Nice new double storey semi-detached house for sale @ Polarwood, Kuching
A good friend of mine has decided to sell off his double storey semi-detached house located in the very nice neighbourhood of Polarwood in Kuching for the asking price of RM462,000/- or nearest offer. It’s unfurnished but comes with new curtains and complete with decorative lightings. I came to know about this when I caught up with him for lunch. Here’s the video of the drive to this new house (which has never been lived in) from the entrance of the estate. As you can see there are only detached and semi-detached houses in this housing estate.
If you’re looking for a new place to stay in Kuching, it’s worth taking a look as it’s conveniently less than 5 minutes drive to the Kuching International Airport. To check it out, call 016-862 6986 for a viewing appointment.

A particularly relaxing spot @ Taunovo Bay Resort & Spa, Fiji 16th February 2008
Here’s wishing you a relaxing weekend … and best of luck to the candidates vying for their parliamentary seat(s) in the Elections tomorrow. Unfortunately it’s all ho-hum to me … so can someone wake me up when it’s all over? ZZzzzzzz

If you particularly like tapiocas (cassavas) and yams, then you’re going to be particularly happy when you visit Fiji as it is their staple food there and readily available everywhere. I can understand its popularity as they store well (for months), can be cooked in a variety of ways, tasty and are nutritious. They must grow easily there too as I understand that yams can be harvested in 9 to 12 months and can yield about a hundred more times of yam than the amount that was planted! The cassavas grows even faster - about six to nine months after planting, most varieties are ready for harvesting.
I have honestly never seen such abundance and sizes of them until I saw them at the local markets, road sides and outside supermarkets.
We really did not have much free time as I would have love to taste them cooked in the traditional “lovo’ manner - underground oven or barbeque.
Popular fried Fijian chips.
Please do not ask me the differences between them as you can click for more information on taro, cassava and yam.

One would expect to find fresh seafood in Fiji, it being an island(s) Republic and we spotted some offered for sale on a roadside stall displayed on a makeshift table as we drove along one of the main roads in Nadi, Fiji.
There were fresh lobsters and crabs for sale and some are of the types that I’ve never seen before. They don’t sell them by weight or by pieces but rather by ‘bunches’; so you’ve got to choose which of the bunched up lobsters or crabs that you like and start bargaining with the seller.
We didn’t buy any as we’d crabs just the night before. In hindsight it was a bad decision; as not buying these beauties still haunt me till today!

Actually Mohd Firdouz and Nazarrudin, both 26, are having a splashing time of their life on Sungai Sarawak Kiri @ Borneo Highlands on the 9th February 2008. And as you can see they seem to have a thingy for waterfalls - but then who can blame them!
