Jalan Tun H.S. Lee



These pre-war shophouses remind me of buildings in my hometown, Melaka. They make me feel like I am being back home.  I will continue to post photos of old buildings in Chinatown for the next few days until I run out of them. Ha ha...that won't take too long as my inventory is rather low.

I am hoping to buy a Canon EOS650D camera soon and go out with lotsa motivation to take photos.  My inspiration has been low lately. That explains my absence from posting recently.  Probably a new toy will make me go out to shoot photos more often.

A Glimpse into the Past



This dim sum restaurant, Yook Woo Hin (read more here, The Star) closed its business on National Day, i.e. 31 August, after been in business for 84 years.  The building it occupied has been sold by the landlord  for the mass rapid train development project.

A glimpse into the past ~ Yook Woo Hin Restaurant & Kwong Fook Wing Tailor:

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
