l_joo Says: After school, boys and girls were waiting for parents or buses to pick them up, I stopped my car here to ask them about directions to buy biscuits, they seemed so proud to point to me the way, so happy.
l_joo Says: Kiung Chow Hoey Kwan is like a club for early days Chinese immigrants, for them to seek helps and meet friends from same village. Most old towns in Malaysia has at least one or two, is a must then but not much of use in modern days.
