My immediate reaction after Turkey won the match against the Croat

Selam alaykum

Wie gehts euch? Schön lange habe ich keine email geschrieben. Gestern abend hatte ich das Spiel zwischen turkiye und croatia geschaut. Es kommt ein Gefuhl wie ich in der Moschee das Spiel mit euch zusammen sehen.

Es wird bestimmt sehr heiss dass turkiye in der halbfinale gegen deutschland spielen wurde.

bei mir alles geht sehr gut……im august würde ich inshaallah ein neues baby bekommen.

Inshaallah wenn alles gut geht, fliege ich nach deutschland euch zum besuch. Es hängt davon ab wenn mein “business” gut geht……macht dua für mich…….

ok…..ich wünsche euch alles gute. Sei Allah uns segnet………

1. Stop at the red man without a car in sight.
2. Think in Euros without converting to (Ringgit Malaysia)
3. Start counting time in minutes. For e.g. you know the exact time the trams/trains near my house leaves, so if the next tram is at 8.33, and it takes 12 minutes to walk to the stop, can leave at about 8.20 and not have to wait too long at the stop
4. Change a statement into a question by adding an “or” on the end: We’re not going to be able to play today because of the weather, or?
5. Stopped laughing and wonder what’s there to smile about !
6. When you start telling people back home things in their faces without beating around the bush.
7. When you keep saying BMWhey, Fauwhey, Whey cey etc. !
8. Only drink carbonated water; tap water is tasteless! or when you start diluting every type of drink imaginable with ‘natürliches mineralwasser mit kohlensäure’.
9. When you start to “make” things. Anyone want to make some sport with me this afternoon?
10. When you are asked to bring a dessert to a party and the first thing you think of is Apfelstrüdel.
11. You start wearing Birkestocks with socks… reminds me of my maths professor
12. When you are in this kind of position and shout “ohh Scheiße…!”, instead of “ohh shit..!”
13. You know it’s Germany if there’s a bakery or pharmacy on almost every other street in the town center.
    
14. Separate your trash
    
15. Carry a “4You” backpack.
16. Call your cell phone “handy” and a scientific calculator “pocket calculator”
    
17. Everyone knocks on the table at the end of a meeting…
18. Get a twinge of excitement when walking past a tchibo window
19. You will be asked to show your ausweis (Passport) by the polizei
    
20. The public toilet is damn dry
21. KEBAB Imbiss is everywhere

Giving keropok a bad name

I AM from Kuala Terengganu and have been eating keropok losong from young. True, it is a family business, passed down from one generation to the next. True, the quality of the delicacy fluctuates.

These days there is less fish meat in losong keropok. Many keropok manufacturers add more sago and use fish flavouring instead.

The species of fish originally used has been substituted with low grade fishes.

Notice how your keropok lekor swells up in the frying pan but shrivels minutes after reaching your plate? The secret of keropok lekor that does not shrivel once it is out of the pan: better quality fish, and higher fish content. In short, high protein content. This is a rarity these days.

I am not complaining about the quality of keropok lekor sold in Terengganu. These people have a right to what they’re doing, being the second poorest state in Malaysia.

However, my concern is the keropok lekor sold in Kuala Lumpur that is passed off as keropok losong. It does not in any way resemble the real deal physically. How can it claim to taste like the real thing?

These imitations are giving the Terengganu keropok industry a bad name. I once asked a keropok seller in Sungei Besi, Kuala Lumpur, where his keropok was from and he didn’t know. Some had the cheek to hang up “Keropok lekor Terengganu asli” labels at their stalls.

Back in the 1980s, my aunt sold keropok sent from Kuantan, in Shah Alam. These sago and fish flavoured concoctions would literally turn to stone if not consumed within 30 minutes of frying. Her husband had chipped many a tooth consuming the unsold keropok during his 10 years of selling the poor imitation.

I wouldn’t categorise his keropok as food; they looked more like weapons a hobbit would carry.

I urge the Terengganu state government to do something to ensure that imitations are not passed off for the real thing.

Please, keropok is our heritage. Don’t, because of money-hungry individuals, let our heritage be ruined by F-grade keropok. - WMR
