#klangboleh

I started doing this 3 years ago when I realised that all the nice branded goods shops always close down when they are opened in Klang when padahal, I'm a Klangite and I also buy these brands...

Just for example, Roxy just closed in Aeon Bukit Tinggi Klang... I buy Roxy, so why did it close down? Because we would rather buy it in Pavillion? 

Although, this event didn't happen in Klang but I am soooooo proud to celebrate the Hen's Party of my favourite Primary School Classmate from SRK Convent (2) Klang! 

This babe and I use to go to the same primary school. Super popular for being skinny, with an extremely high nose, and a cheery personality. Though she now lives in Singapore, our lives started in Klang.

Sometimes, I feel that if Malaysia isn't so unsafe, perhaps there will be more of us here... :(

Cafe 1986

There has been a lot of new cafes sprouting out in Klang recently and I thought I should just share some of my experiences la! I mean, none of us like to get ripped off paying for bloody expensive terribly made coffee right? 

I thought the table arrangements were good considering it was quite pack and I didn't feel all cramped up anywhere. 

They don't have a lot of plug points close to the tables but they did generously provide a extension chord where you can charge up your stuff! 

I liked that the WIFI was also speedy which is much better compared to Pacific Coffee. 

There are 3 tables outside that sits 4 each for smokers. So if you're a smoker, it's pretty awesome. ( I quit a month ago, YAY!)

The coffee itself was average but I'm having bronchitis and my tastebuds are pretty off lately.

Found the price to be reasonable. I mean, PappaRich charges RM3.50 for Teh ais, anywhere is more reasonable than that kan?

Overall a nice cafe experience, can definitely see myself working there. 

As always, supporting local businesses to majukan Klang! You can check out their FB page for more info here and the address is as follow: 

This post is inspired by the fact that MyTeksi just grabbed a whopping $250m in Series D! Another Malaysian Entrepreneur to be in every newspaper for the next year. :) 

I take taxi once every 2 weeks from Klang to Sunway and Sunway to Klang, because as a bootstrapping entrepreneur, living in Klang is cheaper than living in Singapore, but my customers are there, so bohhuat (no choice) have to travel back and forth. 

I love the MyTeksi app but the Klang taxi drivers are real gangsters, after they win the bid, they will call you and start haggering. So after a few tries, I finally found 2 taxi drivers that I have tried and don't mind paying

Jay - 0163310718 - Jay is a super honest cab driver that goes by the meter and he is safe (PS. He has a wife and kid he loves so much and talks about all the time). He is also quite entertaining, he can talk on and on about the Indian culture, Indian Gods, Hinduism, Social casting in the Indian society and so much more... I always get out of the cab so much more knowledgable. He even told me where the best Banana Leaf rice is in Klang. :) 

Besides Jay, there is Jeffri - 0163060622. Much like Jay, Jeffri is safe and his car is newer. However, Jeffri plays a Quran type channel in his car so unless you want to hear the Quran chanted all throughout the journey, dont get on his cab. He is one who would hagger but he is fairly reasonable still. 

Besides Jay & Jeffri, a few places you can look for cabs are:

1. At Premiere Hotel, Bukit Tinggi 1

2. Aeon Bukit Tinggi, at the entrance facing Bandar Botanic.
