luckily tanjong malim renovate so we have a bigger space for the bussiness

tanjong malim is a silent city
as a young blood, I like the chill working environment here
I married to my husband from oversea I feel that the local community gives respect to us as a part of the locals rather then in the urban cities like kl that treated us like outsiders
less of the inherit cause my family business need to closed
land use in tanjung already maximum development so the new development will be outside of the boundary of tanjung malim
But incase of market connect to the restaurant so I have to quit out and find another space for my chinese restaurant incase of religion issues.
I will always fight for my identity, to make our Chinese culture can maintain and alive.
although sale is not good, but I will work until I cannot work because my customer still need my skill.
