    Chinese Opera At Kuan Yim Teng

    Chinese Opera At Kuan Yim Teng (Goddess Of Mercy Temple) – Came back to Penang feels so good, it’s so much colourful and culture-ful when compare to the fast moving city of Kuala Lumpur. Just a few days ago, I was driving around the little city of George Town, passed by the Goddess Of Mercy Temple at Pitt Street and found that there’s a Chinese opera was going on.

    Chinese opera often plays during some religious month of the Goddess. I am not sure about what was it about but I just find it interesting. I parked my car, went to do some prayers and snap a few photos of the Chinese opera set up right in front of the temple.

    I wasn’t very sure about the dialogue, just understand like half-half. If there’s subtitle, it would be great. =D The opera team came all the way from Muar, Johor.

    How to read Chinese in PPS.tv – PPS.tv is a great Chinese P2P video streaming program, there’s so much show to watch on demand, from Chinese show to American show to Japanese show and more. It’s fast and it’s clear but it’s a Chinese program.

    It works the same on Vista and XP. Go to the Control Panel and look for Regional Language Setting.

    There’s 4 tab on Vista and 3 tabs on XP in this window. Go to the last tab, then change the Language for non-Unicode program to Chinese (PRC). Restart your computer and you are ready to watch your favourite show now.

    Good luck.

  • Away to PLKN (Day 41): Lion Dance at Tiger CNY Miao Hui

    Away to PLKN (Day 41): Lion Dance at Tiger CNY Miao Hui

    I got a little bit crazy already and is bad at managing my content. Suddenly I jump out a post about the Miao Hui that happened during Chinese New Year in February, a long time ago. Do you mind or not? Mind also I have to post it up already, who call me to be in NS right now and I’ve no content to write. WTF.

    Anyway, let’s cut the crap and going into something interesting. So this year’s Miao Hui was unlike last year, this year, I sat down with Alvin at the Lion Dance area to see the Lion Dance show from start to end. I didn’t know why last time didn’t go check it out.

    It seems like very interesting because there’s so many people standing by to wait for the performance. Alvin is a fan of Lion Dance, me is not. We got a good spot in front of everyone, most photographers like us where there too!

    Some Chinese said touching the Lion head bring good luck and prosperity. After the dance, the Lion heads were placed on the ground and everyone went to touch it. Me too! Good luck for me. Haha.
