Merry Christmas At Langkawi

Celebrate Christmas with Cikgu James

To all my friends, colleagues and students:

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2009

See my holday's photos at Langkawi Island:

Langkawi comprises a group of 99 tropical islands lying off the north-western coast of Peninsular Malaysia, about 30km from Kuala Perlis and 51km from Kuala Kedah on the mainland. The main island is popularly known as Pulau Langkawi. The islands are blessed with an intriguing heritage of fabulous myths and legends of ogres and gigantic birds, warrious and fairy princesses, battles and romance. As a natural paradise, the islands are perhaps unmatched anywhere else in Southeast Asia.

With a geological history dating back 500 million odd years, the island contains unique rock formations that stir the imagination and baffle the mind. Numerous caves, with their stunning stalactites and stalagmites, taunt the adventurous to unravel their ancient secrets. Fine beaches offer sun-filled days of complete relaxation. The clear emerald waters around the islands are perfect for a host of water spots and recreational activities. The enchanting marine life beneath the waters of Langkawi’s islands also beckon diving enthusiasts. The island in all of its exotic natural splendor, is also home to people renowned for their gentle smiles and warm hospitality.

MALACCA- World Heritage Site of UNESCO

Cikgu James Holdays In Malacca

My first encounter with the history of Malacca was in history class when I was still a kid. I remembered we even made a field trip to the city but I did not feel much about it at that time. I only began to take
the historical value of Malacca seriously after I have been to other countries and seen their rich culture.

Malacca has been listed as a prominent World Heritage Site of UNESCO since 7^th July 2008. today, while the historical elements are well preserved, it is also a vibrant city full of energy and fascination. Centuries of
colonization by the Portuguese, Dutch and the British as well as development of Straits Chinese (Peranakan) culture have influenced the architecture of the town.

My favorite foods in Malacca (Melaka) are Baba Nyonya Asam Laksa and Curry Asam (One bowl cost you Rm3.50 or USD1).  These are the best food in Malacca. If you are new to Malacca, you better visit to Jalan Hang Tuah 'Jonker Walk' to taste it. Another one is 'Chicken Rice Ball' that looks like a ball which also taste good and special. You can try both! Happy visiting to Malaysia Year 2008/09. Happy holidays again to all my students and colleagues in SK Cator Avenue Ipoh.

Cikgu James Likes Exercise

Cikgu James With His New Health Bike

It's has been a long time (i think is almost 3 weeks) I never update my blog. This is because I was busying creating our school website pages. Until today I think our school website is almost done and you can go there to have a look - 'SKCAI.COM'. But make sure to give some comments about my school website so I can upgrade it next time.



Just to inform that due to my hard work on creating the school website and blog all the time after school by just sitting infront of my laptop, so I decided to buy an 'Exercise Machine- Bike Health Stream' for my self. You can see me in the photo riding the health bike in my working room and also my work place with all my IT stuffs like digital camera, 3 in 1 printer, webcam, heafphone, notice board, files and external hard drive to keep all my document and photos. So actually you can claim me as an IT teacher in my school because almost everthing regarding computer I was interested in.

Ok, thats all for today. See you soon. Bye.
Best Regards, Cikgu James
