"Door God" in my office

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

In one of the particular floors in my office, everybody feels very safe n enjoy working there as there is a pair of DOOR GOD 门神 watching out the threats for the whole team, safeguarding everyone to make sure the atmosphere is peace and harmony. no body will get hurt by any threats fr the kiasu country down there, fr the angmo countries, fr the smile in front cucuk belakang 笑里藏刀 countries up there..

feel so safe~~ not even a single insect can trespass to pollute the air, the entrance to the floor just like below...

nxt yr, everything has changed... if u still remember a previous blog fr me, one of the door gods is gone... the flr is no longer blessed with peace, it's vulnerable to any attack n haunting every corner~~

those at the flr, u'all gotta b prepared... but perhaps, may b and who knows a female god who just bck to work in office could b the savior like this buddha...

everyone hopes so...

A Long Hunger Dinner

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

It has been 8 months+ i din get a bite on this king of local fruits!!! i was on medicine which prohibited me fr eating, then went for an "andy lau" surgery/operation... finally when i was looking something for my dinner n i saw the familiar lorry parked at the restaurant... this lorry is where i usually buy liulian, cheap, nice, n quality assured! hihi... i m the regular customer till he asked me "wahlau eh, kiu pa ni bo kua teo lu" (hundred yrs nvr see me)... i asked for ang hei (red prawn, my favorite species), small like apple... he explained "liu lian tan balu ka start nia, ko takang loh hor, balu bo tat jia... 1 kilo ai RM20 leh" (now onli season starts, somemore rainy season, not worth eating now cos RM20/kg)... see, this is one of the reasons i like to buy fr him 'cos he is honest... then i mah warm up my stomach wit "normal no brand" one loh, RM5 for one...


this xmas must reimburse wat i had missed out for 8 months when i north-up!! liulian, i luv u!!!

A Sad Moment for A Cat

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

Just bck fr karaoke... it was the belated birdday celebration for "a cat" aka ahmiao in hokkien ... unfortunately it turned up "misery" by an annoucement...

ahmiao was sitting right in front of the screen to program songs... he then said to me "eh this song very good for us now, for team building..." - "tomorrow will be better", a chn song like "we are the world" type one (1st hint)... dun care wat song u wan to sing la, we just wan to sing most we can in the 4 hrs window... i ma said "good, let's go for it" since the song just fit into the theme of the session, a retro session, most oldies all come out to the list... oldies not tat old till 1957 la... 70s 80s one... we r all young ppl :p

LKH din sing better man tonite, nor din he sing 5 hundreds oso but instead some lam kor, soft soft lovely one... cool taikor nowadays veli friendly liao, cool at the right time when work n smile to everyone any other time... hmm 爱情的魔力实在是无法挡啊!! in hokkien, ai jeng eh morsook sipeh beh tahan ar!! or magic of luv very powerful ar!! so 500 punye songs go into his archive liao... he no need 500 to cure his glass heart...

then ahmiao punye tomolo will b better came up liao...since this was for team building, so i mah said something "ok, we do not know who's the next will leave, we do not know when we can sit together n sing... n since we r here tonite, let's wish everybody a better tomolo... ... ..." then ahmiao hinted something like "yeah, u nvr know..." (2nd hint) followed by another song 姜育恒's 再回首 (look back again)... i mah said "again, we do not know when we will b apart, let's enjoy the moment now n look back for good memories in future..." just enuf time b4 the song start, ahmiao said to everyone "oh, he oledie said all the speech i wanted to say tonite" uh-oh... then onli we noticed the atmosphere changed, it's an annoucement!! of course we din care much tat time, we r there to sing for fun, not for sadness (joking ler... later ahmiao feel sad)... then the theme for the karaoke immediately changed!!

we start digging out all songs related to fren, farewell, apart etc... this one normal reaction la... suddenly we saw 500 on the big screen... huh?? LKH suddenly like bck to old time liao, cool like ice liao, but this time around his eyes looked watery and the eye brows senget down... he then sang 500 punye song, as usual, shout like got needle cucuk kat punggung... then onli we noticed ahmiao punye annoucement got so big effect on LKH... LKH looked so sad, so depressed, so demotivated... aiya all negative feelings la... we all understand, they lived in the same room for >2 yrs, sure got kamching one even oledie broke off for a yr +...

no body got the chance to get the remote anymore, LKH holding it, programmed all songs to express his "luv" to ahmiao, those songs with lyrics "i missed u so much" "i can't live w/o u" "u go w/o notice" "baby dun leave me, bring me along" "baby dun go" "how can i wake up tomolo" "miss u luv u" "how could u leave me" "u betrayed me" etc etc... of course kenot miss out his 500 songs la... last time used to b 1 small needle cucuk, tonite he like kena cucuk by dozens of needles, shout till like losing the loved one... and we confirmed he got deep deep luv (aiyor.. we missed out "how deep is ur luv") wit ahmiao... of course u'd know his cool style one la, he where got express in words one... we pity him loh, we mah abit strugling to sing all those songs on bhalf of LKH to ahmiao loh... hope ahmiao caught all hidden meaning fr the lyrics la... tat's all we could help... n LKH a "better man" liao, hope ahmiao can reconsider... wahahaha!!!

n so nxt wk xmas eve steamboat celeb will b a farewell again... possibly another annoucement... u nvr know~

anyway, wish him all way smooth wind 一路顺风 la... dun half way disappear 半路失踪 cos he could b the front liner to build the future for everyone who is suffering now in the office ;)

go buy empat ekor 1312 or 1213 - the day to b hardcoded into memory.

Tan lui kong (grabbed the chance to intrude my network while i was on biz trip! my 3com nic, w/less netgear n dsl modem all kaput in one time!! fortunately my pc n other devices are all safe!!

Hihi, luckily my wallet no need to shrink down, my bro bought this dlink all-in-one... sad it has no ddns support, thus restricts me fr setting up my server... gotta find someway to workaround this.

Wagyu Beef

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

Today i m finally free - my boss has gone back to ffx after 2 wks in AP. after the china town's rolex hunting for him, he wanted to go for a "better" dinner for his last day in kl, so he suggested to go bck to mandarin oriental, n he can go bck to his room right after the dinner n catch up the flight.

upon arrival at the hotel, i thought of bringing him to the chinese restaurant, getting some unusual dim sum like abalone siew mai, shark fin porridge etc, then i saw in the directory the japaness restaurant at P1 level... hmmm since i tried the chinese restaurant b4, y not giv a try on the japanese food... hihi, since he is paying...then went dwn to the restaurant... wow, no one dining in the restaurant... looks like the price is gonna to b killing, but who cares??!!

flipped thru the menu, sushi, udon, sashimi etc all like very normal one... then 1 caught my attention - shabu shabu. at first i thought it was sabun sabun, n was curious y japanese eat sabun one... then looked at the price... got 2 types of beef, 1 called aust. beef - RM98 per pax, n the other one is aust. wagyu beef - RM188 per pax... looks "interesting" on the price... i mah kekek pretend ask him wat is shabu shabu har?? then this boss har, din answer me but smiled bck to me, n told me "u were looking at that? i was thinking the same"... lke tat mean i got approval liao lah... then looked more details, minimum order must b 2 pax, so confirmed la!! no need think so much liao!!! i ordered 2 pax of aust. wagyu beef

shabu shabu actually like chinese steamboat, but onli comes wit vege and the beef. so u put the vege into the soup just like how u eat steamboat. sure i first tried on the beef, within seconds, the beef turned from red to dark grey color, so fast it gets cooked... okok no need to talk, let's try... WOOOOOWWWWWWWWW!!! i dunno how to explain, the beef just melt in my mouth, the texture was soooooooo smooth... n no need any sauce, chilis, just eat plain n it's sweet!!! jin beh tahan!!! the beef i had in the past most of them were like chewing gum... or rubber band, this one just put into ur mouth, n it melt!! the angmo boss sure like beef la, he looked at my face expression oso beh tahan liao, kiasu like tat get 1 slice n dumped it into the soup... hehehe... he got same face expression like me... somemore advised me must try kobe beef if i go jpn.

then come to the bill time... heheh RM 188*2 + 15% tax + drinks (beer + wine) = RM580!!!! 2 for RM580!! RM290 per pax!! the most expensive meal i ever had in malaysia!!! wahahaha... my boss like "hmm... not bad, just onli USD 156". n he said once in a while must enjoy like tat since most of our meals during trip were inexpensive...

now RM290 is my record for a meal in m'sia... must find chance to break this record again :p

Genting Everywhere in M'sia....

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

See this pic... it's taken today on my way back to home at the intersection of Mehameru-Jln Duta. It isn't at nite, just about 6:30pm+, the evening is just look already 8pm+ due to haze... the blury front view partially attributed by my shakey hands while steering my laopok car, but it was majorly due to haze... even with eye sight, u can see double shadow around the brake light... 1 strange thing is other areas of KL were all ok i.e. imbi, klcc etc, not clear but not that hazy and need not switch on light, but when i drove into jln duta, i was like suddenly driving uphill to genting, or may be london! stucked there for 20min for a short distance, as short as 1km, just bcos the sight is limited to ~4 5km... then when i passed the jln semantan, suddenly the surrounding turned brighter and haze level "disappearred" just as par as kl area...

hmmm... wat an x file?? may b tat area is a valley, or may b it's "something" else (phew, just passed lunar july)...

Life is like...

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~


Few months ago, the bkk expat came bck to town n we talked about what is life - life is like a colorful corridor? then the MC Queen (till 9 Oct) so bored at home and surfed some fortune teller website to tell what's life. and now even at US i got this note after a dinner @ PF Chang, Woodlands, TX~


Although i just made a BIG decision recently, but do i really need to start blogging bout "life is like a toilet"??!! n my new job sounds to me that i m gonna "philo" my customers wit such "theories" too, oh gosh!! tell me what is life then...

Mission Impossible 2

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

Phew~~ i m safe, finally, after 911 and few flight incidents in the States. Reached TPE, Tapei In'tl Airport from LAX.

Of course it's not the time to relek… battle is still on... I am still battling a half-accomplished mission.




i look outside...







i looked inside...





eh!! is it there??






found it!!!!!

Rushed into the shop, the shopkeeper looked at me one kind – what is this siaokia doing here? Of course mah, I don't look like a guy who would shop in such feminine shop one, selling all kinds of lady's bags. What to do??? For the sake of buying “insurance” for my mid-term investment, hopefully it's worthy for my ROI in errrr…. 9 yrs time.

I then popped up in front of the female shopkeeper, showed her the picture from my PDA. Immediately she went to a locked stock drawer, came back with the wristlets, not only 1 but 3 in different colors. Bingo! That's what I was looking for!!! to further confirm, i asked her to give me a ruler 7" the width n 4" the height. PERFECT! all ngam, just like wat described in the picture! looked at the price tag - NT 2040. err... how much har?? then she converted to USD – USD 68!! Oh gosh, looked like my mission was going to be a misery. Commander (the in law) told me the ceiling price I could go was USD 48! USD 20 extra = RM 75. Well well well, definitely failing the mission is not what I wanted after overworked myself in shopping from US, to IAX Airport, then LAX Airport and flying across the Pacific Ocean to TPE… I then called to the commander, she answered with blur blur sound… hehehe early 6+am KL (hope she is not halfway "making" another "long-term" for me). I told her the price, and I was relieved with her next instruction – cancel the mission!!! Whahaha… that means, I did NOT fail my mission, but was “instructed” to abandon the mission!

So, I declare MISSION ACCOMPLISHED and VICTORY!!!

Just ngam ngam the time to depart. I mah happily go check in.

"Mr Jacko, we upgraded your seat to First Class at seat 3K." Wahahaha... I got rewarded right away on my accomplishment!!!

Mission Impossible 1

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~


My potential mid-term's mom in law gave a test to me. she instructed me to buy something for her during my US business trip... 1 of the missions was accomplished, another one looks like hopeless liao :(

Mission code name: COACH

Ang Mo vs. Our Culture 2

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

i just recalled this... it happened while on the way to LA. 1 angmo fr michigan (spelling correct??) sat bside me... upon u go onboard n settle down, the stewardess would come n ask u for a welcome drink, so i mah usually asked for apple juice loh. then the angmo called for something special one, i think it's peach mix orange (or watever). the drink served, i was just happily enjoy my juice, then the angmo asked for a stir. so at first, everything just like normal la, he needed to stir his mixed juice... then i saw him used tissue to clean the stir, stood up, opened up the compartment, n keep the stir in his handcarry... oooo ok, i tok onli chinese or m'sian do such thing...now i realize angmo oso do...

after take off, again, a before meal drink was served, the angmo asked for the same thing, this time he mentioned to serve him wit the stir... i happily swithc on my archos to play MTVs. i got 1 new tissue left on the arm rest, the angmo then asked me if i still wan the tissue, i said go ahead use it. once more, he wiped the stir wit the tissue, stood up, opened the compartment, keep the stir into his bag... i was finding reason for him... hmmm 1 not enuf, he may need 2 for him n his wife...

wahlau eh, i start beh tahan liao thru out the 11+ hrs flight. i counted how many times he replayed the scene, it's SEVEN times 7!!! this didnot incld X times that i wasnt at my seat, walked to the back, read magazine, sleep etc... so greedy!! y he need so many?? he sell cendol ar? or open mamak at michigan, need to teh-o ice limau??

morale of the story: ppl always say we m'sian o asian like to take advantage, nvr let go any free stuff, free food etc... go hotel sure sapu all free stuff like shampoo, soap, towel, toilet paper keep it in the bag everyday b4 housekeeping so housekeeper can provide new one etc... but i think this is not culture inheritance, it's more on individual's personality... angmo oso do like this, do 7 times somemore... there's a survey done by reader digest previously on this topic (recently on the politeness ), saying asian tend to do all this shameful thingy, i just wonder what would the author (o whoever conducted the survey) think if the author was sitting at my place watching the action.

Ang Mo vs. Our Culture

~ This blog was migrated from my old site ~

Found out this culture difference in angmo country...

i m on business trip at woodlands, texas. arrived 2 days earlier, so nothing to do mah lepak around the mall nearby to my hotel. then when i was capturing photos, i heard peepoo peepoo fr far to near. oh, the fire engine, look different than the one in our country, it looks canggih like a real professional fire engine, whereas ours like alam flora rubbish truck in red color. it stopped in front of me, then only i noticed a XXXXL lady was sitting on the road divider, with 2 guards surrounded her... the fireman quickly ran down to the lady, dunno wat they do over there, i was quite far away tat time, then i heard kudok kudok... wahlau eh, a red colored "zorro" suddenly came into the my sight, so smart... somemore it's a lady cop. she came not to show off one, she came to ctrl the traffic over there... at the junction, i saw another horse riding cop over there to stop the cars from entering the street. my "kepo character" made me very curious wat happen to that lady liao, got big fire engine, 4 guards, and 2 zorros rush in just for her... then i heard yeewoo yeewoo, the ambulance came. cool, less than 4 min (i guess), all rescue teams arrived at the incident place!! i slowly walked closer n closer to peep, pretending i m a tourist taking photos, but suddenly i found out something wrong: why no crowd surrounding the lady or the incident place??? the public just walk passed the lady (and the fireman), of course stopped for a while (less than 5 sec) to see what happen then leave, no one actually stay there to watch the scene. then i saw a guy in white shirt and cap ran to the zorro. hehehe... sure angmo oso kepo one like this guy... i heard he said to the zorro "do u wan me to help on the traffic?" and he turned to another guy and passed the message. apparently he and the guy are on vallet parking business, his fren then stopped all the cars fr the other end and asked all the drivers to U turn out. he told some of the drivers "vallet parking not available temporarily". damn!! now i realized 3 differences:

1. Efficiency

Angmo: I dunno when the case was reported, but in a short period proven by the ambulance, all rescue teams were there to standby for necessary rescue, even for just a lady who is still conscious tat time.

Our country: u try calling 999 or 994, see what happened. In our country, the officer always arrive AFTER the robber finished their business and comfortably leave the place. Mix FM Breakfast show got 1 time talked about this topic - 1 caller shared that she called to 999 for an ambulance, 999 told her "suma ambulance penuh ler, kena tunggu". Then when the ambulance arrive after an hour +, her dad couldn't wait and passed away...

2. Humanity vs. $$

Angmo: the white shirt guy could just drop the business to give way to the rescue. Although the cops were there, but he could still continue business at the side.

Our country: if the guy in our country, first thing come out fr the mouth is not "do u wan me to help on the traffic" but "tiu nia seng, wan to die oso die other place la, dun disturb my business mah".

3. Kepo or not kepo

Angmo: since the public think they can't help and with cops n fireman arround, they just walk pass so they don't disrupt the rescue.

Our country: 1 phenomenon in our country highway - 1 side of the highway accident, the other direction sure jam like hell. or what u can try to do is, stop ur car at emergency lane in NKVE, put on hazardous warning light (double signal), go down the car, stand at the side n drink water. within 5 min, u can see both directions of the highway jam liao. cool huh? u can oso try shout "tolong tolong, perompak!!" see got someone help u or not. but not too bad these days, sometimes read paper oso got some good stories...

so what does the story tell? up to u loh... i m not the one who think angmo punye bulan always rounder n brighter, but this tells us what is "developed" country. wawasan 2020??!! dream on...

Pulau Ketam

~This blog was migrated from my old site~

About the pulau... hmmm. Pulau Ketam actually is not a pulau, it has no solid soil ground, all mud... so you would not "step" on the pulau (except those goldfish uncle, see below), but just walking "on top" of the pulau by the wooden made path, unless you fall down to the mud la - by yourself, not by the broken wood, the wooden path is constructed even stronger than Twin Towers concrete, at least the Kepong bridge. This is something I guess crab people (ketam residents) should be very proud of.

Why call Pulau Ketam not Pulau Sekpan 石斑 or Pulau Long Har 龙虾?hehe.. i will reveal the truth later...

The last time i went there was... errr.... about 9 yrs back. the ferry just looked like oridinary fishing boat with chairs n stools... no a/c, n if u sit on top of the engine room, u can sell cha siew rice 叉烧饭 when u reach the island (or tandoori if u r indian), 'cos ur butt could hv been roasted for an hour trip. so if u hv a big fatty 3-layered butt (hokkien called san-cham ba 三层肉), good money for u... oso, tat time no mp3 player, just walkman, n pointless to play ur walkwan with koss or senheiser headphones, u would feel like in sepang F1 circuit if u sit around the engine room, the engine VrOOOmmmm for an hour +...

after an hour + trip, u reach the jetty. watch out ur very first step onto the island, dun worry la, no ketam there waiting to cramp u, just veli slippery. but when u go on the wooden made path heading to island, u better watch n think twice for every single inch u step forward... again, no crab there, it's something that is same color with the wood, sometime it's darker like dark choc, sometime it's lighther n brownish like cadbuary. hmmm... or u might see some brownish with red like ABC gula merah (this one fr sick creature)... n wat is that???!!! u got it?? it's "kao sai" loh, a.k.a dog shit or "kao si" in cantonese. we, the pa sang gang gave another name to pulau ketam tat time, namely pulau kaosai... one of my frens was very fortunate to bcome the very first king of the pulau, the KaoSai Ong (ong = king), he was the first one and only one in our gang to step on kaosai in ketam, i remember not only once, but twice!! but dun laugh first, he could b replaying the history: once upon a time, when the first crab person, probably a fisherman discovered here, he oso encountered the same incident like my fren, he stepped on a kaosai n the aftermatch kaosai looked like a ketam shape, then since the pulau has no name yet, he mah named it pulau ketam loh... of course he initially planned to name it pulau kaosai, but u know la, kaosai not so nice to hear mah, n if he tell ppl he caught the fresh crabs n fishes fr pulau kaosai (sound like fresh kaosai leh), u think those market 3ku 6po 三姑六婆 will still buy fr him ar??? if they do, no matter how they cook the crab n fish, steam fry or sweet sour, phychoologically sure the seafood smell kaosai la... tat's how the name of the pulau came from, believe o not?? actually just bullshit here... :p the origin of the name was bcos many ketams thr la

but dun prlay prlay wor... in 9 yrs time, we can upgrade ourselves fr walkman to ipod, diary to blog, crab ppl oso can upgrade one leh... when reached jetty this time, no more "fishing ferry", the new ferry is airconditioned!! if u r KL boy/gal, dun always langsi u r more canggih advance than sakai fr sabah sarawak, at least they r better than us at "marine automobile industry" leh, the a/c ferry o speedboat is "imported" from them!! somemore is used unit, so east m'sian oso can langsi tat we reuse their rubbish. of course the ticket fare is like cinema ticket la, 100% increase, from 3 to 6 bucks.

since it's a/c, n if u know me or look at my head photo in the blog, i knocked off the whole boat trip... zzZZZzzzz till we reached ketam, the trip is just ~30min ride.

walked up the jetty, heading toward the island, noticed that the "main road" is no longer in brown, but in grey color! since i've been here last time, i still hold the memories, i thought the crab ppl painted the road so the brownish item can be easily spotted in grey road :p (Ah Q's spirit). walked closer, oh! the wooden path is replaced with cement path, no wonder it's in grey la. see la, crab is oso advancing like us leh... regardless the cemented path, i was still damn extra extreme kanjiong careful of my steps to watch out the "brownish object", surprisingly i din see any!!!!! i just feel tat ketam is now much much better than paris now. in paris, when u walk on their street, it's the same experience like u walk in ketam 9 yrs ago!

not to forget the toilet... look at the photo, it's the common toilet in ketam back to 9 yrs ago. so for gals they feel veli uncomfortable to use the toilet, especially low tide period, u nvr know if there's a goldfish uncle 金鱼伯伯 walking on the mud to peep :p But now fear no more, the toilet has evolved like 5 stars hotel toilet liao, unless ppl install hidden camera la...

in the past, some pampered ppl when they go ketam, after taking the meals, sure they laosai lao till ka neng kenot walk. y leh? dun blame the seafood wor, the seafood is guaranteed fresh one... the restaurant not clean? actually not oso, i believe if u can eat in kedai kopi in jalan imbi or hawker centers in jalan alor, u can oso eat in ketam restaurant. then wat? we hv RO reverse osmosis water in mainland, ketam got OR water (not KFC's OR chicken), it's Ordinary Rain water... so the plain water in ketam taste a bit different fr our pipe water, n of course the rain water has no cleaning or chemical process like wat we do for our pipe water at home, so laosai medicine or 保济丸 is good to hv with u during tat old time. now? still got OR water la, but they oso got pipe water liao like us in mainland. the pipe water is all the way coming from kapar town, with a long long undersea pipe transmiting the water to ketam. i dunno how long the pipe la, but sound canggih to me...

1 thing very important to mention, we r still limited to astro entertainment on the mainland, ppl there actually got 5-ft satelite dish to receive china, hk n taiwan channels for FREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! no monthly fee, no monthly bill, all to pay is the 1 off installation + decoder, for a mere of RM 400!!! i can't take photo of it since it's illegal by law. of course hehehee... me as pa sang lang abit like s'poren one, veli kiasu one... so i got the "distributor" contact liao, checking some info, n looking for way to install the dish at my house, so no need to dl hk series thru the snail streamyx anymore... can summore record it by my DVR, burn to DVD n sell it... wahahaha, then bcome one of the most famous business taukeh in pa sang. famous not bcos of the good business mind, but bcos kena lockup in klg balai polis next to balai bomba... n now u can on a/c in the house n watch tv 24x7 liao. of course a/c n tv is 24x7 la as long as u like to on it, u sure scold me dumbo now... but tell u wat, last time ketam onli got few hrs electricity supply, i think it's fr 6pm till 6am daily, so fr 6:01am till 5:59pm no electric supply, simply bcos at 6am onwards, all out to school or work (fishing) liao, only left few ppl to stay at home to use electricity... so u can't enjoy at home like in city home, unless ur a/c n tv is run by coal la... now everything thing there is just emerged like u r in the city, or at least like kuala selangor or lumut, u dun feel urself in an island wit no basic facility.

tat's all the differences i spotted during my trip. i din actually walk around, actually nothing to walk around too, nothing unique to buy for souvenir, unless u wan to buy kiamhu 咸鱼 salted fish la... i slept about 4am+ after EPL n was pulled off the bed at 7+am, with big hot redish sun on top, so i caged myself the whole day in an a/c house in ketam, watching china kuanxi 广西 beauty pageants show... this time around din make it to fish farm on the sea, n din take many photos, just lazy...

nevertheless, pulau ketam is still a recommended place to tour to if u've nvr been there. go wit ur gang there for a day trip o a 2d1n trip (hotel onli RM80/nite inclusive of meals) will still bring u joy n fun, regardless its out of city infrastructure there. u can go visit fish farm (n stay there), get some boat rides to some other fishing spots or see how ppl fish etc. but to divers - no dive spot in ketam, the sea water is like milo ice.

p/s: wahlau eh, now onli i noticed i talk too much liao... paiseh~
