    I think the local Cino called the building "chap-sa-chan-lau" (bagune tigobelah tikat). U can ask yr Chinese fren 2 verify it.

    those days, the term "bangunan 13 tingkat" quite popular as the building was the highest in town .....

    I want to share a story while, I want to make a MyKad for my child whom has already achieved 12 years of age. I come very early, just barely the office of National Registration Department opened. After their officials just bring up the computer system, he told us the computer's line is down. But he said according to his experiences, the off-line might be long but it also might just take a few minutes. One of the client like me, while mumbling, just returned, because he thought, it must be long. But, I didn't go away, because according to the official, it's might be long or it's might just a few minutes only. After a few minutes, not more than 10 minutes, the official announced our line was already okay, so we can proceed with our intentions to do the MyKad. The guy whom just left, I didn't notice if he would come back. So, according to Islamic teaching, " Sabar itu separuh daripada iman " which if translated literally into English would be, the Patience are half of the Iman .
