Many people waiting for the boat to arrive.

This is the cargo ship transporting essential items like petrol, gas tank and food to the island.

This small boat use for transporting people to the big boat as low tide preventing the big boat coming in the shallow jetty.

Project Earthworms : How To Recycle Your Mailing Paper

You must have received many letters and promotional documents from the banks or from your telco company. Normally after reading it the letters thrown to the dust bin straight away. I received a lot of these mailing and sometimes took a lot of time sorting it out before disposing it. After much thinking, I feel all these mailing can be recycle in a way by feeding to the earthworms and turn it into earthworms casting. You may ask why not sell it to the newspaper man as some of the info on the letters may be confidential for others to read. So give it a try to save the environment in your own capacity.

First, you compile all the letters from the bank or telco which already read or outdated.

Cut it into pieces so that it can break into smaller pieces when soak in water.

All the cut papers soak into water in a bucket or metal container and left it few days to compost naturally before feeding it to the earthworms. If you have a blender it will be better to break the paper into pieces as it accelerate the compost process as I explained in my previous posting.

Lastly, just spread the paper pieces into your earthworm bin and turn into black gold.

There are many restaurants at Bandar Puteri Puchong and this Restaurant Nyonya Imperial quite stand out from others with its 2 storey striking red renovation. This restaurant situated at the corner near the direct selling company Easy Pha-max and should be quite very easy to find.

The menu also uses the red colour theme like the restaurant.

The upper restaurant decorated similarly like the kopitiam style.

The lower floor packed with people but the upper floor seem quiet.

This staircase very European feel.

I feel like eating something spicy and order the Tomyan fried rice. I particularly like the cuttlefish with the rice as it is very fresh.

Fried chicken lobak. Not to my liking as it taste a bit sweet.

Malaysian favourite the Penang fried kuoy tiao. Quite nice as not too oily and the portion also quite a lot. If you looking for something different from kopitiam food @ Bandar Puteri, why not give a try at Nyonya Imperial.

Today task was to redeem a RM100 voucher from Malaysia Airlines Enrich program. The redemption centre located near the old Subang terminal 3.

The office not too difficult to locate with the direction given by the office.

Must register at the security first before entering.

You can clearly see the air traffic control tower just beside the redemtion office.

A small sign so you won't get lost.

Finally found it.

You can browse thru the catalog book provided before deciding what item to redeem.

All the items can be found inside the glass cabinet. Not many item to choose from. If you think the selection like supermarket then you are wrong. Not as fancy as I imagine but just a simple setup that can do the job required.
