fisherman's friend
The once a year visit to malaysian relative and to pray can be such an educational tour today.
Before i get into the main topic about fish.
Just want to quickly mention about the incident when our family were passing through the custom.
Brother was stopped by the custom and wasn't allowed to pass as his passport isn't vaild anymore! SO, the effort of waking up early in the morning and rushing down to changi ferry terminal from cck was futile for him. OUT he go! and the rest of us made our way to malaysia.
After the usual praying part which is almost the same as what we did last yr.

We headed down to my cousin's fish farm.
(actually, according to the investment percentage and verbal agreement, we actually 'own' the farm in a way. But due to some forseen reasons, we dont really bother who own the farm.... THAT will be another story for another time)

For the past 20 yrs, cousin was just rearing the fish, grow it big and sell. This year, he has advanced to move on to something bigger.
This tub here contains fish eggs. Yes, he is now producing fish eggs to see to others to rear.
In short, he 'harvest' the fish eggs from his captivated fish and sell. Don't let my description fool you, the process is actually very tricky and complex. ALot of details were omitted due to trade secrets.
Guess how fish eggs at the volume of 1 (rice) bowl cost?
$1000!
However, the amount of fish eggs they harvest were just too much (1 tub), that he is willing to drain them, the excess, away (as seen on the pic), then to spoil his own market.
These eggs were harvested yesterday and were supposed to hatch by now... off they go back to the sea!
Rmb the malaysian children who visted me during cny?

They are back! and this time with a vengence and IN THEIR OWN TERRITORY!
Wonder why he needs to change his clothes so often within a span of ...4 hrs?? Dont be fooled by his innocent appearance, this is the most cunning out of the three. He moves with a agility of a panter, for he can suddenly snatch my spectacle away as a lightning fast speed. he screech like a banchee! He has the destructive force capable to bring down the entire house!
And This is the middle child! haha

Speaking about courage, there are two people from the unit that gave me the courage to do stuff which i've never thought i have the ability to.One of them his birthday is on 8th feb.The other one is on 20th april... (i think)...I'm already started preparing something nice for them today"
Guess what? the second person's birthday is today! let me just write this down, 06 april.
Coincidentally, he too is stuck in camp.
Well, as what i told sheng xiang before,'if you dont want the gift which is meant for you, you can might as well throw it away". Whatever i intend to give him will be disposed off. Just too bad for him.
I just sent him a greetings "Hey! happy birthday to you. Actually wanted to get you something but i really don't have the time. So too bad for you. But my greetings will surely be the best gift anyone can get right? so enjoy and take care! oh ya.. and good luck.. heh heh"
