My Town. My Kampar

I spent 13 formative years in Kampar, Perak. Thanks to tin ore, it was a bustling and rich town in the 70s and early 80s. I truly believed Kampar was one of the most happening places then. Went back to Kampar recently (thankfully, never did severe any ties with Kampar though) and realised that I don't really know the place in the first place. But Kampar is still my kind of town.

Main Street, Kampar.
Spectacular view of Kampar. Nice, eh?

Majlis Ana&Hasri

Last Saturday, Kak's eldest daughter Farhana bertunang. Bertunang dengan Cikgu Hasri. Majlis bertunang amat2 ler meriah. Pihak lelaki jer bawak 25 bekas hantaran. Pihak kami pun lebih kurang jer. Meriah sungguh. Nasib baik rumah lapang dan luas. Disamping tu sibongsu Farid pun tumpang sekaki - majlis berkhatan dia.

Apapun enjoy sangat dapat berkumpul bersama bersuka ria dan bergelak ketawa. Lama tak pergi majlis kawin/tunang yang seseronok ini. InsyAllah nanti majlis perkahwinan semeriah ini.
