Islamic city of Malaysia - Kelantan Darul Naim

After 10 hours of balls-shrinking journey from Malacca, with the aircon cyclinder blasting mercilessly from the bus onto my face, finally i stumbled myself on the land of lighting- Kelantan. It's the islamic city of Malaysia governed by Islamic Party of Malaysia with a green flag which have a white ball inside the flag...haha...


fighting with PAS in Kelantan is a ball-shrinking task for BN..haha~~humiliation~



Firstly, an interesting plat number of a Proton Wira and the logo of Al Rajhi Bank. Well, it is quite common to see a car with such kind of plat number and the Al Rajhi Bank is in every states of Malaysia. But it's just so co-incident that i saw both things at once. So, i manage to take pictures for them.

Another interesting fact about kelantan is that every single word on shops or supermarkets comes along with Jawi translation.


even tesco comes along with jawi translation too





The three girls inside the Ambank advertisement board supposedly aren't wearing any tudung. But, at kelantan, they ought to.

Let me bring you all to Pasar Besar Siti Khadijah, the famous market at Kelantan.


Pasar Besar Siti Khadijah (Siti Khadijah Central Market) in Kota Bharu is arguably the most oft-photographed market in Malaysia. perhaps, it is due to the unique architecture of the market which comes in 3-storeys, orthogonal building with transparent dome roof with spiderweb frame. This translucent roof enables sunlight to penetrate through the roof and illuminate the whole central area of the market which is the wet market. Photographers usually likes to take pictures for that area as the sunlight is even-toned, providing an interesting lighting for them to take their pictures.


Now, let me choose a parang first, before going into the market to argue price with those ladies. My parang for sure gonna speak louder than them.


Kelantan is still famous in ladies enterprising. Most of the traders inside the market mostly are women.


The orthogonal central area of the market




You know what?? they are selling this turtle eggs RM10 for 3...OMG~Its freaking expensive man~!! My balls look much more better than those out-of-shape balls~!

The first floor of the market is selling those dried food.



I am wondering what is this?? Looks like those furs from ang-mo.



Lets move on to the second floor where batik and cloth sellers congregated, shouting their lungs out, arguing for the best price they can with the buyers in order to make money for their livings.




Wei, your face like that, how you gonna attract customers?? looks like owed you Rm100,000,000....your face really sibeh tulan.



Outside Pasar Besar Siti Khadijah, tons of sellers open up their stalls under the burning rays from sun. They sheltered themselves with big umbrellas, selling fruits and vegetables.


They called this "snake-skinned fruit" , direct translation from chinese...haha..because its skin looks like snake's skin.


Some selling jeweleries. As what you observed from those pictures, those sellers are all ladies. My legs are sticky with the filthy water of the wet market, yuks~~! Its been a decade whereby i didn't step my foot on wet market. Now, lets move on to Pangkalan Kubor, a duty free zon in Kelantan.



Thats the place, where by Nike, Adidas, Polo, Gucci, LV and many more branded stuff are sell in very cheap price. Why?? Because they are not original product~!! Just like those being sell at petaling street in kL. Ranging from branded stuffs to kitchen accessories , children toys, electronic gadgets and even food, pangkalan Kubor offers a wide array of stuffs for consumers.


And it is also the place whereby local people can get themselves to thailand through the emigration counters and boat a sampan to cross the Golok river to reach thailand.



thats thailand...but i din bring my passport...damn~!


the emigrations

Oh man, how nice it is if i manage to go to thailand!!! Tons of ah gua which is much more pretty than local chicks, tiger shows, cheap original Nike stuffs at pasar malam which the factory workers brought out from their factories, Thai massage and spa (not including special services...haha) and thai food~~~!!!!

Forget about that. I am not going thailand, maybe next time with my passport with me. And save more money for ah gua and tiger show. hahaha....
