Perth in Review (Part 1)

Why so busy lately?

DSC00481  Have been busy dodging bombs. (FIY, SOY means Soil on You or in other words, Shit on YOU)

Perth is as a matter of fact, a great place to live though there is not much ‘Hua Na” roaming the streets anymore. Thank goodness. Terrorism be gone Whether it is a good thing for some people, there is still those Aussie Slang running around your mind every now and then. You will receive heaps on greetings containing, “Luv”, “Darling”, “Sweetie” and the all famous “Teddy Bear". I am not a cute cuddly toy mind you but they Aussies don’t really take those words seriously as to their real definition.

Nevermind about that I say. They wont rape me that’s for sure. Right?

Another thing is, those fences or jail bars that we seem to cage around our homely home are long gone in Australia (Well in some cases). They are not inviting any robberies or rape cases and some sort, it cause crime in Australia is more well controlled than Malaysia. You walk at 12 midnight and what do you see? No shady man, no massacres, no nothing (Well, I still don't recommend you to walk at that time of night). Though aggressive drivers are more likely to be seen in Australia.

In Malaysia, the car chases are a bore compared to Perth. Don’t you find it awkward that a car chase have a ninety percent chance that the car they are chasing is a KANCIL? I mean seriously, they don’t make movies like Italian Job anymore. "Reporting a prime suspect in aggressive driving, a black Kancil driving at 90kmp/h. Calling in backup in Batu Tujuh. We may have duit kopi if we do catch them" depicting a actual car chase in Malaysia in English.

As I said previously, cars here such as brand new Mazda can be sold as cheap as a plain old junk called the Kancil. I am so sad that we all have been cheated all along. Say thanks to the Prime Minister of Modernization. He’s the one who came up with this brilliant idea.

Besides all that ranting, there are also other things to be well kept aware of. The many places to visit in Perth of course. From Perth City itself, strolling over the famous Swan Lake, feeding seagulls at Fremantle Port, having a picnic at Kings Park, feeding yourself at Chinatown, getting lost at Curtin University, going Wind Surfing at the beach, and all in 30 to 1 hour drive from the suburbs, you can’t go wrong getting bore at this place. Though, night life here is particularly amiss in Perth. Most shops close at about 5.30pm. The agony for us, the bliss for those businessman.

Anyway, my first impression of Perth compared to Kuching is “Beats the Hell out of it in some ways

Since my hair is itching to get a shampoo rinse, I’ll be signing off up to this point. Be sure to check out for more upcoming post about Perth and a review on the iPhone 3G.

This is definately a must for those iPhone haters cause I was one of them last time but now, I have become a fanboy. I proudly admit it.

So to sum it all;

KUCHING : PERTH = 0 : 1
