Uncle Amrahi’s Open House

On September 27th, we went to Uncle Amrahi’s Eid open house.

Uncle Amrahi is a senior member of Silat Cekak Hanafi.

From the left in stripped green shirt is Uncle Amrahi, next is me sitting on Uncle Amrahi's lap, Aunty Faudziah, my mother and my big sister Kaman.

Over there we ate lots of delicious rice and beef, satay, roti jala, custard and other tasty food.

I met Uncle Amrahi’s cousin, Aunty Rahimah Abu Bakar again.

She invited me to watch YONEX Open Japan 2011 match – Lee Chong Wei vs Chen Long badminton live on the TV.

Aunty Rahimah was a national badminton player many, many years ago.

She is still the best Malay woman badminton player in Malaysia.

I love going to Uncle Amrahi’s open house 🙂

Chinese authorities came under fire on Wednesday after the worst subway train accident in 42 years raised fresh concerns that the world’s second biggest economy was sacrificing safety in the rush to develop.

On Tuesday 27/9/2011, a metro train clash into another metro train.

More than 270 people were injured, 20 of them are critically injured.

At least five people were killed or missing after being swept away by rivers swollen with rain even before Typhoon Roke reached Japan.

A typhoon is a natural disaster that can cause heavy rain, strong winds, floods and mudslides.

The typhoon was expected to make landfall along Japan’s southeast coast around midday on Wednesday.

It will then moves northeast through Tokyo and into the northeastern Tohoku region which was hit by the March 11 tsunami and earthquake.

Also in the path of the storm is the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant.

More than a million people were ordered or advised to evacuate.

Kyodo News reported that more than 200 domestic flights were canceled and some bullet train services were suspended.
