Malaysian movie industry is filled with great directors that create movies, based on their own original ideas not by adaptation of novels or any sort of books. However, lately the entertainment industry in Malaysia experienced a new type of tv series and movies. Few Malaysian directors started making movies based on Malaysia's bestselling novels. Novels such as "Nora Elena"(adapted from the novel "Kasih yang Suci"), "Ombak Rindu", and "Lagenda Budak Setan" have all been made into movies, not ordinary movies, but blockbusters (with the exception of "Nora Elena" which is a highly successful tv series).

Night Market @ Pasar Malam
In the area where I lived in, we have (As most area in Kelantan has) night market or as we call it, 'pasar malam'. It is usually held on weeknights such as on Friday or Saturday night. there, you can find varieties of things sold by the vendors at very reasonable and negotiable price. And the best part is....(drum roll please...) the FOOD!
Oh yes, the food sold there are super awesome. There are varieties of food to choose from, ranging from fried to boiled. Since Malaysia is a multicultural country and a melting pot for various cultures, different types of food have emerged and all contributes to the unique flavours of Malaysia. In the night market, the vendors sell Malay, Chinese and Indian food regardless of the identity of the buyers. We all love to eat the same thing.
To give my readers (if I have any) more insight into the 'pasar malam' culture, I have included some photos in this post. Unfortunately I can't post many photos due to the time I was photographing the night market scene, many of the vendors were still on holiday after the Eid. So, only a few set up their stall. Nevertheless, I still want to post this few pics just for you guys.
Enjoy....
The small alley where the 'pasar malam' was held |
The alley is kinda empty because not many vendors were there |
Drinks and beverages were also sold there at reasonable prices... |

These guys are geniuses, they're producing masterpieces in three uniques (and huge) pans. Wanna see what's the smoke is all about? |
This is what they've been cooking in one of those giant pans. Fried noodles with soy sauce or as I call it 'Mee goreng'. |
