There's an idea

Starring Compost Bin Fulla and Norahliza Binti Batty, I guess. You could call them Compo and Nora for short!

I spent my childhood in Klebang, I was staying at the area behind Golden Coast Condo. That's the reason I would prefer Klebang.

Hope to meet you in Melaka soon.

I also look forward to meeting up.

You can go to Melaka Raya and try Wok & Pan.

I like Klebang and have been checking the real estate there. Not bad...bad only one place to date has caught my eye.
Don't recall or more likely never knew a lot of the other suburbs mentioned and am not taken by most the places on offer.

Nice to see a few expats seem to be setting up in Melaka. Hope a bit of a community takes shape there.
