SeAfoOd feast n puBbiNg at JB

a lazy saturday...
and a JB friend's persistent on "come to JB lar, i bring you eat good seafood"...
so JB we go...

drive in, change to m'sia registered car and search for good seafood. interestingly, that place is just 'ulu' till u'll definitely won't able to find even in broad daylight.
we know the way as one of my buddies been there before.. imagine away fr housing area, drive-thru backlane of some (industrial area or abandon housing estate?) and a narrow driveway (both left/right is like a swamp) all the way.. and suddenly, wow.. such a bright place with colorful attractive neon lights!
that seafood centre is TODAK, as the name implies.. kampung orang asli (the aborigin village) seafood centre.
we reach there n select our fresh crab, fish, snails, prawns, etc.. and directly opposite is from TODAK, is Sembawang, Singapore!
avoid the crab boy, 1 sri-lankan meat crab cost us RM108, bloody expensive!

after a heavy feast.. we decide to recky around JB's night life activities
5 guys.. in a JB registered plate Nissan Sentra, who dare to do bully us? but 1 of my buddy a bit wary.. saying "ooi, those dark2 backlane, try to avoid lei.. i got RM3k in my pocket lor"
* faint *
we bully him into treat us seafood feast, who ask him to take such a big amount from the ATM machine?

1st destination.. really a backlane and if u're not local, u'll definitely won't know there's something inside.. 2 casual looking ordinary guy sit nearby the backlane 'longkang', surprise they're the bouncer!
so my JB friend (lalat) lead us to a small lane and suddenly a metal door swing open and 2 guys greet us "lau-ban, come inside and have a look lei".
huh... we peep inside, the room soooo smoky and we saw some ktv gals (dress to kill) serving some customers. as they saw us hesitate, they told us "no problem, come and have a look.. not suitable, then next time can come again".
after a short discussion, lalat told them "sorry boss, next time lar.. we a bit out of time".

ok... we're indeed not comfortable.
sam : damn.. go in already, later cannot come out, how?
kok : go in can come out lar, but yr RM3k gone lor.. u wanna go or not?
sam : no way man..
lal : no lar, trust me.. they do business, won't do such a thingy one
erc : i've been there before with my kl colleagues, entertaining
erc : yea.. see whether u wanna go or not, they open door do business, no worry
kok : ok.. then we skip this one lar
kcw : come 5 persons, go also 5 persons..
kok : ok, backlane too dark, why not we go those places got bright light one?
sam : ok, that one no problem, karaoke or pub?
lal : pub lor.. onz lar

after a 5 mins drive.. we reach the pubbing area, lots of people around with hotel n residential area and a few pubs around.
we just go into one of them and have a sit... 2 small tables for 5 of us and we ordered 2 bucks of beers. 1 pail consists of 4 medium bottled beer which cost around RM60++ and i guess we open 6 pails...(from 11pm++ to almost 4am) and as usual, i only drink half a small glass!
in front of me is the premier league chelsea vs aston villa, charton vs arsenal, etc..

less than 5 mins, 3 gals came n serve us the beers.. and interestingly, those gals name all start with cat, candy, etc.. and all of them are quite young. we chat among ourselves, with them, play poker cards, etc...
and we need to buy them drinks like those i've been in s'pore.. but in JB, more expensive. s'pore, 1 glass cost ard sgd10 while in jb, it cost us ard rm25 per glass.

as usual, i'm the one who always kena whack cos i dun drink beer. so they'll curse n swear at me n say "ah kok, yr bloody 1 small glass of water cost us rm30... next time no more water for you"

while they play happily with those gals, ah bear n myself prefer to survey n walk around and laugh at one of my buddies.. we just speak to ourselves..

bear : see that lalat, damn him..
kok : why, he already out of mind seeing those young pretty gals
bear : know him 20 yrs.. not even treat me a cuppa coffee, u look at him now
kok : damn.. he act like a taukeh now
bear : next time he say no money, he die.. i'll whack him jialat2
kok : aiyaa.. nvm lar, let him have some face lor
bear : neh.. what face, always say earn money hard, no money, this n that.. see pretty gals, i guess his whole wallet also can empty for them
kok : hmmph.. i guess if he's loaded, he'll come here every week
bear : no lar.. i guess his money will be cheated easily
kok : u look at him now, i guess he's willing to be cheater lor
bear : hahahah.. i agree, agree, come, have a drink

ok.. now got 2 gals approach us n introduce as .. err.. dunno lar.. i tell them i old already, cannot remember so many names. cat, candy, cindy, apple, qi-qi, mi, etc.. headache. but the gals say.. no worry, i'll remember yr face!
hmmph.. so we strike a conversation with the 2 gals, 1 from simpang rengam while another one from kluang, both johorean.
1 19 while the other is 21 yrs old...n both told us they're new there. so i chat with the kluang gal name.. candy (i guess so lar).

kcc : ooi.. u see those gals, i a bit disappointed
kok : why, they offend you?
kcc : damn.. some of them like own them money, not friendly at all, not even smile
kok : haha.. i guess we're the most gentlemen group of guys who came here.. tt's why these gals sit there n didn't know how to strike a conversation with us
kcc : maybe lar.. cos most hamsap boy like lalat.. look at gals, their hand already everywhere n keep teasing them
kcc : so our fault for being gentlemen lar, right? damn! next time dun come here liao
kcc : my experience in shanghai n dongguan is way better man
kok : u cannot compare lar

erc : i check their ic, really 19 lei
sam : u ppl scare or not har?
kcc : scare under age, later kena rotan n masuk lokap?
sam : no.. later u guys got daughter, what will happen if they strayed n go into this kinda situation?
erc : easy lar.. i give my daughter lots of money, make sure they don't do such a thing
kok : haha.. u idiot, they got money then they go to pub n eat pills, how?
erc : damn, dun give, they like that, give also like that.. how?
sam : i dun feel good.. scare retribution.. all kids, damn it
erc : hello, i ask u to come here n drink, not ask u to play them o..
sam : i know, but this kinda job.. wear so little.. confirm rugi big time one
kok : they know when they do such a job, more or less.. also kena one lar
sam : yalar.. if i really wanna play, i'll play those >25 instead..
erc : fxxx.. >25 then make u feel better, no retribution lar, right
sam : dunno, i feel weirdo about these bunch of young kids.. pity them
...

i agree with what samson say lar
those who can't complete SPM (O level) or just complete but can't go further.. what will they do? most of them go to city area, what can they do?
sales (departmental store, cosmetic, handphone shop, etc..), restaurants or quick money like ktv (clean & not clean), pub, selling cigars, etc..

i look at them n wonder :
- they're just 19-20s, indeed very young
- money to them is everything?
- to earn such a money, they willing to let ppl kiss n molest...to them is really nothing cos their objective is to earn money

maybe we think too much..we can't accept doesn't mean others can't accept.
