I lived in Alor Setar 1968-1971 as a US Peace Corps Volunteer working with Pusat TB Negara. The best 3 years of my life! The scenery, history, people and food are all top notch! Alor Setar as well as Malaysia in general, live on in my heart and I will always consider it my second home. Great video!
@@Mustafa-Kamal-Satar I remember that area before the complex was constructed . I used to buy my daily news paper from Arunasalam news stand across the street from the bus terminal.....ate many meals along Jalan Langgar....and on occasion would treat myself to ice cream at the Milk Bar next to the Bus Terminal...the best 3 years of my life! I rented a small house across the street from the old British Club and Govt. Rest House.
Thank you for your videos, I am currently preparing to move for work and you are so helpful to learn the culture and the history of the Malaysian people! Thank you!
Hi I was born n bred in Alor Star . My roots in Jitra. My grandad was grand old man of Jitra. During opening of Day Care Health Centre in Jitra in 1957 by YTM Tunku ,PM , personally witnessed Tunku warmly greeting my grand old man who was his fren when he was serving as DO in Kubang Pasu.of course i had to take bus from Jitra to Alor Star to attend Iskandar Primary School.Later shited to stay in Alor Sar n attended SAHC.
Watching your video a year late,better late than never! I really enjoyed your history lesson.You have to be one of the best Malaysian tubers,you are very entertaining and fun. McDonald's museum...lol..I think I still have some of those toys!!!
I grew up here. Schooled here at elementary & secondary levels, before moving on to greater and greener educational pastures. My old house that I grew up in was one of the shanty shophouses (gerai makanan) in a row of shanty shophouses in Jalan Tunku Ibrahim in front of what is now the modern Pekan Rabu complex, of course in my childhood days Pekan Rabu wasn't like what it is today. My family later permanently relocated to our current home site in Mergong, but I could still see Menara Alor Setar (Alor Setar Tower) from the windows of my late mom's house in Mergong. I now reside, work & raise a family in Seri Kembangan, Selangor but make a point to frequently visit my and my mom's homecity Alor Setar where I still have many relatives
17:14 Diem Bakery around the corner has seating right on the river Kedah at the old Chinese Jetty. That is my pick. There's also a great Thai|Chinese resto next to the mosque. The chef is a Thai aunty. Not cheap, but very good stuff.
