Tofu in Sungai Udang

In Sungai Udang, Melaka, there stood a handmade tofu factory which spun 50 years of history, each morning freshly producing firm tofu, fried tofu, soybean milk etc. The tiny tin-roofed tofu factory is located within the proprietor’s own courtyard, abiding by the traditional woodfire way of producing artisanal handmade tofu.

The procedures of manufacturing handmade tofu is tedious, the quality of the tofu entirely relies on the master’s cumulative experience over the years as well as mastery of the craft. Each segment including selection of beans, milling into liquid form, condensation, compression, slicing, and deep-frying, are factors which affect the quality of the end product. During the transformation process of soybeans from solid to liquid and back to solid, Handsome Ong and May Ong with their decades of experience, compress nicely the aroma of soybeans into each tofu cube.

Artiste – Mr Sum Kwai Fong

Mr Sum Kwai Fong, a 1966 graduate of Chung Hua High School Port Dickson, was the first batch to graduate from the school. At present, he holds the position as president of the Malaysia Artistes Association, and is currently working in the fields of Art Education and Art Therapy. Mr Sum implies that Art in drawing takes not only the form of a picture, and also not an objective copy of scenes in life, but an assimilation of the artist’s understanding towards life, attitude towards society and their own mindsets, as well as a representation of their characteristics.

Mr Sum also respects that neither lowliness nor nobleness apply in Art aesthetics. Each person has their own different inclination, therefore personal preferences should not be employed as academic criticism, otherwise examination of theoretical value would be lost. The only way to nurture art attainment, pursue and achieve self-worth, is through self-recognition.

Wah Kong Temple in Puchong

Each temple has its own originating history, this is the story of Wah Kong temple in Puchong.

At the temple, there goes an allusion as such: an enormous snake who has cultivated spiritual training for 800 years was burned to death by an Englishman a few days just before it metamorphoses into a dragon. In 2005, the committee members of the temple dug out golden hued “dragon bones”, which they believe belonged to the enormous snake who did not get to ascend heavenly order and metamorphose into a dragon. Thus they constructed a pagoda in the temple to lay the remaining broken bones together with the soil of the excavation spot to rest, and for people to pay their respects.
