I remember spending my school holidays there. It eas a green house and you had to drive over a big canal ot it. As we were in the house and all the adults working, my grandma and grand aunt use to take care of us. The house backed on to a jungle as we always had the gardener killing snakes that entered the house. Was also told years later that the house was haunted!!!!!!!!!! For luch, a boy on a bicycle use to deliver Hokkien Mee ot Wanton mee for us. His godson was called Ah Lim who is now a chef and was the son of a big shot in BS. Ah memories.

I went to SMJK(I) Bagan Serai between 1972 to 1978 (left after my Form 4). Never been back but am thinking to perhaps net year......that Bah Chang Kuih.....we used to call it "apom balik" (roughly translated to overturned pancake).....every Friday after to school I used to stop at a shop beside the Chinese school in town, for a nice cold drink of tebu, also remember a few shops away from the mosque, there used to be a ironsmith, about half a km south a friend of mine Ng Siew Huat used to live...about a couple more km south, somewhere not far from the junction of Maxwell Rd (Jln Matang Buloh??) and the Main Road there was a big house cum bakery, run by the Mirza family, about a km behind this building are paddy field, opposite the building is the fire station. Are these places still there??.....at the back of my school is a canal, between my school (along Maxwell Rd)and the canal were a couple of shop houses...after school sometimes I and a couple of friends we used to hang around the place and smoke tiga limas or bensons.....some good memories I have of Bagan Serai......it'll be great if you can provide more snapshots of teh town on your web site.....
