Sharp at 10:00 PM, the Dataran Pahlawan Megamall lights are switched off, leaving the night on the Dataran Pahlawan Megamall quiet and personal. I say "personal" because it is you and where you are that make it personal to you. As at 11:30 PM, Sunday night within the lively ambient of this outlet, I could still hear the children's voices, see them running around the open floor, and at time I laugh at them making actions on the open stage within the outlet as if they are performing a stage show there. Yes, we have space, and you'd appreciate that we have provided a quality of a few hours left of your night to personally enjoy it before you retire for the day!
Empty as it looks...but an opportunity for those who love quality life after hours..
Right outside on the main street, cars and all sorts of vehicles jammed up the road. With much quality of night offered on top of the Dataran Pahlawan Megamall, many are still queing infront of the McD counters, little space there is packed up. I wonder, the green flagship of our local outlet is not as yellow and as red enough to attract the crowd as crowded as McD. What has gone wrong? This thought prompts me to help reveal the actual facts.
Space for your children while you sit down and have your meals.
Is our new generation the generation of Western fast foods? Or our thoughts have been corrupted with the thinking that rice would make us "very" fat while cheese and burgers are better bets than rice? What has gone wrong? Now, check the list from the website below:

Among the countries in the world, the place where Western fast foods come from such as USA, UK etc.. make up most of the top of country's most overweight adults of 15 yrs and above! Look at China and Thailand where the largest consumption of rice are, they are amongst the lowest rank in the fat world! As I said, where have Malaysians gone wrong? Eat rice sufficient for your daily energy needs and you will be alright, much much alrighter than the other fat world's type of foods! Yep, God bless our mama for such a good taste and choice of our own food!!! :-)
