MELAKA : 2012 - AEON BANDARAYA MELAKA

AEON Bandaraya Melaka Shoppine Centre is a hypermarket but typical urban shopping mall for everyone, especially for family. Located at Jalan Lagenda, Taman 1, Melaka, is one of the most-frequented malls in Melaka. 

AEON Bandaraya Melaka opened to the public on 17 December 2009. However, an explosion due to a gas leak occurred, which killed 1 person and injured 13 others on 14 December 2009. The opening had to be postponed to February 2010.

Among the memories I can't forget with AEON Bandaraya Melaka is when I was involved in the health screening program  held here from 23 to 28 March 2012 organised by the Heart Foundation of Malaysia.

A total of 755 people attended the health screening tests and 141 people taking the electrocardiogram tests during our one week in Melaka.











While in Melaka we stayed at Hang Tuah City Hotel (previously known as Straits Meridian Hotel) which is located in Taman Malinja, Bukit Baru, Melaka.
** The Hotel is now known as Capital O Hotel Super Cowboy (2024)

The travel distance from our office in Kuala Lumpur to Hang Tuah City Hotel is 145 km, taking 1 hour 51 minutes to drive.








The food stall located near the hotel we were staying at. This is where we had dinner on the first night we arrived here. Unexpectedly, my cousin Rokiah Hanim and her husband has come to visit me at this stall. Hanim happened to live not far from our hotel.


A very famous Melaka cuisine, Asam Pedas Daging Tetel (a beef with some fats attached to it). It is a Malaysian Traditional Dish made from beef with sour and spicy sauce. Asam pedas means "sour and spicy" my favorite dish. That night I ate 2 plates of rice with Asam Pedas Daging Tetel....Yummy..

BUKIT BARU, MELAKA
Bukit Baru is a town in Melaka Tengah District which is administered by 2 local governments, Hang Tuah Jaya Municipal Council to the north and Historical Malacca City Council to the south. 
This town is just outside my hotel, a walking distance only. I took the opportunity to dedicate photos to memories around the hotel where I stayed.





Keluargaku located at Kompleks Perniagaan Al-Azim, is a departmental Store in Bukit Baru, Melaka, just a walking distance from our hotel. Shopping mall that sells Traditional Clothes, Malay/Kurung, Boys, School Clothes, school uniforms. Groceries, and others.

The mosque was constructed to replace the former state mosque at Transquerah Mosque and officially opened on 13 July 1990 the the ninth Yang Di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Azlan Shah of Perak. 




The Malacca Islamic Religious Council was founded on 28 September 1960. It aims to manage the affairs of the Islamic State of Malacca as well as assist and advise His Majesty the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

Do visit Melaka...... the charming UNESCO World Heritage City, rich with history, culture, colonial buildings, ancient landmarks, family-friendly attractions and yummy local cuisine.

MELAKA - ALOR GAJAH

Away from the hustle and bustle of Bandar Hilir is Alor Gajah, a small and quaint town offering a variety of activities for you and the family to enjoy. It is mostly accessible via the North-South Highway, takes about 1 hour 19 minutes to drive from Kuala Lumpur, 2 hours from Johor Bahru. 

Among my memories in Alor Gajah is 5 November 2015 when the Heart Foundation of Malaysia held a health screening program at the Kolej Universiti Agrosains Malaysia located in Ayer Pa'Abas, Alor Gajah, Melaka.

Before the health screening program took place, the Awareness Team Manager and I attended the Program Coordination meeting on 27 October 2015.



The journey from Kuala Lumpur to Alor Gajah is 119 km and takes 1 hour 36 minutes.








The establishment of the University College of Agroscience Malaysia (UCAM) began in 1960, originally known as the Rubber Training School by the Rubber Research Institute (RRI). In 1973, RISDA took over the institute and named it the RISDA Training School. It was upgraded to RISDA College in 1999. On 8 December 2014, RISDA College was upgraded to a university and named the University College of Agroscience Malaysia or simply UCAM.






A total of 116 students and staff attended the health screening that day. During the program here we stayed at D'Impiana Homestay in Alor Gajah, Melaka.
