Of Indonesians and Teh Tarik
I have been away training a group of Technologist from Indonesia the whole of last week. I had a good time training them even though it was really tiring since I could only afford about 30 minutes of sleep to prepare for the 5 days session. They were demanding and surely had a lot to ask and it was quite a tedious work trying ti impress and fulfill their expectations. Alhamdulillah the training went off well and I received very positive feedback from them during the closing session yesterday. Among others they were talking about sending more participants to be trained and the possibility of a JV in their development work. InsyaAllah.
Of the 5 days I couldn't help but smile at the fact that they loved Teh Tarik so much. I have been to Indonesia several times and yes, they do not serve tea with milk, what more Teh Tarik! What they are familiar with are the famous teh botol or teh kotak. We had a free flow teh tarik during the training (not a real mamak style teh tarik though but the Aik Cheong 3-in-1 packets) and since they loved it so much they were asking me where we'd bought the 3-in-1 drink - so I promised to get them a packet each to take home to Indonesia. I even told them to try the real deal at one of the mamak restaurant nearby the office and they loved it!
It's actually wonderful to know that a simple local drink like Teh Tarik could attract followers from afar. I wonder if the next time I am in Indonesia I would somehow find a restaurant selling Teh Tarik eh? Heheheh

Kopi Oh Cineleisure, Mutiara Damansara
Kopitiam Styled Kopi Oh! @ Cineleisure Damansara
We were at Kopi Oh! Cineleisure Mutiara Damansara recently for tea. It was indeed a good choice. Besides what we ordered (see below) they serve really tempting looking main dishes to choose from like Nasi Lemak Rendang Daging and many more local dishes. We'll have to come back some other time to try their main dishes since we were rather full and was in between two movies during one of our movie marathon sessions recently.
I had this really delicious sandwich with chicken floss and slices of chicken in it with the Apple Assam drink - refreshing!
While KN had the Toast Kaya Bread and Iced Tea - both were not bad at all.
Penawar Surah Al Kausar
Surah ini paling pendek, hanya mengandungi 3 ayat & diturunkan di Makkah dan bermaksud sungai di syurga. Kolam sungai ini diperbuat daripada batu permata nan indah dan cantik. Rasanya lebih manis daripada madu, warnanya pula lebih putih daripada susu dan lebih wangi daripada kasturi.
Surah ini disifatkan sebagai surah penghibur hati Nabi Muhammad s.a.w.kerana diturunkan ketika baginda bersedih atas kematian 2 orang yang dikasihi iaitu anak lelakinya Ibrahim dan bapa saudaranya Abu Talib.
Pelbagai khasiat terkandung di dalam surah ini dan boleh kita amalkan:-
1) Baca surah ini ketika hujan dan berdoa, mudah-mudahan Allah s.w.t. makbulkan doa kita.
2) Jika kita kehausan dan tiada air, bacalah surah ini dan gosok di leher, Insya' Allah hilang dahaga.
3) Jika sering sakit mata, seperti berair, gatal, bengkak, sapukan air mawar yang sudah dibacakan surah ini sebanyak 10x pada mata.
4) Jika rumah dipercayai terkena sihir, baca surah ini 10x, mudah-mudahan Allah s.w.t. bagi ilham pada kita dimana letaknya sihir itu.
5) Jika membacanya 1,000x rezeki kita akan bertambah.
6) Jika rajin membacanya, hati kita akan menjadi lembut dan khusyuk ketika menunaikan solat.
7) Jika orang teraniaya dan terpenjara membacanya sebanyak 71x, Allah s.w.t. akan memberikan bantuan kepadanya kerana dia tidak bersalah tetapi dizalimi.
Perkara yg baik kita amalkan selalu. Sebar-sebarkankanlah kepada kekawan, terima
kasih.
