Being a big foodie, I invited one of the engineers, literally, who created Little Red Dot Kitchen. They sell naturally produced Bak Kua (or Bak Kwa), which is a kind of Chinese barbeque jerky. Learn more about their Bak Kua (I write it as either Bak Kuaⁿ or Bak kNua) and how these engineers started this business.

Also find out more about how methodically they tested and came up with their recipe.

They have the regular Bak Kua, Lite Bak Kua, and even, Turkey Bak Kua, which is surprisingly good. Learn more about all these bak kua in this week’s podcast.

Guests: WiwiWawa, Puto Jee, Ipoh Kiaⁿ, & Si Niau.

This week, I invite you into the roller coaster ride in WiwiWawa’s car, which is our portable studio. There is an upgrade to the car. I asked them about their first impression this time when they saw me. We talked about multiple topics including detailed introductions of some new guests, WiwiWawa’s driving habit, but one major one is how I lost my weight.

Also, thank you very very much for your gifts and support while I’m in Penang. I appreciate you all taking the time to come meet me and celebrate my birthday with me. It means a lot to me.

I had a special opportunity to attend my first ever Twestival, and miraculously, it’s in my hometown, Penang.

I also learned about the National Stroke Association of Malaysia (NASAM) at my first Penang Twestival. Learn more from fellow twestival attendees and the chairman of NASAM Mr Chan.

Please donate to NASAM generously.

Support your local Twestival next year. I really appreciate how the young generations utilize technology and social media for charity. I’m honored to be a part of it.
