PGHK #293 Ho Kai Siau (好介绍)
Since I’m going back to Penang next week (arrive March 21), I’d like to see what my listeners can contribute to my experience in Penang this time. They gave me a long list of things to check out. From Saⁿ Tiau Loh Sio Bah (烧肉) to Spa.
Follow me on Twitter @JohnOng and I’ll tweet when I’m going trying everything. I hope you can join me sometimes.
My official birthday dinner and celebration will be on April 2 (Saturday). Going to be at Nanyang Restaurant. Please go to Penang Hokkien Podcast Facebook Page for more information.
See you in Penang.
Tsunami in Japan
I hope all our listeners in Japan are ok. Please let us know if you’re in Japan and are doing alright.
Take care and all our hearts go out to all affected by the quake and tsunami.
Birthday weekend with listeners

More information to come when we find a place. And set a time.
PGHK #292 Tah Bas (搭巴士)
Taking the bus has always been fun for me, today and way back when I was young. It feels like an adventure. We talk about buses today and buses back then in Penang as well as he the long-distant buses to and from Singapore.
I have removed my advertisments from the site. Check the post below for detials.
BUT, please rate us and leave comments in iTunes. That will help PGHK get more notice. This helps to push the show up the ratings, and more people will find it. Thanks so much.
No More Ads
A few days ago, I received an email from Google that there are weird activities for my advertisement clicks. They have suspended my account. I attempted to appeal, since I wasn’t very sure as to what irregular activities mean.
Today, they replied that they stand by their data and decision.
So, I decided to stop putting advertisements on here all together. I will have to find other means of income to supplement the hosting cost, fees and equipment. But I’ll survive. I did this for the first few years without making any income. I won’t be broke without it.
I want to thank those who helped me generate some money over the last year. You don’t need to change anything. Still come back to the site to enjoy your favorite shows, and if I needed the money, I will find other ways.
Thanks for all your support.
