吴国华:老店重建改民宿引客

商家吴国华说,文冬旅游业正在起飞,尤其是周六和周日有许多游客到文冬游玩,除了品尝美食,购买土产,也喜欢在壁画前拍照。

该店距离壁画不远,于是他与家人决定把老店重建后,楼上改为民宿,楼下单位出租,并在后巷种植了一些花树,增添美感,没想到取得很好的效果,日前更有一对新人到来拍照。

他也说,文冬的民宿需求量大增,他的民宿就在文化街一带,附近有壁画和食档,为游客带来便利。

周广财:盼未来增更多壁画

另外,小食档东主周广财表示,许多游客到文冬一日游都会在壁画前拍照,可见壁画深受欢迎,希望在未来,文冬能增加更多有素质的壁画。

“游客的到来,使到我们经营熟食的生意量也增加不少,文冬也更热闹。”

薛翰才:商店美化带动经济民众薛翰才也说,实在没想到老店后巷经过美化后,把整条街道点缀得让人耳目一新,充满朝气。

他说,如果商家们配合旅游,主动和努力美化商店,肯定将为文冬市容带来不同的风貌,也带动经济繁荣。

Hot, dry days until September

Hot, dry days until September

The southwest monsoon has brought with it hotter and drier weather to peninsular Ma­­laysia and Sarawak.

Malaysian Meteorological Depart­ment (MetMalaysia) director-general Alui Bahari said the monsoon season started yesterday.

He said the southwest monsoon came after the end of the inter-monsoon period which brought heavy rains to the peninsula last month.

The monsoon is expected to last until September.

“Generally, during the southwest monsoon, the country will experience lower rainfall in the peninsula and Sarawak,” Alui said in an email.

He said there would be more dry days ahead than wet ones in these two areas during this period.

“But Sabah will receive more rain than other states” he added.

According to the MetMalaysia website, there are four seasons in Malaysia - the southwest monsoon (May to September), northeast monsoon (early November to March), and two inter-monsoon seasons in between.

Rain is only expected to return in October during the next inter-monsoon period.

The northeast monsoon will bring heavy rain to the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, west Sarawak and the northeast of Sabah.

Meanwhile, to escape the hot weather, more people have been seeking shelter in shopping malls

Malaysia Shopping Malls Asso­ciation adviser HC Chan said families would spend more time in malls when the weather got hotter.

“They will have many options in­­clu­­ding going to the restaurants and shops to escape the heat,” he said.

Chan said since the hot spell began recently, there has been a 10% increase in the number of visitors to shopping malls in the Klang Valley.
