funeral of lim chong eu today

… at 12 noon, leaving from dewan sri pinang in light street, to batu gantong.

here is a video of his journey from his house to dewan sri, where his body lies in state for public viewing.

and if you are on facebook, don’t forget to go to CM LGE’s facebook photo album for lots of photos taken from day 1 to day 4 (and of course later on the funeral photos will be up too).

i might be dropping by near 12 noon for the funeral service but i’m sure there will be heavy traffic (as many people wanted to go and police will be blocking many roads) and no parking space. see first how’s the situation. after the funeral i’m going to the little penang market street. susan loone informed in her facebook that she will be there setting up a stall to sell her paintings, so i got to go and see her paintings with my own eyes. heard so much (and read about it) of her paintings on the net but haven’t seen them live. i’m sure there are lots of interesting things to buy at the little market too.

coming back to our second CM, i’m sure you must have noticed there had been so much praises and accolades being written/said about this man.  well i found out from hartalmsm blog that at least one person, famous blogger (and writer) anil netto had, unlike all the others who only gushed out nice things about him, presented his appraisal of lim chong eu’s chequered legacy. read his blog and find out for yourself.
