#balingselipar The origins of the game name have not being stated in any publication or journal.

Hence it is hard to determine the trusted source for the game. It is believed that the term of

the game came from the direct translation of the game. “Baling” mean throw or action to

fling something and “Selipar” mean slipper or sandal that being used in the game. The combinations of the word bring the overall definition of the game itself which is the

slipper or sandal is being thrown to the target (slipper shrine or pyramid).There are also

various name for this game such as tuju selipar, and tuju kasut 13, 14, 16 . Baling Selipar is a physical game that needs two groups which consist of 5 people

for each group (depends). Before the game begins, the flip-flop slipper or sandal will be

arranged in a pyramid form. Both groups must decide which group is going to start attacking first

and which one to defend. The attacking group will destroy the arrangement of the

slipper and then reconstruct the arrangement without the members being counter attack or killed

by the defending group. The defending group will prevent the attacking group from

reconstruct the slipper arrangement after the attacking group made their move by ‘killing’ each of

the members of the attacking group. ‘Killing’ here means, the defending group will

throw the slipper that being used for shooting the slipper arrangement to any of the

attacking group, and the members which had been shoot by the slipper is eliminated from the round and

cannot make any further move.

#MALAYSIANFOOD

#roticanaisatuuuuu! A classic Malaysian breakfast of Indian derivation,

though this flaky finger food is good any time of day (and really good at about three in the morning). A dough of flour, egg, and ghee (clarified butter) is incredibly, almost unbelievably elastic; it's stretched quickly into a tissue-thin sheet, like pizza dough but even more dramatic, then folded back up and griddled. In its best form, right off the griddle, it's flaky and crisp like a good croissant on the outside, soft and steaming and a little bit chewy on the inside. It's also served with curry, often lentil dal; other versions are cooked with egg, or onion, or sardines.

#asampedas Another dish that makes use of the sour-

spicy-fishy trinity. Fish and, usually, okra are simmered in a tamarind-based broth that, as in so many dishes, starts with a pounded spice paste of chilis and roots and belacan.

#popiahkering Rolls of shredded turnip, jicama, and

other crisp veggies, along with perhaps peanuts or egg or tofu, all wrapped in a thin, pliant wheat crepe.
