give piss a chance…piss out man…

Melaka/Malacca, along with Penang, has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008, which basically means that it has a lot of old stuff that’s been restored, renovated and nicely presented for the steady flow of tourists. It’s a really nice city with everything of interest within walking (or hello kitty rickshaw) distance of the main square.

Jonker Walk @ Jonket Street , turns into the bustling Jonker night market over the weekend with shops, restaurants and bars full to capacity. Alongside the usual tourist market fare is a man who can open a coconut with his index finger. He is listed in the Guiness book or records: “The fastest time to pierce 4 coconuts with a finger is 12.15 sec and was achieved by Ho Eng Hui aka Master Ho (Malaysia) on the set of Lo Show Dei Record, in Milan, Italy, on 21 April 2011”

If that’s not enough you can also check out the walking fish along the river banks…yep, walking fish!

Ho Eng Hui can open a coconut with his index finder. i was his unwilling assistant...here i am challenged to pinch hold of his skin on his forearm - its impossible
