|
Kampung Suria, a charming village near Mersing on the east coast of Johor, is a
place where the community is closely knit and friendly. Along with its beautiful
beaches, the village is well-known for its favorite pastime of kite flying.
Despite being a leisure activity nowadays, it was once a competitive sport, and
the locals still make their kites from scratch using special bamboo and paper.
The men in the family work on the frames, while the womenfolk indulge in
watching Korean drama serials, and the men enjoy watching football matches.
Besides these indoor activities, gardening is another favorite pastime in
Kampung Suria, with herbs and vegetables being grown for personal consumption.
The village is even famous for its herbs like selasih, mint, kunyit, and misai
kuching. The residents of Kampung Suria take delight in living a simple
lifestyle and enjoying their pastimes, which helps to keep the senior citizens
of the village in good mood and health.
Despite facing tough times in the past, Kampung Suria has learned to be
self-sufficient and relish a simple lifestyle. This philosophy of life has made
the village a joyful place to live, where people take pleasure in the small
things in life and cherish their traditions. |
