Balik Pulau

CASE A

One fine day, I was waiting for my parcel to reach from Sabah. Its sent via Skynet which supposed to reach today, tik-tok-tik-tok……. tik-tok-tik-tok……. tik-tok-tik-tok……. tik-tok-tik-tok……. tik-tok-tik-tok……. tik-tok-tik-tok……. tik-tok-tik-tok……. tik-tok-tik-tok………..

One day…. Two day…. Three day…..

After 3 days of expected delivery date, finally.. it crawled its way here! Reason!?

One day back, Skynet fella called me to ask for address confirmation.

My address is 123A, Jalan ABC, 11000 Balik Pulau Pulau Pinang.  where they have wrongly wrote as Balik Pulau Pinang.

CASE B

My friend just told me that… on the way to Penang island, there’s signboard on the arrival to the island. There’s one… “Balik Pulau” sign. (“Balik” means GO BACK, “Pulau” means ISLAND)

Interesting thing is… He thought its  to make U-TURN at the ISLAND… super duper logical thinking… maybe he is tooo smart! Means… when you hitting the island, you can follow “Balik Pulau” to get back to where you were.. U-turn!

Clarification!

Balik Pulau is a name of a place where my hometown is…. the part where Tsunami visited… but didn’t hit the whole area la.. the coastal part… beaches there….

Shall I suggest… Mr Goverment Dude… you wan remove “Balik” or “Pulau” or totally change the name to avoid confusion? Hahaha.. maybe..maybe… that’s the unique feature of my hometown! LOLZ.. Happy Chinese New Year! Its raining now in this new year eve.. totally.. weird!!
