This video is certainly a pleasant surprise ! My parents, grandparents and many relatives call Jelebu their home and I have many fond memories of this place while I was still a naughty kid. Although its the driest place in Malaysia, it can be really cold & misty in the morning. I am very fortunate to have a place I can call "kampong". Here're some interesting facts told to me by those who lived there throughout their lives : - during japanese occupation, many went into hiding in the forest and resort to eating tapioca to survive. - when times were very tough, they didn't have the luxury of preparing sambal with anchovies, instead they used small grasshoppers as substitute. - there is a place in titi called Yi Long Long where many unfortunate chinese were beheaded. The soil were so heavily soaked with their blood that it took many months before plants could start to grow. - there were rumors that crying & screaming voices of the dead can be heard fr time to time. - even after the japanese occupation, one of my relatives got spooked by the sound of Japanese armies marching during the mid night. - Titi's chinese girls are the prettiest in the district of Jelebu. - Although a sleepy & quiet town unknown to many, a lot chinese residents in Jelebu became rich trading Malaysia's stock market in the 90's. - Top Glove's CEO is originally a titi resident
Really impressed with this particular episode featuring Titi. From the beginning of this episode till the end - it can be an eye opener for those who have yet to step in to Titi ( at least for me ! ). The historical portion was well illustrated and easily comprehended - very well spoken by Elmo. The food there are also very unique ( eg. the wong chau bun and the kau chai ngap dish ) and its looks is as good as it's taste. Coupled with fresh vegetables and local fruits availability at Titi - this episode tops one of my list and shall try to make trip there when I travel down to N.Sembilan. Surely - this is Yatt Lau & Mou Tak Deng episode. Danny's presence and his purchase of the "sart kae Ma" sweets makes it a complete purchase. To summarize this Titi episode - I would say it is excellent choice, an eye opener place ( at least for those who have not gone there before ) and a great historical wrap up on Titi by Elmo. Thank you and again a Yatt Lau & Mou Tak Deng episode. 👌👌👌👏👏👏👍👍👍
A very good video about culture. history and food.the dstory of Luo Baitou unreasonable invasion of Sicngapore and Malaysia. Thanks Elmo Lee & Danny Loke for sharing 👍🙏 .
Hi ELMO, thanks for the interesting indepth history of TITI KONG. It's sad that the present generation don't care, or appreciate the history of WW2 and how much Malaysians, especially the Chinese, have suffered such cruelty under the japanese occupation Keep up the good work Cheers 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I passed by Titi once in my life back in 1990 ... probably too young to enjoy it . The roads were winding back then . Now looking at yr video and listening to the history behind it ... makes me want to explore it all over again ... Thank you Elmo for sharing !
Thanks Elmo for your hard work to recommend a suggestion that you have not been to yourself. Thanks for the research to furnish us with the details to Titi. I have not been there but would like to upon watching your video. Keep up the good work. May God bless you.
Thanks for the history lesson on the Japanese massacre of the Titi villagers. It is very good that we know of the incident. Will try to check out the memorial the next time when I pass thru Titi. I heard heard of some Japanese war stories from elderly folks but have come across the Titi massacre until now.
Very comprehensive research. My 2 friends all bear the surname Siew n it seems to be the most common surname there.Titi used to sell sweet pineapples n sweet potatoes. That snack is known as Mah Chi Chang which looks similar to Sak Keh Mah as it contains egg.Thank you for the nice history.
Thanks for your rich history review of Titikong. I always wonder what's d history behind this village. You're truly unique Malaysian reviewer of historical story combine with food. Thanks 🙏 Elmo. You're a gem
