Unique Chinese Heritage

Life's been good.

Kuan Yin Temple.

Few days ago my friends and I gathered around Kuan Yin Temple for a shooting. The big spotlight was mainly on Huiting, as for me - if there's fun, there's Joanne (; ok back to the topic. We didn't have to refer to scripts, just gotta be ourselves. After that, we went to visit a very well-known joss stick maker in Georgetown.

The products.

The old man taught us some basic skills to make joss sticks. In the end, I failed the mission absurdly by making a sausage instead of a joss stick. He also explained a lot of stuffs about joss sticks, like some history and the process of making, even showed us some of his collections - things that money can't buy. I was impressed with his unflinching effort.

I'd say, making joss stick is no easy job, it requires techniques, techniques that gained from almost a decade of working! Let's preserve our tradition, tell your papa mama aunty uncle about the joss stick maker, his joss sticks are really fragrant, they are no ordinary stuffs! B T W stay tuned on Astro Discovery Channel ! (;
