Bullet Over Petaling Street Movie 2014 Review

Robert's Google+

Looking for Malaysian made movie in February 2014? "Bullet Over Petaling Street" is definitely need better attention.



Released on February 13, 2014 on Golden Screen Cinema Malaysia amid Chinese New Year festival ongoing. Movie director Sampson Yuen & Ho Shih Phin has invited Debbie Goh as main actress for this exclusive movie. Most of you do not know that Debbie Goh is a former Miss Malaysia Chinese International 1998 and Hong Kong TVB artiste.

Beside Debbie Goh as the main protagonist, the film directors has invited numerous Singapore and Malaysia artist and actress. Chen Han Wei, Jeffrey Cheng, Miao Miao, Steve Yap, KK, Berg Lee, Jamie Chu, and many more. Majority of the recruiter are working as model, TV host and radio DJ.

The movie title is derived from famous street in Kuala Lumpur "Petaling Street". It so called Chinatown by the local community due to vast amounts of Chinese hawkers doing business at there.

The movie is about an intense battle among which association will hold the Petaling Street area after the current association director have resigned and escaped with large pile of association funds without re-electing new leader leaving a utterly mess. Other association sensed opportunity in this crisis to overthrown "Yi Chi Bang" and become the new leader of Petaling Street. Will they succeed to overthrown?

Yu Ping An (Debbie Goh) is elected as the new leader of the Yi Chi Bang despite she was not happy to be at the first place. Due to provocation by 4896 association, she decided to took the dragon staff and sit on the throne with the power over controlling whole Petaling Street economy. She will be facing threats and sleepless night due to political turbulence involving two largest association. In the final chapter, two association gathered together to vote new association to hold Petaling Street with the witness of Petaling Street Community and elderly judges. Overall, parts of the movie are funny, sad, joy, action and thrill.

In the month of February, There are two local made movies screening. "Bullet over Petaling Street" , "Ah Beng Mission Impossible" . 

In my point of view, this movie can fix the first scene part where violence battle emerged. The screen is shaky and made us very headache to watch. Besides, the funny part in the movie is the "GPS" three ladies with bellies saying " GPS stand for Gemuk pun Sexy". GPS acted as bodyguard for Yu Ping An.

The movie is produced by Juita Entertainment. There are new movie coming soon in the local cinema. Support new movie "Fantasia". The company also produced Petaling Street Warrior movie on 2012

Two badminton single champion teaming up against four-times world champion doubles 


Highlight of the match is rivalry become team, China's Lin Dan and Malaysia's Lee Chong Wei up against undisputed badminton doubles champion, Cai Yun and Fu HaiFeng. They never practice together or had any chemistry will they win with their skills ? This is very anticipated match in the badminton history. This is a historical moment for badminton fans around the world.

Badminton doubles required not only skill but also teamwork and chemistry. Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei never practice together and they are rival in many badminton single matches, will they produce a chemistry and win their opponent? It all put into test and it is not a easy test as their opponent is badminton doubles world champion.

Let say they really win the match against the match. It will unfair because it is a very uncommon badminton doubles champion lost a match. Well, it really make sense as if Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan lost the match but it could jeopardize their career in sport entertainment as their reputation is on the line. Despite every result, it will be a greatest badminton game and it had attracted more than 3,000 visitors to the stadium. 

They played really well on the match and it is unnecessary to comment that they both wearing non-sponsored sport shirts to the match. It looked like a casual badminton match yet the badminton double champion wearing sponsored sport shirt carrying "Red Bull" banner. 

Don underestimated both of the team they are carrying sport spirit not for the sake of winning but because they want the world to see the spirit of training, efforts and consistency will create magnificent thing worth well to witness.

A Tourist diagnosed in a test positive carrying H7N9 after felt sick travelling to many attractive places in Kota Kinabalu 



When global epidemic H1N1 few years back, the tourism industry fell to the ground hotels and attractive places left empty people are feared for the dangerous infection. In the year of "Visit Malaysia 2014", Malaysian opted to attract large numbers of visitors to the country by mass marketing and organizing various international events.

H7N9 will gravely impact tourism in Sabah and many people who are working in related industry will be laid off to save cost. The Health Minister of Sabah has confirmed first H7N9 carried by a female tourist from China. A 67 year old chinese women infected by H7N9, who travelled from Guangdong, China to Kuala Lumpur on February 4. 

The women felt body weakened and decided to visit private hospital while travelling in Kota Kinabalu. After two screenings, she was told by doctor the sample was tested positive in H7N9. Dr Subramaniam said, there is no need for panic because H7N9 human transmission is very low.

For your information, H7N9 is a new virus variant and the sources of the virus were likely coming from China. It is a new virus therefore no cure is formulated by virus expert. China biggest livestock market was identified for the cause of infection outbreak.. The livestock in Malaysia is very much not infected.

Although there is no cure formulated for H7N9, Malaysian are unlikely infected by the virus because the weather is so hot the airborne virus would be killed before infecting people. Meanwhile, if you are travelling to China and visit their poultry market, you are likely to be infected by H7N9. The reason for no cure is simply because when China shut down their livestock market and do disinfection, the virus will gone and there is no need for a vaccine that could cost billion making them commercially according to experts.

Furthermore, Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Seri Yahya Hussin stressed that livestock and poultry in Sabah is safe from virus infection. Rest assured the H7N9 did not come originate from Sabah.  

Last few weeks, appearance of H1N1 in Sabah infected a Sabah singer, children and it caretakers. Fortunately, the news media is doing a good job exposing such findings swiftly for the safety of public members.

Sabah Health Department unveils H1N1 cases in various state's hospital affecting children.


After a week of diagnosing patient with various sophisticated medical tools, they confirmed the H1N1 cases in Sabah capital city Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan hospital. It has happened in the month of January on 2014. It most likely happened in Lunar New Year festival season. It is believed the report is delayed because they do not have sufficient equipment to test them effectively and also partly do not want public members panicking.

Borneo Post reported that it is not only children are affected by H1N1. It potentially affecting adult as there are adults being screened positive in H1N1 test although acknowledging adult people has stronger immune system. Patient are likely showing symptoms like cough, fever and flu. Public members are encouraged to stay away from them and they must take a H1N1 test in nearest hospital for the good of themselves and many. 

Director of Sabah Health Department Dr Christina Rundi said, among the immediate measures taken by the department against spreading of disease were given anti-virus shots to infected patient, expanding the screening process to all who had contacted with H1N1 carrier and disinfecting the ward. She also emphasize that staff working in the related hospital are wearing masks and wash their hand frequently as a preventative measure.

Thestar news portal further published the exact location medical practitioner determined the H1N1 cases was at Likas Women and Children hospital. Hospital director Dr Tan Bee Hwai said, five children and two adult caretakers had been tested positive for the flu virus. As a result, the entire ward of hospital located some 10kms from downtown Kota Kinabalu has been quarantined. 

History of H1N1 in Sabah showed that there were 944 infections in 2009 during H1N1 global pandemic and 26 cases in 2011. Although there are significant cases of H1N1 in Sabah, the sources and origins of H1N1 spreading in Sabah is yet to be uncover.

H1N1 expertise believed that H1N1 can be killed by sun's hot ray temperature. H1N1 like to travel to the air if it in certain temperature most likely is in colder air. They are killed immediately exposing to certain tropical temperature like Malaysia. Most of the H1N1 history indicated that H1N1 travel north rather than going south as air is colder at north compared to south east asia. Unfortunately, airborne is only one of many ways H1N1 spread.
