Bose Junk Shop - Subang New Village

Bose Junk Shop located in Subang New Village at Jalan Taman Subang Jasa 3 GPS : 3.143864, 101.539177 very near to the Subang Airport perimeter fence on the northern part of the runway. This is really a junk store.. it is well full of junk. You will have to look hard to find what you need and they are all arranged in not a systematic way.

Memory Lane - Ipoh

This is a classic, located on Horley Street Ipoh, GPS : 4.597642, 101.082628. This place was move several times until it is at this place now. In the early 70's I frequent belakang loken till late 80's.. most people from Ipoh call it "Belakang Loken" the name derived from it's being at the back alley of Lam Looking Bazaar and yes! the building actually named as Lam Looking Bazaar as it was embossed on the wall and upstairs is the Perak emporium department store.


Late 80's or early 90's they move the vendors to People's Park (Taman Persisiran Ipoh or Ipoh Riverfront) this probably in line with Ipoh getting it city status in 1988. What a shame. it was a lively back alley, with medicine pedlar, tools seller and old junk sales abound.
