Do You Know Where Kampung Kuantan Is?


Drive with care - traffic can be a little crazy in the mornings in this area.

If you think that Kampung Kuantan is located near Jalan Kuantan, you could not have been mistaken more.
No, it is actually located in Gombak 4rd Mile, specifically, at the back of the 13-storey Teratai Mewah low-cost flats at the end of Setapak Garden.
There is a morning market here and things, according to locals, are pretty cheap. From breakfast to market produce, you can practically get all sorts of things here.
If you are driving by this area, go slow. Old ladies walk and children dart across the roads like they own them. Drive with care.

i see u write a lot about what's happening in Wangsa Maju and other areas near Wangsa Maju, from the beautiful exterior of a temple to your personal recommendations of good restaurants.

I have lived in Wangsa Maju for my whole life but there's a lot of interesting places that I don't even know existed here!

Anyways, it would be great if you could write something about the new Centermart that had just opened about a week ago behind the Danau Kota shoplots.

And..a lil bit of promo here :p
Maybe you could come over my restaurant at Kampung Puah (Gombak 3rd Mile) and write something about it. :p

I have been shopping at this market for quite some time and I have to disagree with your take that the things here are pretty cheap! They aren't.

Also, please be careful when you shop here - there are a handful of traders here that weigh stuff with tempered weighing scales! My neighbour and I were victimised, to the point that we purposely created a scene there to warn others of their (traders)hanky-panky.

Richard,
Maybe you can point out which trader or at least identify them. It is easy to say they tamper with their scales but if you have evidence, then get it reported. This way, future customers will not get victimised.
