50 SEN FOR A PACKET OF NASI LEMAK



Nowadays a packet of regular nasi lemak (rice, with sambal ikan bilis (anchovies)  plus cucumber and 1/4 slice of egg) would cost about RM1.00 - RM1.20 here in Manjung.  My nephews tell me that it costs RM2.50 and above in Kuala Lumpur.  Wow!  I thought that gone were the days when the Nasi Lemak was 50 sen for a packet until one of my friends, Noraini. bought some for my colleagues and I who were attending a meeting at the Teacher Activity Centre in Pantai Remis.  In the above pictures, you get to see the 50 sen nasi lemak.  It was smaller than the usual packets of nasi lemak and had only rice and sambal ikan bilis but it tasted delicious.
