From my experiences frequenting Bukit Indah morning Markets and Perling wet market, don’t buy chicken or seafood at morning market cos you can get the same thing about half the prices at Perling wet market.
I normally go morning market to get my preferred type of pineapples sells by an elderly bui bui man who also sells corns. The Rm2.50 nasi lemak, the Xiao Mei nice Rm2 Kuik dada, also a stall that sells small sweet potatoes and papaya sells good banana chips at Rm6 a pack. It is not the black brownish kind of banana chips.
Will buy fruits at morning market which is at good prices comparatively to malls.

Perling wet market has a veggie stall that sells authentic Kuik bangkit and charcoal bake love letters at Rm28 each. Also has arrow heads chips at Rm15 or Rm20 for bigger one.

Can get a big piece of Kim bah law at Rm15.
Also have fresh Ma jiao yu at Rm28 a kg. Bought the biggest piece Of Ma jiao yu last week for Rm33 and it was enough for 4 pax cooked in porridge. Taste better if fried.

Veggies at Perling wet market at an Indian stall is very affordable. A big bunch of parsley only Rm5. This stall is opposite a stall seeming fresh grated coconut and squeezed coconut milk. This stall also sells small bag of yoghurt at Rm1 a bag.

Do try visiting Perling wet market which has
Many stalls selling fresh fishes that make the prices very competitive.

Also has fresh chicken stalls there.

Is there a non-halal section at Pasar Perling?

I didn’t notice it.
Probably not.
Beef mutton chicken seafood fruits veggies etc but didn’t remember seeing non halal.
Many Malay goes there to do marketing
The Indian veggies stall sells a unique kind of veggies that I haven’t seen it before. An Indian elderly man shared that only this stall sells.
It is in the shape of the snow peas but is basically white with purplish edges.

Most malls are opened as they are filled with non Chinese staff.

Yes. Probably not. Unlike Pasar Besar Kulai and Pasar Taman Suria.
Are those purple hyacinth beans that can be found at KK Market?

BSI bus arrival hall, now have lanes 9&10 dedicated for NIISE. It is flanked by 2 banners.

Saw the banners today, so went over to try instead of using e-gate. The LCP on duty quite nice, ask if it was my first time, ask if I know how to check the record to see if entry and exit are successfully recorded.

While I was standing at the banner waiting for the niise app to load, 2 boomers tried to walk into the empty 9&10 lane with passport and was turned away, as they walked out, they had the disgust and angry look. Very clearly, those 2 lanes are different, Malaysia already update their process a bit and put 2 huge banners at the entrance of the lane, and yet, those 2 old farks still behave in the same manner, probably they belong to the same group that queues in the Singapore passport only lane at woodlands despite the neighbouring all passport lanes being empty.

The term that I coined, Red Man Syndrome; standing on a visibly empty road waiting for the red man to turn green before crossing the road and now SG passport queuers; waiting in the SG passport only lanes while neighbouring all passport lanes are empty.

It is enjoyable watching the house burn from the inside

I noticed it takes the app some time/difficult to load around Sentral.
I was sitting where train pax from SG exit & the other day was at KFC, both have this issue.

But at the Indian makan shop (ground level) next to the bus interchange it was fine.

I think that's why screenshot is allowed.
