Some people claimed that Nasi Dagang is the 'Nasi Lemak' of the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, in the states of Terengganu and Kelantan. In actual fact, it is not.
Kelantan version of Nasi Dagang is made by cooking normal rice, glutinous rice, wild rice (which gives its colour), 'halba' and onions together with added coconut milk and is eaten with specially made side dishes of tuna fish curry, chicken curry and slices of cucumber (to make it more tasty and good presentation. Whilst, Terengganu version is excluding of wild rice in its incredients

How meaningful! The money box is so cute... it's like a piggy bank?
That is such a lovely gift. It is something like First Day Cover which will be rare in years to come?

Thanks just me - for enlightening me.
Thanks hazel. Still trying to remember to take photos for my blog.
Hi bp
Yes, its actually a piggy bank just that since it is in the shape of a rat, i thot I shouldnt call it a piggy bank
Yes Judy, those coins are like 1st day covers. Actually 1st day covers are still being sold in Singapore,a nd they do have some really beautiful ones commerating the various festivals, which make excellent souvenirs for overseas guests. We buy them occasionally.
The Rat Money Box is cute. The Coins are sure a good keep!
Hey, we give Christmas gifts, birthday presents, we have never given any new year gift. If there is, it's like exchanging some new year goodies from one house to another.
Should try next year!
yes, most friends do exchange new year goodies - not presents per se.
The moneybox is cute!
Happy CNY to you and your family!
