PETALING JAYA, June 23 — This Ipoh curry mee stall located in Restoran Do Re Mi 123 will be serving its last bowls of curry mee there today.
Stall owner Yap Kian Fung confirmed that he will be opening at Restoran BK 33 Kopitiam on June 26.
Yap has garnered a solid fan base for his rich curry mee offerings served with poached chicken and roast pork over the last18 years.
His devoted diners made a beeline to this Ara Damansara coffee shop.

A year ago, Yap told Malay Mail he felt business had dwindled, most probably due to the rise of new coffee shops around the area.
Moreover with the heat, many diners avoid the coffeeshop during lunch time as the main dining area is not air conditioned and protected by canopies to ward off the glaring sunlight.

Yap, who lives in Puchong, decided to relocate his stall to Bandar Kinrara, an area with higher foot traffic.
Getting into Restoran BK 33 Kopitiam was not easy as many others were also bidding for the spot but luckily he succeeded.

This morning, his assistant was going around their current space to inform their regular customers about the move which has been kept under wraps until now.
Yap is hopeful business will improve there, especially since the coffee shop is air conditioned, making it easier for office workers to grab lunch in a cooler space.
Currently a small bowl of curry mee with poached chicken is RM9, while the larger size is RM10.
For the roast pork curry mee, it's RM10 for a small bowl and RM11 for a big bowl.
Their new place of business starts from June 26 at Restoran BK 33 Kopitiam, Bandar Kinrara. — File picture by Lee Khang Yi
At the Bandar Kinrara place, prices for his curry mee will increase by RM1 but he will add an extra ingredient namely fuchuk to the bowl which is served with bean sprouts, beancurd puffs and a choice of meat like poached chicken or roast pork.

PJ mayor outlines conditions for privatised parking scheme

PJ mayor Zahri Samingon said the privatisation process must not disrupt the existing parking situation in the city. (Bernama pic) PETALING JAYA : The Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) agrees in principle with the Selangor government's decision to privatise the city's parking system, but several conditions must be met before it can be implemented. Mayor Zahri Samingon said MBPJ supported the move as it was a policy approved by the state executive council. However, he said, the privatisation process must not disrupt the existing parking situation in the city. 'One of our conditions is that the revenue (MBPJ earns) must be the same or higher than what we get currently,' he told reporters after attending the closing ceremony of the PJ International Outdoor Expo 2025 here today. 'There are many terms that we still need to refine further, such as the basis for enforcement delegation, how long it will be delegated, and so on. 'So there are around three to four more terms that we need to get more details on,' he said, adding that the council had already met with Menteri Besar Selangor Incorporated (MBI) several times to seek clarification on the plan. He said further discussions will be held with MBI to finalise the remaining details. The state government's Smart Intelligent Parking (SIP) system is set to be implemented in PJ, Subang Jaya, Shah Alam and Selayang from Aug 1. It will involve the four local councils, state-owned Rantaian Mesra Sdn Bhd, and a private company. Enforcement will be carried out by the local councils, with Rantaian Mesra acting as the system coordinator. The private company, which has not been named, will handle day-to-day parking operations. The MPs of all four constituencies have objected to the proposed system, urging the state government to review the proposal and establish an independent, bipartisan committee to reassess the scheme. State local government executive councillor Ng Suee Lim was reported to have said that the state was prepared to postpone the plan if issues raised are not resolved before Aug 1.

The unpaid service taxes ranged from RM19,000 to RM30,000, with penalties between RM3,000 and RM12,000. The offences were said to have been committed at the customs department at Wisma Kastam Negeri in Ayer Keroh on Feb 1, April 1, Aug 2, 2022, as well as on Oct 3 and Dec 1, 2023. Customs department prosecuting officer Azhar Habib, who conducted the proceedings, urged the court to impose a fine of RM5,000 for each charge, citing the accused's record of non-compliance with tax payments and the fact that the offence involved loss of government revenue. Ng, who was unrepresented, pleaded for the minimum fine, saying the business was no longer in operation.
