Pisang Goreng - Fried Banana

Pisang goreng (fried banana in Indonesian/Malay) is a snack made of banana or plantain, covered in batter or not, being deep fried in hot cooking oil, and is popular in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei.



Pisang goreng is most often associated with Indonesia, and indeed the country has the largest variety of pisang goreng recipes. However, this fried banana snack is also considered native to neighbouring countries; particularly Malaysia, Brunei and Singapore. 

It is consumed as a snack in the morning and afternoon. In Indonesia and Malaysia, pisang goreng is often sold by street vendors, although some sellers have a storefront from which to sell their wares.

柔佛展延本月所有官方大型活动 避免疫情扩散

柔佛展延本月所有官方大型活动 避免疫情扩散

新冠肺炎疫情不见好转,马来西亚柔佛州政府宣布展延这个月内的所有大型官方活动,至于月中的柔佛古庙游神活动则将照常举行,不过据知将减少参与人数和缩小游行队伍规模。

根据马来西亚《星洲日报》报道,柔佛州务大臣萨鲁丁说,作出这项决定是基于三个因素,包括新冠肺炎对个人构成的健康风险,疫情在大型活动散播的风险,以及州政府没有足够资源进行防控工作。

目前已确定被推迟的官方活动,分别有巴西古当国际风筝节和柔州第20届马运会“王者荣耀”嘉年华。

萨鲁丁也呼吁州内所有主办单位,同样展延大型的聚会和庆典活动。当地下来将举行的大型活动,还包括本周六的大宝森节庆典,以及穆罕默德诞辰庆祝活动,目前未知会否另作安排。 

对于拥有150年历史的柔佛古庙游神活动,是否如期在2月14日举行,萨鲁丁表示,已与新山中华公会和五帮会馆的领导开了会,他们告知将减少参与的群众人数,以及缩小游行队伍规模,进一步详情下来将由主办单位作出宣布。
