Night out at Kilburn

On Friday night, we went with the cousins living in Willesden to eat at Nandos in Kilburn. This one serves halal, to cater for the location's multi-racial populace. The place was lively and well patroned.

On the same night, results of the local council election was announced. London now got a new Mayor by the name of Boris Johnson who had beaten the incumbent mayor of the last 8 years -Ken Livingstone. The new mayor sound like somebody who originated from Russia. Looking at Wiki, it was quite surpring to learn that Boris Johnson is only 43 years old and is a great-grandson of Ali Kemal Bey, the Turkish interior minister in the Ottoman Empire around the First World War.

My malay language teacher in SOASC once told us that our identity as malays,indians,caucasions etc will no longer bean issue bec of intermarrying.Then i came a book called a world without borders. What's left is religion to teach us about compassion and tolerance.
