Sorry la guys... this is actually a last minute trip.. so didn't inform anyone and also it's my first time there, didn't know what to expect... though maybe like night bazaar... (in a way it is)
Paphioboy,
How can one come back empty handed??
Shawn & BA,
Yes, this is an annual event, held in commemoration of her majesty's birthday. It'll last until this weekend (23rd Aug), so there's still chance if you guys wanted to go.
David,
Yes, it's indeed very interesting, too bad I didn't get a sample as my mind was in "hunting" mode of plants, not fertilizers... now I'm kicking myself on why I didn't at least get some to try.... sigh
It's not the same event. The one with link attached by you is a competition for neps and it's very specific. This event in Hatyai is a flora exhibition covering all sorts of plants.
As for bugs, yes I tried (of coz!), can't find these things in Malaysia
. I think it's an acquired taste...
