Boleh & Ta'Boleh

by Pipit

Two interesting articles caught my eye in the NST of 14 Sept.

1st - Thailand boleh! Tilapia fish skin can now be recycled to make handbags, shoes and even bikinis. A photo shows model wearing tilapia skin bikini.

2nd – Malaysia Ta’boleh! Malaysia has the honour of being the country with the only species to be declared extinct in 2007 so far. And not just Malaysia but good old Penang! The woolly-stalked begonia found only in Pulau Betong has not been sighted for the last 100 years inspite of extensive searches. And they are continuing to cut the forest to widen roads in Penang Hill! Sometimes Malaysia Boleh as well.
