KJ's Rembau - weekend photo series

Some of you are familiar with the name of this small town called Rembau because you hear it often associated with a young and famous local politician.

Yes, it is the hometown of Khairy Jamaluddin, the beleaguered son-in-law of the beleaguered Prime Minister.

Rembau is situated in the state of Negeri Sembilan. It is about 20 minutes' drive from Seremban. Like other parts of Negeri Sembilan, including Seremban, Rembau is sleepy most of the time. The following series of photos were taken on one Sunday afternoon in July 2006.

I'm afraid the photos could have been better had I bothered to walk around the town and get a good angle. But I was kinda self-conscious of the fact that people would stare at this outsider and wondered what she's doing snapping pictures all over the place. So the quality was somewhat compromised because it was mostly point and shoot in a moving car.

Anyway, for those of you who have never been to Rembau, you'll get an idea of what it looks like here.
