Question: What is home to you?

ooi-kok-sengHome is where the family is. A comfortable and cosy surrounding that makes one feel at home is also vital. These two elements make for a welcoming abode.

Question: What prompted you to make Seri Tanjung Pinang your residence?

I used to take some time off from work to recharge myself through holidays but I have not been able to do so lately due to my tight schedule. Ever since I own this unit, it’s like vacation for me all the time. First-class facilities and quiet environment aside, its strategic location which is just a stone’s throw away from several malls allow me to do shopping and eating out by just a short-distance drive. Most importantly, I enjoy the beautiful seaview.

Sometimes, I’ll just sit by the balcony to soak up the enviable view of the tranquil sea. Jogging or riding bicycle along the seafront promenade is also my favorite past time.

Question: What are the things in life that have brought you the greatest sense of fulfillment?

ooi-kok-seng2I have a rather hectic work schedule during weekdays. So I prefer to unwind at home over the weekends and bake assorted cakes for my son. It is a great way of bonding which I enjoy doing the most.

It brings me great pleasure to enjoy Saturdays and Sundays with my family. The thought of getting home after work makes me feel happy and contented even after a long, tiring week at work.

Question: Please share your thoughts on Penang.

Well, Penang is perfectly sized and is definitely a great place to stay and live. It offers great cityscapes and countless interesting places as well as local delights to partake in. Besides, the pace of life is not as hectic as others, and that make the city ideal for retirement.

Question: Would you recommend the Seri Tanjung Pinang project to others?

The E&O is a trusted brand. Frankly speaking, the developer pays great attention to every single detail, be it the design or construction materials. We are pretty satisfied with the workmanship.

Above all, the transformation of a 4.5 acre of land into an exclusive residential waterpark is simply remarkable. Not to mention the exciting list of facilities that comes with it, with the artificial beach and a spa to name a few. The lush greenery featuring the boulevard also well-reflects the tremendous effort of E&O in this project.

Undeniably, E&O is a thoughtful developer who has the interest of its residents in mind.

Question: What are the notable improvements after moving into your new home?

It used to be very tiring after running errands. But it is very different now. No matter how exhausted we are, the living space just somehow lifts us up as soon we enter the house. Even our friends like to spend their weekends at our place. They would chit-chat or listen to the waves by the balcony, and leave reluctantly after that.

Basically, this has been our routine – enjoying life to the fullest while we can.

Question: What are the attractions in Penang that make you feel it is the best city to stay in Malaysia?

When we were young, we lived abroad for some time and we hardly enjoyed life. Along the way, a sense of belonging came into play, and that’s when we felt Penang is the best place to settle down.

Although it is just a small and lovely city, it has almost everything, from rich culture to great natural resources, entertainment centres, delicious hawker food and breath-taking sceneries. This is what we call work-life balance.
