小城遺事:布莊洋貨店漸入夕陽金鋪林立‧峇市“布店街”漸變“金店街”

News from Sin Chew Daily (http://mykampung.sinchew.com.my/node/137846)

小城遺事:布莊洋貨店漸入夕陽金鋪林立‧峇市“布店街”漸變“金店街”

  • 峇株巴轄人俗稱“布店街”或“客人街”的帆加蘭路,早期是許多人聚集購物的熱鬧街道。(圖:星洲日報)

1 of 12

峇株巴轄市區有一條老街,早期幾乎都是華裔同胞在經營布莊生意,所以許多人稱之為“布店街”,當時經營布莊業者也以祖籍為客家大埔的人士居多,因此也有著“客人街”的稱號。

“布店街”其實名為帆加蘭路(Jalan Penggaram),但因為本地人多數都稱這條街為“布店街”或“客人街”,使這兩個街名遠比其原名更廣為人知。

這條街道兩旁是擁有近百年歷史的二戰前老店屋,其中一家具有多年歷史的金鋪外牆上,更刻有1916年的年份。目前多數店屋仍保留原有面貌,但也有部份店屋則已經過翻新為新式店屋。

當年在這裡開店經營布莊生意者,多數是從中國遠渡到南洋的僑民,本著同是鄉親互相關照之心,一同在這裡開店謀生、落地生根。

70至80年代是“布店街”的全盛時期,當時許多來自峇株巴轄各地的民眾都會湧到這裡的布莊、洋貨店等購物,以選購合意布料回家縫製一件件漂亮的衣裳,或購買生活日常用品。

半數布莊及洋貨店仍營業

經過數十年歲月洗禮,如今僅剩下半數布莊及洋貨店仍在營業,其他則已轉為經營其他行業。

這裡的布莊及洋貨店經過兩代甚至是三代人的延續經營,許多仍保留著傳統的經營方式,或已將全盤生意交託於新一代,為傳統生意注入生命作出轉型。

但也有一些業者因面對大型百貨市場的強烈衝擊,加上面對缺乏接班人的情況,無奈下只好計劃在數年後結束營業。

近年來,“布店街”也迎來一家接一家金鋪開業做生意,當地布莊業者也坦言這條街也可漸被稱為“金店街”,令帆加蘭路就像是一條擁有多個名稱的老街。

“大盛當”搬遷轉型現代化

“布店街”有一家擁有近百年歷史的當舖──“大盛當”,多年來為許多“手頭緊”的民眾提供典當服務,解決他們的燃眉之急。

當年不少人會將家中值錢物品拿到當舖典當套現,因此曾經歷過甚麼物品都接受典當的時代,包括金飾、布衣、熨斗、鞋子、沙龍等,甚至還有人將腳踏車及整台縫紉機搬到當舖典當。

當時當舖是靠經驗老道的師傅(俗稱“二叔公”)來負責鑑定典當物品的價格,並使用傳統秤砣及秤盤來衡量物品的重量。

“大盛當”於去年以轉型為現代化當舖,搬離營業了近百年的老店屋,到隔鄰經過翻修的店屋繼續營業。

該店已除去舊式的鐵支及高座式柜台面貌,改以先進的電腦及電子秤量儀器取代,接受典當的物品也僅限於貴重的金飾、鑽石及名表等,令傳統當舖步入歷史。

張德洲:人潮洶湧情景成追憶

張德洲(71歲)家族經營的義成公司在“布店街”營業了逾70年,他是這家族生意的第二代傳人,他說早期的布店街人潮熙熙攘攘,想要買布料或日常用品的人都會紛來到這裡購物,行人想要在街上走動也非常不易,好不熱鬧。

貨品齊全吸引各族顧客

“當時本地還未有百貨公司開始營業,因此這裡的洋貨店及布莊提供琳瑯滿目的商品,吸引了不少巴力拉惹、巴力士隆、亞依淡等地區的各族民眾前來這裡購物。”

“以前我們還得‘日出而作,日落而息’,於早上7時開始營業至入夜十分,才能應付人潮洶湧的顧客,但如今這些情景只能成為追憶。”

改而轉賣傳統結婚用品

他說,隨著大型百貨公司進駐本市,對“布店街”業者造成巨大的衝擊,加上大型布料專賣店夾攻下,如今前來這裡選購布料或各式貨品的顧客已大大減少。

他表示,該店跟隨時代的轉變漸漸改而轉賣傳統結婚用品,不再像以往一樣只專賣布料及各類洋貨。

目前與親戚藍泉清一同經營該店的他說,由於年輕一輩多已發展自己的事業,這間店也面臨無人接手經營的困境,因此計劃將在3或5年後轉手予他人。

劉應球:傳統洋貨店仍有忠實老顧客

陞發洋貨行第二代經營者劉應球(逾70歲)受訪時表示,早年的洋貨店貨品包羅萬有,雖然是小小一間商店,但可謂是“千貨公司”,貨品小至鈕扣拉鍊等,都有各種款式任由顧客選擇。

他表示,他的父親早期從中國南來到這裡落地生根,開始時經營布莊生意,後來因同業競爭大而轉作洋貨生意。

回憶起當年布店街熱鬧情景的他說,雖然如今面對大型百貨公司的激烈競爭,但是這類傳統洋貨店仍然擁有一批忠實老顧客,因為他們所提供的服務及貨品,不一定能在百貨公司找得到。

老店擁有存在價值

“百貨公司比較難找到像針線、鈕扣這些太小、太瑣碎的貨品,很多人想買這類東西還是會想到來到布店街,老店還是擁有它的存在價值。”

他也說,老一輩的人講求經濟、實惠及耐用,對傳統老店也有著一份執著,所以現在上門購物的顧客仍以中年人居多。年輕人則比較注重品牌,對價格廉宜的貨品似乎並不太感興趣。

劉應球感嘆傳統老店已逐漸步入歷史,“布店街”部份布莊或老店也一間接一間結束營業,迎來其他新行業的加入,但慶幸其兒子有意接手經營他的生意,他也樂於從旁指導,逐步將生意交由兒子管理。

吳保福:少人選購布料縫製衣服

吳保福(84歲)由1962年開始在布店街開店經營布莊生意,他說近年來由於縫紉工資調漲,很多人都選擇購買成衣,不再像以前有那麼多人會選購布料縫製衣服。

曾擔任峇株巴轄洋貨布疋商公會四屆會長的他表示,現在年輕一輩多接受高等教育,對布莊這類傳統行業不太感興趣,因此這裡多數商店仍是由老一輩業者負責經營。

他一手經營的廣發佈莊,如今仍保持舊有的經營方式,但隨著時代趨勢的改變,該店由以前專賣布料,改而也售賣布料成品如床單、沙發套及枕頭套等。

逢過年過節各族購物好去處

吳保福排行第五的兒子吳志城則表示,儘管面對大型百貨公司及霸級市場的競爭,但逢星期天仍然會有不少顧客會來到這裡購物,令平日寂靜的老街顯得熱鬧不已。

他說,雖然洋貨店及布莊生意看似夕陽行業,但是逢過年過節,這裡還是各族人士購物的好去處,只要年輕一輩有意願接手經營,加上作出適當的改變或轉型,這將是能夠發展及延續經營的行業。

不是儿戏

Move from: http://www.wretch.cc/blog/jasonrc/16594346 (by 12 Jan 2011)

爱,不是游戏!

表白,更不是儿戏!!!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

好男人会想很多,

想表白后的一切切。。。

是否还会是朋友?

不想失去这位心仪的挚友。。。 矛盾至极呀!!!

是否恋情长长久久?

不想恋爱有始无终。。。毫无结果!!!

很多个“是否~~~”在脑里打转,

理智但有些自寻烦恼。。。

哈哈。。。

但,这就是好男人的无奈!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

好男人认为,

感情应该是男女双方的润滑剂。。。 而不是拿石头砸自己的脚!

只有彼此关心、加油,让彼此心连心,越过各种障碍。。。

相爱,一直到海枯石烂,至死不渝!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

好男人鼓起极大的勇气表白,

为的就是要负起男子汉,大丈夫的责任!

保护心爱的女神,直到一生一世!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

《爱》之二

Move from: http://www.wretch.cc/blog/jasonrc/16540815 (by 10 Dec 2010)


今日翻开精神粮食,看见两个报道:


“台湾闽南剧《爱》,在新加坡收视居冠,并成功吸引超过半数三十岁以下的人士观看!”

“少年情伤自杀 · FB留遗书坠楼

看上去,这两者新闻,
两者不相干。。。 
风马牛不相及。。。 

但对我来说,有关联性的就是一个字“”!!!


好的。。。各位忠实读者,让我解释一下何谓《爱》
-父母的爱
-兄弟姐妹的爱
-亲情的爱
-友情的爱
-情侣的爱
-家乡的爱
-国家的爱
-环境的爱           。。。等等等~~~




玲玲种种的爱,不胜枚举,但是有多少人能真正了解爱呢? 

爱,让人找到快乐,
爱,让人找到幸福,
爱,让人离开寂寞,
爱,让人找到目标,
爱,让人充满期待,
爱,让人关怀备至!

可惜,

爱也让人以泪洗脸,
爱也让人孤独寂寞,
爱也让人失去目标,
爱也让人心力交瘁
爱也让人痛侧心扉
爱也让人绝望透顶! 



爱根本就像把双刃剑~ 
让不少人为爱而开怀, (此乃幸甚也!)
也让不少人为爱牺牲! (哀哉!痛哉!)
