槟城景点 : Penang War Museum 槟城战争博物馆

以前,对于战争博物馆这些地方,我都不会带孩子去参观。你可能会问为什么?其实,这也是我自己对于这些地方有心里不安的感觉吧!小时候,外婆和老妈就有告诉我,日军占领我们国家时,他们是如何躲避与逃跑。战争是残酷的!

tvN MOVIES LAUNCHES ON ASTRO Channel 435 , AUGUST 1


Astro customers will have even more movies to watch with the launch of tvN Movies. Featuring blockbusters and critically acclaimed movies from Korea, fanscan enjoy both newly released movies and all-time favourite movies that they have alwayswanted to watch but did not have access to.
