Popped into the local market earlier today and ended up purchasing this 12 inch long threadfin called Ikan Senangin in Malay or Ma Yau Yu in Cantonese .
Was torn between a mammoth , more meaty specimen costing MYR 30 . I really wanted the larger one but since the smaller one was way fresher , with a visible blueish tinge and clear eyes , while the bigger one looked like it was on the way to having cataracts yeah I reluctantly settled for this at MYR 16 .
