LABUAN: The image of Uncle Ah Ming, who is popular among Labuan folk for his cincau (grass jelly) drinks, is now memorialised on a mural artwork here.

Uncle Ah Ming, 62, whose real name is Teo Soon Bin @ Teo Soon Ming, said he could not sleep the night after being told that a street artist would paint his face on the wall of a building in appreciation of his 42 years of running the cincau business near Jalan Tun Mustapha.
