TAPAH: Even as the Ayer Kuning by-election heats up with incendiary rhetoric, a little Chinese-style kopitiam in Tapah Road has been quietly bustling with customers from all creeds and communities.

The quaint Xin Aun Nong Yong coffee­shop has been serving Malays, Chinese, Indians and people from other backgrounds for the past 90 years and will continue to do so after all the bigwigs and politicians leave after the by-election.
