Guess What? Christine Hakim
Guess What? Christine Hakim
There is a suspiciously strange sort of chicken porridge sold
at a food stall on Jl. Raden Patah, South Jakarta. It is called
Bubur Ayam (chicken porridge) KKN. What does the delicious dish
have to do with the daily mentioned sins of corruption, cronyism
and nepotism? Buyers at the stall owned by senior actor Christine
Hakim, found it was an acronym for Kalo Kurang Nambah (If
insufficient, take more).
There's a nationalist flair to her stall called Warung Merah
Putih, named after the colors of the setting including the
cutlery. Many customers wait patiently to try her various dishes
which include spaghetti, but is unclear whether you can have more
of these at no extra cost.
Christine is certainly in a red and white mood as she was
recently spotted in a mall trooping the colors, in a red top, red
shoes and white shorts. "Ready to be flown up the mast," was the
comment of passersby at her national-flag-like attire. (ste/anr)
