古龍 is the novel writer.

吉"ji" in Teochew/hokian pronounce as "kek"
That why the signboard said "kek leng"
吉龍 (auspicious dragon)
Sorry sorry, i mis-read the wording,hehehe...already amended the post itself for the correct "word".

One stroke away from the Chinese word 吉 (ji) becomes 古 (gu),hehehe...see, they look almost similar but meaning is entirely different.

Apologize for the confusion over the mis-spelling on my part.

Cheers!

Side notes :

Anyone realize quite a handful of good noodle shops in Batam has their shop sign board ending with the word, Long(龍)? “Long” (龍)means Dragon in Chinese.
