One of my favourite song of the 90s.

The much-hyped SMART tunnel motorway opened on 14th May and I have used yesterday. Its very convenient to all motorist in downtown KL

Now, for the first month, it is toll free. But I heard toll fees would be as dear as RM3.00 . Go and try it today. At least, we don’t need to stuck in traffic jam at F&N Jalan Loke Yew anymore.

Sorry for not posting this earlier. Blogger locked my publishing accidentally and now they have rectified it. So, here’s my 3D2N trip to Taman Negara from 15-17 Dec 2006 with my homies and some of their friends.

We reached Jerantut way too early. Were supposed to meet at the hostel at 8.00AM for breakfast and collect our crap complimentary t-shirts from the travel agent. We reached at 6.30AM. Walked around and waited for the town to wake up.

Hotel Seri Emas is just opposite this catchy red building but why we were asked to wait at this hotel? Maybe they open very early and we can use their washroom. Oh yeah, it is NKS’ office in Jerantut.

I think this is the most striking landmark in Jerantut. NKS Hotel & Travel, our travel agent. This is where we had our breakfast and boarded the bus to Kuala Tembeling.

Kuala Tembeling jetty.

One boat was not enough for all of us….. 24 pax. So, 6 fellas hopped onto this special boat with 2 kwailos. The two boatmen raced to keep us entertained during the 3-hours boat ride.

When we reached our hotel, Mutiara Hotel, it was already lunch time. Checked in and headed straight for lunch at one of the floating restaurant. The food at the floating restaurant was better than at the hotel. We had our lunches at floating restaurant and dinners at the hotel.

After lunch, we went cave exploring. We saw a lot of bats, spiders and a white snake in the cave. Too bad I didn’t manage to take any picture because my hands were full of bat droppings.

All so tired after the cave adventure.

Back in the hostel, Soon Keong trying out his poncho.

These ants bit my toe and it bled. Luckily that was just a split-second experience. No swells no nothing. Only a few drops of blood on my slipper.

Look at the ants !! They are huge.

Waiting for dinner at the hotel’s restaurant

After dinner, we attended a compulsory video introduction of Taman Negara. They said it is compulsory for all organised group trip. Then, after the compulsory video, we proceeded with the night jungle trekking.

Spiders were all that we saw the whole nite.

Here’s the post I promised the other day.

I went to Kuala Selangor one Saturday afternoon for work and I took the opportunity to take some pictures and footages for this post.

So here’s the slimmed down version of my Redang trip movie. Enjoy. But it was shot in Cantonese too. Sorry. I will make English movies in the future.

Sorry for another video here. I just got too many videos to publish and please bear with me. I assure that all these videos are good in quality. No shitty stuffs. Would like to take this opportunity to promote Coldplay. They are one of the greatest band of this era. Please support them and their cause. Make trade fair. Their song Speed of Sound can be heard in the video. Please don’t sue me. TQ.

Ok.. this video was taken during a land rover ride into the remote farms in Cameron Highlands, Malaysia. The guys are all my colleagues. Went there for beer bash. All guys. The language is Cantonese. Thats me, biting the cigarette…. like an ahbeng from china…. like a communist. Haha.

Basically, the video is to show the joy of the bumpy ride. Cool wind, fresh air and beautiful sights. Farms owned by one of my colleague’s relatives. Family exporting business. Flowers, strawberries, tomatoes, vegetations any thing you name it… they have it. Walloped load of strawberries and tomatoes while we plucked… to take home.

For pictures to supplement this video, here it is.

My obsession of KLCC is undescribable. This footage is taken while I was driving along Jalan Tun Razak…. on a flyover bridge after the National Library. The best view of KL skyline is here.
