Lubuk Manggis

Yesterday we went up to the Lubuk Manggis, near Hulu Langat Selangor. Took about 1hrs drive from Shah Alam. izzit?

Privately owned and managed by a local resident, this is a popular picnic and recreational spot amongst families. The bubbling river waters that are knee-deep make it a great place for children and their to frolic in. A wooden bridge connects the main road to the booths and camp sites where picnic-goers can take shelter in and enjoy their meals and siesta.

trying the water flow... but i failed..!! X X X

(still in learning process mah... right?)

While they BBQ-ing, im taking my time to enjoy the nature... while in my mind said... "Sabah is more nature-ally" But then at the same time i just need to appreciate everything... i t won't last forever! NO COAL! (oppps free ads for the Gomen)

Regatta Lepa 2010 (Semporna Trip 2010 - Part I)

While i'm doing my practical, i got a chance to attend the Regatta Lepa Festival that was held on April at Semporna Town.

Lepa is Bajau for single masted sailing boat which is usually made of Ubar Suluk or Red Seraya Wood. It is an ancient legacy which originates from fishing community inhabiting the coast of Semporna and the Bum-Bum Islands has long been the focal point of Lepa making.

After finished doing work at the office we directly go to Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA) Terminal 2 to catch a flight to Tawau.

While we attending the Festivals, we'll also doing some product updates for a tourist attraction around Semporna and Tawau.

Passing the Majestic Mount Kinabalu

Kinabalu Park, in the State of Sabah on the northern end of the island of Borneo, is dominated by Mount Kinabalu (4,095 m), the highest mountain between the Himalayas and New Guinea. It has a very wide range of habitats, from rich tropical lowland and hill rainforest to tropical mountain forest, sub-alpine forest and scrub on the higher elevations. It has been designated as a Centre of Plant Diversity for Southeast Asia and is exceptionally rich in species with examples of flora from the Himalayas, China, Australia, Malaysia, as well as pan-tropical flora.

My Friend's Engagement

Somewhere around month of May, my friend Mimie did asked me a favor to be her photographer on the engagement's day. I don't want since i don't have any experience on taking wedding or engagement ceremony. She refused and want me to. I told her that i'm doing this just to help her, as friendship matters (wahhhh) and also to gain my experience.
