As for this year, Bukit Fraser Development Board will be organizing another series of International Pahang River Rafting Expedition. For this year, I wont miss it! I will be joining fellow IIUM students to the event. Start from 29th April until 6 May 2007
I went to last year event, and it was so nice, and great. The previous journey are from Temerloh to Pekan. For this year, it will be from Kuala Lipis to Pekan, almost double the distance compared to last year. Huhuu..
I’m still figuring out how I could check my emails, and do anything la on internet along the journey. We will stop at various villages along the river. Might need someone else to do the job. Can huh?
Btw, wish me luck during the journey, will report for the event once got internet connection
8-10 April 2007, Canoe & Rowing Club IIUM organized a trip to Pangkor Island. This 3 days program were participated by 24 students and 1 accompanying officer, Bro Zahari. We arrive on 8th April morning at 10, at Ceria Bogak Resort. Not much that we do on the first day. We do cycling in the evening to Kota Belanda. At night, we have some group activities.
On the second day, we went to Pulau Giam for snorkeling activities. There are one group who drop at Pulau Giam as well. The do kayaking from Teluk Bogak to Pulau Giam, and went back in the evening. We also met other IIUM students, who went there on other programs. In the evening, all of us except me went out for kayaking, to Pangkor Laut, and back to Teluk Bogak. They just took 1 hour. We spend the night with charcoal, burning chicken and fish for BBQ. I hope there were octopus, prawn, etc
Pangkor not really as what I’ve expected. I never though Pangkor Island were so developed, even they have school, police, proper roads, water supply, electricity. Not like other island in East Coast of peninsular Malaysia like Kapas Island and Redang Island. In Kapas and Redang Island, surely you will have a life without vehicle smokes btw, Pangkor Island is a nice place for a vacation, and honeymoon
22 – 25 April 2006, I have joined University Kebangsaan Malaysia’s trip to Sungai Tembat, Tasik Kenyir in Terengganu. The trip was organized for students who took recreation as their optional credited subject in UKM. Overall there were 60 of us, including trainers, supporting staff, and acompanying officer.
We took boat from Musang platform, about 30 minutes passed Pengkalan Gawi, and 500m meters walk. From Musang platform, it took us about 15 minutes to Sungai Tembat. The view accross the lake was very nice, with nice wheather, and a hill waiting in front of us. Upon reaching Tembat platform, we can already saw the waterfall ahead of us. Its was spectacular.
Overall, during those 3 days in Sungai Tembat, we spend the time for revising what they have learn in recreation class through presentation divided into 5 topics. They are first aid, rope and knots, camp craft, orienteering and water confidence. I was incharged for orienteering, and it gives me some time to know what they have learned, and share what I have, and also revising what they do not understand during class, such as map scale.
In Sungai Tembat, we also have abseiling activities, and some unofficial activities with other trainers we do river crossing over a rapid and rock climbing. Sungai Tembat is a very good place for everyone to have some time out of city, especially for fishing. You should try fishing in Tasik Kenyir some times, the fish are really big and bite friendly
26 April – 1 May 2006, I went on International Rafting Expedition, Sungai Pahang, with some other IIUM guys.. Quite an interesting experience, meeting so many people in such a big event. Even though there are some problems, but everything just fine.
Hai, sorry for long silence.. I get myself busy with some other works, and activities
I finally bought my own personal climbing gear.
This is just a few gears this essential in wall & rock climbing activities.. I’m planning to buy more. At least, I can go climbing or go to any building and do repelling with my family.
