Bribe-Free Malaysian

I saw this sticker pasted on a car somewhere in my taman today. I found it cute, don't you?
Bribe, it is such a  common word or attitude we can see here in our country
We always point our finger to the "guardian" of our country and also the authority.
Put away authority, it is somewhere I do not want to comment and not able to.
Talk about our guardian, it is true somehow.
When we got caught of speeding or driving in "so-called" wrong manner, they fined us
Yet before the saman ticket being issued, there is another procedure of stretching hand under the ticket
And people squeezing in the "head of agung" under the ticket
When we pointed to the "guardian", why don't we look at ourself as well?
Do we willing to let them bribe?
We accused them for bribery and bombarded our hatred towards them
Yet do we hate ourselves when bribing them?
Don't people always bribing them in order to pay less?
We, in fact, are the one who help nurturing this phenomenon...
To build a bribe-free Malaysia, it is a long way to go.
To bring it succeed, we ourselves shall hold hand and work it together but not keep accusing people (thou they are the major culprit)
Shall proceed my study plan, all the best!

太阳公公，你好！

今天的朝阳，冲散了昨晚的阴沉

而麻雀，昨晚弥漫在心里的烟霾，也被这朝气，扑得一消而散

麻雀太喜欢太阳天了^^

昨天，被一个（自认）很好的同学的话给中伤了

活了21年零九个月，麻雀被人说了”嘴巴大“

何等开心的形容，足于让麻雀伤心了一整晚（男生嘴大走四方嘛）

其实，麻雀自认自己的话是多的

但麻雀很清楚，这不是大嘴巴

大嘴巴，是嘴巴大地别人的秘密都流漏出来了

麻雀扪心自问，并非这样的人

而你，在没有真正了解麻雀，就断定麻雀是大嘴巴，这对于麻雀是极之不公平。

且身为未来媒体人的麻雀，对于这个封号，更是打击甚大，毕竟媒体重要的是其reliability（麻雀诠释为别人对于你的信任）

今天的朝阳，却告诉了麻雀，面对问题，不就是应该要坚强吗，秉持正面的想法（不要讲我跟太阳说话）

对的，麻雀凭什么去自艾自怨，说你的人都没什么了，麻雀又何苦自己找麻烦来烦呢？

世界那么大，麻雀如此的渺小

你可以跟一百个人诉说你的故事

但，未必能得到一百个人的喜欢和回应

因此，想得到全世界的人喜欢，那更是不可能

你可以没理由得不相信麻雀，麻雀没办法

而，麻雀也没办法相信不相信自己的人了

毕竟人与人之间的友情，是攀着信任这道城墙而建立起的

在你说出这些话的时候，麻雀知道你非有意中伤自己

但是那已是你在麻雀身上标上不信任的代号了

麻雀，会保持沉默，不会多说话

但是，这是麻雀自己的生活，麻雀有主宰它的权力

麻雀不会管别人怎么想，麻雀依旧会依照自己喜欢的生活方式过活

但，肯定，麻雀会在你面前，沉默（因为这是你喜欢的生活方式，麻雀尊重你）

******************终****************************

想了想，讲了讲，能丢的都丢了，心情也轻松了

今天，心情真好，不但有太阳公公的照耀，此刻的麻雀，被一股香味所环绕着

吃了几天的萝卜杞子粥，今天终于加料了

今天的特别餐单是罐头橄榄油吐拿鱼

选择它的原因是，根据某本书，吐拿鱼有帮助加强记忆力的功效

麻雀的记性，真的严重到某种程度

每次做的事情，转眼间就忘得清光，或许这是不吃饭的原因

对不起，麻雀就是讨厌白饭，因此才变得越来越笨了

话说回来，买了两罐的吐拿回来后，麻雀的钱包只剩五块水了！！！！！

仅仅的五块水，要怎么过完这个考试周

麻雀又不想再到井口提更多的水了

得留至旅行再好好花了

有谁可以告诉麻雀怎样省钱啊！！！！！

我爱分享

第一次听到这首歌，麻雀深深记得是看《如果·爱》
当时深深被这首歌的旋律打动，看完电影后，真的应了一句成语-余音绕梁
那几天，麻雀不断哼着这首歌，不唱如果爱，却唱着这首陪衬的小曲

不知道为什么，这首歌，有一种力量，深深牵住麻雀的心



今天早上，突然在脸书看到屋友分享的这首歌，让麻雀再重新跌入这个套子里
几年后重新听回这首歌，依旧好听
而这一次麻雀诠释这首歌的意境不同了
麻雀不在乎是否拥有什么人，也不在乎有没有人离开自己（也没有人给麻雀离开）
但是麻雀独爱这句：当你觉得外面的世界很精彩，我会在这里衷心的祝福你
这个你，很喜欢往外跑吧，心总是不能静静的，屁股也总是不能坐下来
心里想要的东西太多了，因此一直不断地向外索取
越是拿，心里就越是不满足
就这样，心里永远不能够满足
因此也总是没办法回家，因为还拿不够！
这个我，是初心
你还没有想外出前，我已经开始筹划出去，是为了什么，我很清楚
待我成熟了，你就外出了
而你一出不归，因为偏离了我，偏离了初心
我很重要，有了我，你才有目标
没有了我，你在外面的世界，就算多精彩，也了无生趣

你会觉得无奈
因为你茫然了
因为你迷失了
因为你忘了我
朋友，活在这个世界上，做很多事情，都需要这个我，就是初心
惦记着这个初心，会让我们在路上走得更加踏实，更加平稳

The day as student reporter (1)

I came back from my Pasar Malam and dinner journey at around 9.30pm(if i am not mistaken)
And I heard a break news from my housemate, Fish...
She told me that her friend's friend was crashed by a car yesterday.
The cyclist, Low told me that she was on her way to new town and lifting her friend behind. They were on the straight road where a car came out suddenly and bumped against them.
The car is a red colour Gen 2 and the car ran away after throwing few words to the two victims.
She told the two when they asked her to bring them to hospital, “I am rushing back home for lunch that I did not eat for the whole morning. Some more I do not know the way to Kampar Hospital."
=.=" this is funny, you make it.
Then she left the victims.
Luckily the victims managed to get to the Poliklinik of Mr Manoof where cheated me before. They got helps from some Samaritans.
Meanwhile, the Samaritans could spot the motorist that they went to seek for her and bring her to the clinic.
The motorist, who is a lecturer of my universiti, Chuah told them that she initially wants to go back to the spot after having her lunch.
Low then told me that is there anyone who will lay down at the spot bleeding to wait for her.
She made her point in fact. Second joke made me laugh.
Low and her friend wanted to go to hospital for checkup as it is too pain(internal) and asked her to go with them. Yet Chuah did not turn up but luckily she went to police station at last.
They lodged a report in the police station and asked Chuah to compensate for the medicine charge and repairing fees.
However, Chuah refused and asked them to claim from insurance whilst complained to the police that her car was spoilt as well
At which, according to Low, Chuah's car is spoilt but with the car plat number dropped. And Low's motor is worse than Chuah.
Low spent RM85 for her medical treatment in the clinic and Chuah refused to pay for it.
Besides, Low told Chuah that her cellphone was spoilt as well during the accident.
You know what Chuah told her. She said that Low has already spoilt it before. So does she means that Low intended to cheat her?
The poor Low told me that she does not know how to claim from insurance and police does not help with the payment stuffs. (weird, I thought every time it is police who does those stuffs?)
The most dramatic part came. After lodging the police report, the both parties went back respectively.
Low's parents then came Kampar from Selangor for their daughter.They went to Chuah's house. She rejected to turn up but called police and claimed that the parents want to hit her....=.=
Seriously, I kept laughing when I was chatting with the girl.
But I hope it does not affect any parties above...and hope everyone can give a space to them. Let them handle it themselves. But not posting it through Facebook just for the intention of revenge.

Let's wish Low get well soon...and hope she can do well in her Final.

All the best, girl....(I think we can be friend..haha...)..
The girl is so friendly. I think is the most friendly interviewee I have ever met so far.
I asked her a lot of questions and still asking her question repeatedly after the interview. When I apologised to her, she replied me "Aiya, is ok!"
When I asked her to take photo for me, she is ok as well. I felt so guilty because asking a patient to do so much works.
The hardest part in my previous interviews of the victim, they always refused to take photo of themselves.
Yet Low is different. She is open with that. (some more is taken by herself....aiz.sorry...)
Thank you girl~
My original study plan was ruined by the incident. I got to catch up as fast as possible and study hard lo~~
All the best~

掰稀客札记（二）-行在金宝

其实就在上一篇去巴刹的同一天的下午四时许，麻雀决定到金宝小镇去闯一闯
这一次去了旧街场一趟，你若问麻雀有什么收获，其实不大，就只是看到原来金宝也并非想象中的一眼望尽
且，麻雀这一次只是花了两个小时的时间去溜达溜达，因此收获并不丰硕
再加上！麻雀那可爱的相机，就那么地不争气，在抵达了旧街场后，相机的小屏幕闪烁着红色的小电池，预告着麻雀：你的相机我即将枯竭了咯！
麻雀抱着不气馁的精神，开始这段“旅程”（称之为旅程，似乎有点过为之）
在前往旧街场的路上，麻雀特骑到之前“杰安“记者介绍的auntie水果档

婆婆问麻雀：”我的档口很美咩？“

这已是第三次到这个小档子了
小档子旧旧破破的，环境也挺糟，没有冷气房间，也没有一张稍微像样点的桌椅子
然而它还是不失顾客，顾客们是陆陆续续前来的
可见其中有其魅力
麻雀点了柠檬水，太口渴了，一路上骑着铁马到这里
真的太好喝了，坦言并非是因为渴了才说好喝，而是真的好喝，柠檬和酸柑的味道很浓，切切实实的可以解渴

很好喝的酸柑汁

再加上auntie加入了陈皮片，味道更香甜
而一杯只要价RM1.20

之前麻雀与朋友稍对小档子有点抗拒了
因为上一次我们就那么即兴地到小档子吃其闻名的水果冰
又大碗又多料又便宜，怎叫人不爱？但，吃了冰的第二天，我们三个都泻了几天
着实的痛苦与害怕
但麻雀却曾告诉他们，一定还会再来一次，要验证是否真的是小档子的缘故
接下来，麻雀便毫无目的地踩着铁马在旧街场打转
想了一回儿，便把铁马停泊在一条街边
抬头一望，即见到一个挺不错的牌匾，想说现在的人活得真简单
现在的人啊，两脚一伸之前，都可以享受着别人的服务，服务您替您写遗嘱
所以有时候在想，很矛盾的，因为这是一个就业机会
但同时也是一个让人偷懒的理由（这不是一个好例子啦，但情况类似）

还提供上门服务呢~

牌匾下是一间书局，麻雀决定进去逛一逛，顺道看看有什么隐藏着的书籍

只卖参考书籍的书局

结果书局里卖的都是小学生的参考书及中学生的备考书册
拖着无奈的脚步，我踏出书局
麻雀猜想，老板娘大概也不知道有人进来过
因为麻雀踏入书局时老板娘在打瞌睡呢，踏出书局亦在打着瞌睡，想必老板娘的梦应该很香甜
麻雀走了好一会儿，经过了新开的金陵大酒楼。。旁边的VIP停车场

金陵大酒家豪华的VIP停车场

好小的一个，且就只有那一条一眼望尽的小巷子作为停车场
懊恼极了，曾经听过小莫说的同时也做过一个报告，关于金宝的发展
小莫说有一次她听大众银行的经理投诉金宝不适合作为一个大学城
因为金宝本是一个小镇，它的容积等各条件不足以支撑大学城这个宏大的计划
因而延伸了许许多多的问题，如交通等等
且，本地人也逐渐变得以利益为本了
而眼前看到的这个小小的停车场，不禁让麻雀想到金宝人为赚钱而不遗余力
为赚外地来的人的居住费而在这明明已经非常拥挤的旧街道，建起这大酒楼
接着，麻雀跑到对面街了
因为看到一间不那么显眼的书店

在这里可找到不少很久以前的漫画和杂志

进到书店，发现书籍并不是其主要售卖品
而吸入眼帘的尽是过期的杂志、漫画
麻雀逛了好一会儿，看到许多以前的杂志，还有陪伴麻雀度过童年的蜡笔小新、小叮当等漫画

这里有很多我最爱的杂志，且卖地挺便宜的

最后买了一本漫画，我便离开书店
麻雀继续踩着铁马往里面骑去
骑进了华龙巷，多数华裔金宝人居住的旧住宅区
也从华龙巷，麻雀看到一个很特别的地方
这是住宅区，但被一围的铁篱笆给围着了
里头的环境与华龙巷也不一样
于是麻雀穿过小巷进入这个铁笼子里
里面的住家都是矮矮小小的，一律都粉上白漆

TNB的屋子都小小的，真粹致

就是环境特别清新与安宁
麻雀看到几个印度小孩在草场上自由自在地跑着，玩着，真好！
后来骑到了铁笼子的尾端是一间很大，类似工厂的建筑物
外面写着TNB store，不明所以然，麻雀还是决定骑脚车出去了
毕竟那时已近6时了
就在欲离开之际，麻雀看到一位印度妇女在屋前收拾青菜
麻雀鼓下勇气，用着破破的国文和印度妇女聊天
原来这里是TNB，听妇女说是TNB职员居住的住宅
（刚开始我还误把TNB听成DAP...lll）

看到它连停放车子的车棚都那么可爱

略谈了一会儿，且道了别，麻雀便乘着铁马离开，决定回到旧街厂的古庙去
每每路过这在金宝大路旁的古庙，麻雀都不禁升起好奇心，但都不曾停下过

听说只在8.30am开门的古庙，增添了多一份的神秘

这次终于可以去大饱眼福，看看葫芦里装了什么药
不幸的是麻雀去到古庙时才发现古庙的大门是紧闭着的
在古庙隔壁经营商店的老Uncle告诉麻雀，通常都是在8.30am左右才开门的
好。。下次麻雀必定再回来
大约6时20分吧，麻雀便骑着铁马，结束今天的旅程
下一次，麻雀将会规划另一次的”孤独“之行程

孩提时期最爱吃的零食，在auntie的小档口邂逅了它们~好像说：好久不见咯！

个人觉得蛮特别的建筑物，不知道是几时建的

最近我爱上了天空

现在才知道原来有接生院这样的东西~

中秋将近，大街小巷都挂满了美美的灯笼，还有售卖包装得很精致得月饼

对了，在经过金陵大饭店时，见到店门口挂满了美美的红灯笼，还有那佳节不可或缺的月饼礼盒，各个包装得很精致，想必里面的月饼肯定不输别家。此外，还看到了我爱吃的公仔饼~
时间过得真快，快得我们都来不及停下脚步休息，就遇上了中秋节，这么一个让一家人团聚的节日。这个中秋，你回家了吗？

掰稀客札记（一）-行在金宝

昨天，跟着电脑爸爸和祖哥乘搭火车回来金宝
一路上，一直谈着这两天要去哪里玩，然而一直没有结果
终于，得到了一个结果，电脑爸爸说在家收拾房间，好好休息。。。
这就是讨论那么久得到的结果
就在此时，麻雀的脑袋在转动，在打滚着
麻雀想为自己做了一个决定
他们不去，麻雀就自己找地方去吧
然而一个女子人家，麻雀也不好骑脚车去太远的地方（翅膀又退化，不能飞翔）
最终还是暗自做了决定（麻雀不喜欢没有主见的人）
麻雀决定靠自己的力量，骑脚车去旧城（oldtown的直接翻译）
不待何时，麻雀待会儿，四时左右就出发
最近看了风学长推荐的行者中的搭车去柏林
说真的，有那么一点的刺激到自己想靠自身力量去旅行的想法
然而，麻雀同时也被其他的事实打击
就是每每他们要搭车时，都会出示他们的身份证和节目信件，以获得司机们的信任
然而像麻雀这一般人又怎么有法子得到他们的信任
好了，不说了，麻雀要去“旅游”了

Life in Kampar (1)

My another aim to go Pasar Pagi( Doraemon doll biscuit)

A thought to go Oldtown pasar pagi spring up when I was having my oat milk this morning

"Deal, I am going to Pasar to buy my everyday one apple"

People always says "An apple a day, doctor keeps me away"

Without any hesitated, I shut down my laptop and began my "journey"

I always love to cycle to pasar in the morning by myself althought I always told by Jool Bro not to do so

I enjoy cycling to somewhere by myself whereas I could go wherever I wanted and whenever

And waited for no one

Besides, I initially plan to go for a jogging this morning yet I was unable to wake up

Hence, when there is a chance for me to exercise, how could I forgo it?

Everytime when I cycled in the "uncultivated" desert path(the short cut from Eastlake to new town), I felt worried yet relax

Relax due to the wide sight. Worried due to its emptiness with no one there. Thus if you faced any harm no one could help you or even hardly to hear your shout.

It is contradictory isn't it?No choice, since our life is always very paradoxical..

To my fear, I was once met someone really annoying while I was cycling on the way to oldtown

The guy in his midage who was riding motor passed by me and he made a sudden U turn in front of me

I was afraid yet pretended calm and usual, and not even looked at him

It was lucky that he wasn't kacau me then

However, when I was on my way back to Eastlake home, I was just so unfavorable that I bumped into him again!

He called me "Ah Moi" and stared at me

"Shit!" I shouted....in my heart...and I cycling as quick as possible

And I wasn't that unfortunate that there was other people and he couldn't further doing something..^^

Ok, first thing first, I shall continue my story

Meanwhile, I reached Pasar and I directly parked my bicycle in front of the fruit stall where I have always patronized before.

That fruit stall uncle always gives me discount with the so-called "student price"

The fruit stall sits at the front row of the stall which faces to the entrance(not exact faces to)

There are always both uncle and auntie who selling fruits in their stall. You may pay a visit there and with the look like student(if you looked to old, wear your ID lo...XD)

I bought 10 apples with RM7. I have no idea if it is expensive or cheap. Since the apple was sold RM0.80 per each originally and now he sold me RM0.70 thus I could say nothing

I asked uncle if there any mangosteen this time( You know I have been craving for mangosteen weeks)

Uncle: " No, we don't sell mangosteen now."

Suang: "Why?I wanted to eat mangosteen la.."

Uncle: " Mangosteen in month May, June and July are sweet and huge. Yet do not buy mangosteen of August and September as they are tiny in size and do not taste good"

Suang: "Oh~"

Uncle: " You know, mangosteen in its early season and latest season doesn't taste good. Thus we only sell mangosteen which guaranteed sweet and big in its middle period"

Suang: "Ok!Next time I buy from you when there is mangosteen season,Bye!"

I got lecturing by the fruit stall uncle when I asked for mangosteen...He told me also that the ways of plucking the fruit also another knowledge to guarantee the freshness and sweetness of mangosteens

I have always known that there are many knowledges we got to learn in different industry

And the fastest way is to communicate with people, especially those elderly.

I got my bicycle after paying money and cycling led to the pasar pagi where mostly selling foods

I wanted to buy doll biscuit(公仔饼) since I did not managed to eat it in my hometown

A packet of Doll biscuit which costs me RM2

Crab doll bisuit with lotus filling

I have bought three doll biscuits with filling and one packet without filling. It was RM4 altogether.

Pineapple filling doll biscuit( the taste is so so)

Then I bought some tidbits from the an old lady which just opposite to the doll biscuit stall

I got to prepare for my exam...^^

When I was about to leave, something grabbed my attention and fascinated me

I could not bear to it and I walked to it

It was MANGOSTEEN vendor's stall!!!!!

"Come! Come! Come! RM2.50 per kilo!"

The sound was so attracting and graceful at that moment

The violet color with some yellow dots was so nice and beautiful although it is a bit tiny

The lecture of "August and Sept's mangosteen isn't taste nice" has been forsaken and casted away

It is useless to cast pearls before swine or playing nice musical insturment before a cow, which also means to lecturing a mangosteen theory before a mangosteen fans

My favourite ever...

I could not help to stretch out my hand and started to pick the mangosteens

Soon I have chosen a packet of mangosteens(1kg, I do not have much budget)

The fascination that you could not resist

I tried to bargain to the uncle

"Uncle, sell me in RM2 enought la..."

Uncle was considering and asked another uncle beside

"We sold it cheaper already. It was originally sell in RM3", said another uncle.

"O...", i got nothing to bargain and paid him RM2.50 like a little deer

Seems that I shall sharpen my skill of bargaining, indeed

Is there any lesson or soft skill programme to enhance my bargaining skills?

If there is any, I would definitely join one

Then I walked to where my bicycle was parked

I saw a tiny creature along the bridge

The tiny kitten laid beside the bridge

It was a new bornt kitten with its fur standing. I know she is fear and helpless

She refused to see me...><

I could do nothing but just standing there to capture her picture

I thought of Ms. Brave when I saw this tiny cute kitten

Ms. Brave loves cat so much...in the level you can't imagine

I tried to inform people around to watch her as she is too tiny that I was wondering people might step over her

I saw another auntie was there and watched her then I started my bicycle journey before the sun is too large and hot.

Hey！There's my university~

Jool Bro asked me to view a link he posted in Facebook yesterday. He said that there is something our respectably Mr.F told him yesterday about his plan.

I read the news then. It is regarding the donation at which a philanthropist whose name is Koon Yew Yin intended to donate money with RM30 million to UTAR, my university. The money is donated for the hostel building when students in UTAR got to pay more than RM300 for their rental fees (I meant Westlake house).It sounds great, isn't it?

The A block building of UTAR(took from internet)

However, what a waste, our honorable UTAR high management, as well as MCA casted the fabulous money off...

I remembered what my senior told me before. She said that there is someone(forget his name already) who owns the land of new town. All shoplots in new town are under his name, as well as the westlake residence area where most of the UTAR students stay.
Now you know the reason why UTAR turn out Koon's money.
It has been so ridiculous when I recalled what people said before. People said that enter UTAR is good due to the cheaper tuition fees.
UTAR is a semi government school so the fees will be cheaper
Yes, exactly. It is cheaper if compared with other colleges
Yet why they now using this opportunity to earn students' money?
Why don't they decrease the students' expenses as lesser as possible?In contrast, they tended to earn students' money,
They played the role as a businessman but not as one who involved in education
This has been sarcastic when they tend to earn money from the poor student espexially when most of the students are chinese(i am not trying to be racism)
Yet what on earth they are doing? When most of the chinese students unable to enter government university then they chose UTAR where they think the tuition fees is affordable
And now MCA uses UTAR as a instrument to earn students' or their people money
When the election draws near, the people will stand out and say" We as the chinese, should mingle each other. We should work together to achieve our goal. Thus vote me"
When it is the critical period, sweet words is heard and honey promised is given
This is the society where we are living nowadays...
Since we are all labelled as Malaysian
we shall put our effort in building the nation but not talk only on the paper and never walk the promised
To make our nation better, the first is to think for the people instead of think of ourselves
Now, I am waiting for the follow up news of this issue
It will be quite interesting I guessed?

Exploration to Green Ridge (2)

Now it is the second day to Green Ridge

I called CEO around 10am yet he told me that he was too tired to go...

I felt so disappointed seriously. I thought that why he can be so irresponsible...xp..can simply said too tired then not going

As what we planed, this time we gathered in front of steamboat restaurant at 11am and waited for Ah Ba to come

Mosquito came just after we arrived

Oh...by the way, we got another two new members this time who were big sister and professor yeen...

Big sister refused to go the day before because she pantang of the date

Jool bro brought salt this time and he wore long pants,so do mosquito

Meanwhile, Ah Ba arrived by CEO's motor!!!

CEO came at last..I scolded him for bluffing me...aiz...><

Ok, now seven of us were here that we started our tour

All shoes this time

Everyone were wearing sport shoes finally...You know la...people are always very gatal...need to get some lesson only they willing to be prepared...

New trend created by Mr. PC...Tun, you should learn this...^^

Ah Ba wore long pants as well and hid his pants into his long socks..=.=(i would rather been sucked by leech,haha...)

We changed our route this time that we climb the drain behind to get to the hill

We saw the place where CEO climbed up yesterday and where he said nothing

There was a half-way building tablet and some benches

A secret staircase was found after the tablet

Suddenly, one of us saw a hidden staircase at the left hand side of the tablet

We were so excited and mounted it with big steps

"This must be the right way this time", I think all of us thought this at that time. It was 11.30am.

We kept climbing and climbing that soon we started to feel our heavily breathing

We started tired. Nevertheless, none of us shouted to rest

We were too excited to climb up following the vividly pathway up to the hill

The pathway can be seen clearly...

I saw a trench in the half way.

I looked at mosquito and gave her some hint

The trench that made both mosquito and I communicate using heart..^^

"Don't you think it is like something...", I asked.

"Yeah Yeah.." mosquito answered. We were so tacit understanding each other as we have made an agreement that no any words of "war, japanese, british.." spoken in the jungle.

We continued to walk further into the jungle

The white bandaged left after which we used as a guidance to us

We saw some white bandage on the tree and it might be the hint left by the hikers before, perhaps Mr. Chye I thought.

Who is Mr. Chye? Alright, he is a war historian who did a lot of researches on the battle of Kampar for years.

He likes to introduce Green Ridge to the people to prevent people from forgetting the epic and important war. Heard that many army officers came to him to get his lecturing.

Bamboo was seen in the jungle as well

Come back to where we stop. we saw bamboo in the jungle as well which we thought that quite unique to find bamboo in jungle.

The road became harder that we passed by another huge trench. It probably was a river(maybe).

There we saw a well just after the trench.

The well which impressed me a lot

We stayed at there for awhile to take photo

Big sister kept saying that there must be someone lived at here in the past.otherwise why there's well here

I now remembered that I did not tell her the background story of Green Ridge.

We pretended nothing and kept walking into the jungle

until to another blind alley that no path can be found

O...another things that i have forgotten...we saw many forks in the road that we have to choose the way

We kept turning and turning in the jungle to find our "destination"

We thought there will be a monument or kubu in the top of the hill

After few rounds turning in the jungle, everyone were exhausted and almost giving up

I decided to send a msg to Tun, telling him that we could not find the kubu

Besides, I also asked CEO to ask Shu who came before the map

Tun asked me to ask elween (senior) of the road yet the point is he has never been here before.(CEO then called him and told him that we were in Green Ridge XD)

Shu called me back after he got my message. He told CEO the way but everything were too abstract

The staircase built by the British I think

He also told CEO that it was his local friend who brought him into the jungle previously

I asked him to ask his friend for detail....however....

After waiting for almost an hour in the jungle, we decided to leave the jungle

However, Ah Ba, CEO and I could not admit the defeat and we kept searching for ways yet it was useless

What we got is more injuries from the thorn of the plant...
I can remember what Jool Bro said, "how can I earn money with my leg hurt"
Thus that means that other than legs, his another part cannot face people...

Thorn that hurt our beautiful leg

At last we went back to where the tablet was and took the picture of the tablet

Then only we went back to Tesco, our base, to have our lunch~

At night, when I google-ed the Green Ridge again... I find no any words of kubu or monument in the jungle

What i got is only trenches and holes where British army hid to shoot Japanese troops can be found in the jungle...=.=...so it means that we were there already

Wow...we managed to get there without any guidance of the local and with bare hand...

This is the spirit of us...I guessed..

By the way, while we were in the jungle, my friends told me" Your chief editor treated u so good hor...ask you to come here to play."

Some even told me that I should have invited him to here...Yeah...I should..><..haha...

Gave tribute to them who killed

Throughout the journey, honestly I don't feel any strong sorrowness while I passing through those trenches...

I think it is because I was not there and I could not feel the feeling they got

What I can do is to pray fro them and hope them to rest in peace...

Buddha bless them....

Spirit of satu padu is important in a jungle hiking

The drain where we started our journey

 

Exploration to Green Ridge(1)

It was 25th of August. Ah Ba, Jool Bro and I have our breakfast at Bamboo around 10.30am(our plan was to gather at East Ocean restaurant at 10.30am）

You know la, our CEO always being late one...^^

Then we gathered at the steamboat restaurant which near to Tesco

where we parked our iron horse

CEO told us that it is just in front us and asked us to park our bicycle there

"What!!" three of us shouted it out "I thought we were cycling into?"

CEO pointed to the hill just in front of us and said "There is Green Ridge,how do you cycle in?"

The hidden entrance to Green Ridge

We looked at the drection he pointed and found nothing.
Nevertheless, without complaining any single of word, we parked our iron horse and followed CEO

We walked across the road (quite fun) and here we arrived the entrance

Now move closer to the entrance way

We got five members altogether that day(CEO, Ah ba,Jool Bro, Mosquito and I)

And realised that we all were really "well-prepared"

Except me, all of them were wearing sandals

Shoe vs Sandals

And none of us wore long pants which is a MUST for a hiker

After a round of photo session, we entered the jungle with fully excitement

A long pathway can be seen clearly once you enter the jungle

The pathway into the jungle

I felt relieve as it is not as hard as what I thought

I personally like the jungle indeed 

The sunlight is at everywhere

There are beautiful fresh grass and huge tree

We walked according to the pathway until we faced a dilemma

Chin Eng went up and told us there's nothing uo there

There was a slope in our right hand side which leading to uphill and there was a path leading to the front

CEO offered himself to run up to the slope and he told us there was nothing other than some stone that seems like being developed by someone else

OK, then we decided to walk forward instead of standing there to think more

Yet, the more we walked further, the tiny the pathway is

We did not think much that time

It seems be normal as no such thing like easy way in a jungle

Especially when it has been abandoned for years and was a war site previously

Until we reached to the blind alley, CEO asked us to turn right and climb up

He said that he saw the instruction from internet

This is the beginning of sesat

Without any suspection, we followed his instruction. We climbed up to the hill.

I saw the trees there were being cut and wrapped by someone

It enhanced my belief that we were in the right way to our destination

However, the road became harder and harder that we could not move further anymore

CEO ran up to the hill where no pathway at all whilst Ah Ba checked another direction if got any road

Ah Ba then walked back and told me that he saw a huge lizard(四脚蛇）

While CEO returned back I saw he shouted and scratched his toe

Concurrently I saw Mosquito grabbing something from her leg but failed

I immediately helped her to grab it and threw away

I've been told that it is leech soon after I threw it

This was my first time touching the leech..who knows that I got more chances to meet it after all

While we were thinking of the pathway problem, Ah Ba's slipper broke

We did have a common understanding after this

Without any dispute, we decided to withdraw from the jungle

It might be not a hint but it does to us

We left the jungle using the factory road

Exit to the factory beside

The workers were curious of us but we ignored them

I wanted to tegur sapa to them but CEO said they will not know about Green Ridge

That's all our first day in Green Ridge

We decided to do more research in internet then only explore the place the next day

Besides, we wanted to be well-prepared only enter the jungle again

We went to back to Tesco at which Jool Bro's bicycle tyre broke

This is the third accident happened to us in just two days...

Beautiful big tree

We saw the board only after we came out...=.=

Soon after we came out from the factory, we found something!!!
Jool Bro realised that his toe was bleeding and so to Ah Ba...
And they saw leech on their toe!!!
I lower my head and found that my leg was bleeding as well but the leech has gone
Ah Ba just called my name and he was stunned
I quickly helped him to grab the leech from his toe and threw on the road
Now I became the expert of catching leech...^^
Yet my way was wrong...i barely remembered my mum was once told me that if leech sucked your blood, you cannot directly pull it from your body but pour salt to it
Meanwhile, their toes kept bleeding, non stop...haha...so do my pity leg...
Hence, next time do remember to bring salt before you entered a jungle...^^...
