June 2008: Puteri Pacific Hotel, Johor Bahru

Been there in June 2008. Almost missed my flight, my bad..

From Drop Box


Of all cities and towns in Malaysia, i really love Kuala Terengganu, and Johor Bahru other than my hometown. Berbeza antara satu sama lain. Satu, bandar yang aman.. tenteram.. (walaupun dah mula sibuk sekarang) satu lagi, macam the wheel that spins 24hrs a day 7days a week. 4am is the only hours that you can see almost no car on the road. But at 5am, it starts all over again. Traffic jam here and there. Banyak kenangan di JB. Terlalu banyak. Pahit dan manis, kelat pun ade.. Some that I dont even want to think about it ever again. Some, I just wont let them go.

Puteri Pacific Hotel, JB. Puteri which is the Malays for Princess, suits the hotel. Especially in terms of the services you get.

From Drop Box


My stay was a deluxe room, cost RM200+ (government rate- hotel kata ni paling murah utk gov rate, yea lleh.. utk bilik yang mahal, memang la dikira murah..). The room was somewhere in Princess Wing. Imperial Wing would be better i think, but of course it's more expensive and better view.


Apa pun, view memang cantik dari sini. Tapi bilik ni je dah cukup cantik. Tak payah tengok luar pun takpe. Hehe. The windows wasnt simply window macam kebanyakan hotel sebab yang ni have really wide one. So, you can have all the view u want from the hotel, including the Persada Johor International Convention Center which is physically connected to this hotel. You can find restaurant there, but its costly. So, want to eat some budget food, go accross the road, you can eat anywhere you want. Its not difficult to find Muslim eatery in Peninsular Malaysia especially in JB..

Next stop when you go to JB is THE TANJONG BALAU BEACH, DESARU. go to next entry.

Oktober 2008: The Orient Star Resort, Lumut, Perak

Gambar-gambar ni semua dah lama disimpan dalam laptop. Kalaulah gambar-gambar ni macam makanan, dah tumbuh kulat ngan cendawan lama dah! Nak ambik la kesempatan, disebabkan TV kat rumah pun dah rosak dekat seminggu.. Koleksi CD/DVD kat rumah pun dah abis aku tengok... (termasuklah Changeling, aku suka la panggil Changelina Jolie... yang dah lebih 4 bulan dalam simpanan tapi tak pernah sekali tengok.. huhu). Jadi blog ni umpama terapi untuk aku memandangkan hidup aku memang selalunya depan TV. kan.. (Mangsa penjajahan teknologi). This hotel isnt far away from the town. It's on the way to the TLDM Lumut camp. Ikut hala TLDM, bila lepas roundabout, baru nak naik sikit je kat bukit tu jumpa la hotel ni belah kanan.. From Drop Box Was there, at Orient Star Resort October 2008 to attend a meeting. As for the room rates, I'm not sure since everything was paid by the BIG "G" BOSS. View from the room was just nice (compared to my stay at Terengganu recently), but i...

Brunei vs Malaysia

Rakan-rakan terdekat ramai yang tahu, aku sekarang sedang bekerja di Brunei Darussalam dibawah perjanjian di antara dua kerajaan iaitu Malaysia dan Brunei dengan mengguna pakai terma 'locum tenens'. Walaupun selama 6 bulan sahaja, apa yang pasti aku akan kembali ke tempat kerja asal dengan sedikit perubahan pada sikap, keperibadian dan gaya pemikiran. Soalan yang sering diajukan pada 1-3 bulan yang pertama ialah, "Seronok tak kerja di Brunei?". Rasanya agak sukar hendak menjawab soalan tersebut secara menyeluruh. Ada pelbagai aspek yang perlu difikirkan. Sudah tentulah, kalau hujan emas di negeri orang hujan batu di negeri sendiri tetap lebih baik negeri sendiri. Sungguhpun politik nampak semakin kucar-kacir dengan keadaan harga barang runcit yang semakin naik dan ditambah cantik pula dengan jerebu yang sedang melanda, tetap aku katakan negara sendiri lebih baik dari negara orang. 1. Kos hidup. Kos hidup disini kalau dibandingkan dengan gaji yang dibaya...
