Phuket town last day

Last morning Rat-U-Thit 200 Pee Road, Patong

Sayonara Patong Beach, Phuket

Day 1- Khamis 14 April

Bertolak dari JB ke LCCT. Transit 2 jam pastu naik lagi kapal terbang

1 jam 45 minit dah sampai ke Phuket airport. 

Cari travel agent kat airport sambil menjawab salam dari pemandu2 taxi. 

Cuaca panas. Kul 2.30pm waktu lokal sampai ke hotel. 

Then baru sedar ada krisis dinner. Decided to jln2 ke Patong instead of beradu di hotel. 

Naik shuttle yg disediakan dan pegi ke Patong beach. 

Jalan2 di Patong sambil usha souvenir shops. Banyak giler kedai. Pantai lak banyak giler pelancong. 

Mat Saleh pun banyak giler. Then jumpa sorang usher restoran India. Promote restorannya dan kami setuju. 

Duduk kat meja, buka menu dan tercengang. Menu dlm bahasa Thai dan English. Satu pun x familiar. 

So belasah aje order. Akhirnya dapat kuey tiaw perisa tom yam yg sungguh masam dan nasi goreng biasa yg sedap. 

Pastu sambung lagi jalan2 dan singgah kedai yang macam 7-11. Hati gembira bila jumpa biskut cap Hup Seng dan Oreo. Tapi cari Gardenia dan Silverbird nmpknye x de huhuhu. 

Puas jalan2 balik lah. Jumpa tuk tuk kuning nak 300$B tanya tuk tuk merah 200$B ok. So jalan. 

Malam jln2 sekitar hotel. Hotel ni ajaib sbb dibina di tgh2 kawasan perumahan yg sempit. Nampk kedai sewa motor. Hmm menarik

Day 2 15 April

Pepagi dah terpacak kat lobi. Transpot ke trip Phi Phi Island dtg on time. 

Singgah beberapa hotel lain pickup orang dah takdir menemukan kita dgn 2 org akak Singapore. 

Sampai di Rasada Port dengar briefing, sewa flipper 100$B dan naik speed boat. 

Lepas 1.5 jam trip muka dah nak biru dah dek boat yang melambung2 akhirnya tiba di Maya Bay. 

Ni tempat shooting cerita The Beach lakonan Leonardo Di Caprio. Tui ialah tourist guide kitorang yg sejukk.

Kat Maya Bay cuma turun pantai dan shoot gambar. Air laut sangat jernih fuhhh. 

Then naik balik boat dan singgah beberapa tempat- Loh Samah bay, Viking Cave, Monkey Bay etc. 

Then lunch di Phi Phi Don (Island). Ni sekali dgn pakej. Sempat lg jln2 usha barang souvenir. 

Pas lunch sambung trip. X jauh dari Phi Phi Don boat berenti di tengah laut dan si Tui arahkan semua org terjun ke laut. Upanyer tmpt nk snorkelling ceh hampeh tul. 

Pakai snorkel dan life jaket terus terjun. Terumbu karang cantik dgn ikan berwarna warni Subhanallah. 

45 minit snorkel pastu sambung lawatan ke tempat seterusnya. 

Sampai di Ton Sai bay lepak lama sikit kat sini kurang lebih 1 jam 45 minit. 

Sewa payung 150$B dan gi snorkelling lagi. Yg kat pantai ni jumpa bnyk terumbu mati. Ikan pun kurang sikit tapi nak banding dgn PD yg ni lagi banyak lah. 

Tetiba Nikeirina panggil.. upanye kena sengat ngn Sea Urchin. cepat2 gi jumpa Tui. 

Mamat ni punya 1st aid pun canggih, dia gi ketuk tmpt kena sengat tu dgn hos snorkel. Tahan sakit je laa huhu.

Lepak manja bawah payung dan kendian balik ke Rasada Port. Puas rasanya seharian punya trip. 

Malam pas Maghrib kuar lagi. Sewa skuter Yamaha Nouvo 135cc 500$B utk 2 ari. Jalan cari makanan halal.  

Kat internet Restoran Al-Gaddafi ada di iklankan. Lokasinya dekat dgn hotel. Bila sampai upanyer ada 1 warong berjiran ngn restoran Al- Gaddafi ni. Mula2 tengok Al- Gaddafi punya menu kebanyakannya makanan Pakistan dari lokal. 

Decided to usha kedai sebelah, Restoran Saveena. Ada bdk dan pakcik pakai kain pelikat tgh makan. Menu lokal disediakan dgn harga berpatutan. 

Dah kenyang gi round2 area Patong sambil mengenal pasti tempat yg akan dilawati esok.

Day 3- 16 April

Pepagi lagi terpacak lagi di lobby. Transport beserta dgn tourist guide si Artyy sampai on time utk city tour.

Bermula dgn Karon View Point tmpt berendut lokal ambik2 gambar gitu. 

Pastu gi ke Monkey School, tmpt di mana monyet mendapatkan pendidikan. Sebelahnya ialah Elephant Camp. Merasa lah akhirnya naik gajah jalan2 namanye Honey. Dia makan 200kg daun dan banana tiap hari. 

Pastu gi Cashewnut Factory yg halal. Kata si Arty harga sini murah tp x rasa camtu lak huhu. 

Dan pada tengahari habis lah city tour kitorang. 

Balik hotel rehat2 dulu coz matahari kat Phuket sungguh terik. 

Dlm kul 4pm kuar semula. Kali ni jalan sndiri dgn Yamaha Nouvo. Target lokasi ialah Phuket Town, bandar utk orang2 lokal. Dgn berhati2 nye kitorg meredah jln2 Phuket. 

Sampai di Phuket town pusing2 meredah celah2 bangunan. Masalah kat sini jalannye tak cukup sainbod.

Kat map ada pulau terdekat namanye Siray Island. Masa nk gi sana x jumpa langsung tanda jalan huhu. 

Berenti kat Shell dan tanya kt sorg mat rempit. Dia x leh ckp Engrish lak nasib baik gepren dia leh speaking. 

Upanye diorg pun nk gi Siray Island. Maka mat rempit Malaysia dan Thailand berkonvoi gi Siray Island. 

Pusing around the Island then balik ke Patong Beach. Destinasi ialah Jungceylon. 

Akak Singapore tempohari suggest gi Jungceylon utk beli souvenir dan makan2. So menuju ke food court mencari kedai tersebut. 

Pakcik jaga kedai tu bantu terjemah menu dgn sebut nasi Pataya, nasi Goreng bla bla bla. 

Abis makan gi massage. Nikeirina ambik oil massage dan Pujaan ambik Thai massage. Uniknya Thai massage ni ialah tukang urut tak guna minyak dan jari. Sebaliknya dia guna siku dan lutut utk mengurut. 

Dah abis meneran dan menahan sakit kitorg gi usha Bang-La road. Tempat paling happening di Patong. 

Kat sini x berani ambik gambar atas sebab safety. Masalah terbesar kat sini ialah kita x boleh bezakan jantan betina dgn sekali kilas. 

Kelab2 dipenuhi dengan tiang2 yg dihiasi dengan lady/boy bergoyang2 macam rumpai laut. 

Takda apa nk buat di Bang-La road so balik lah ke hotel. 

Day 4- 17 April

Pagi terakhir di Patong. So usha warong tempatan tgk lokal breakfast. 

Jumpa 1 warong x jauh dari hotel. Orang sini suka breakfast bubur nasi atau nasi campur. 

Kitorg pilih char kuey cecah susu pekat, buah melaka putih, lempeng manis, noodle dgn kuah santan dan ayam masak kunyit. 

Kul 9pm pulang moto dan tunggu transport ke airport. 

Pengalaman x leh dilupakan list: 

1. Banyak org India kerja di kedai souvenir. Ada yg sungguh rude

2. Bila tanya harga "How much?" Diorg akan bagi korang calculator dan tanya "how much u want? i give u good price". Tapi kebanyakan kali diorg x nak bagi pun. 

3. Harga barang kat Jungceylon lebih berpatutan dari tmpt2 lain.

4. Sea urchin sangat menyakitkan

5. Pakej pelancongan lebih murah dibeli di Phuket berbanding dgn beli online

6. Leh sewa motor dgn harga murah. Cuma kena tau tourist spots. Lagi bagus klw GPS ada map Phuket. 

7. Bahasa English ialah masalah besar. Mintak iron gosok baju pun susah

8. Ada minoriti Islam. So halal food bukannye masalah besar

9. Cari hotel di Agoda.com. Fair quality and price.

What a Challenge

Salam & good day, L said.

"good day" eh? this morning, on my way to work, on the motorcycle lane, on the Guthrie Expressway, they, the cars suddenly slowing and stop. in front of a stopped lorry, there's a car, old proton if not mistaken, damaged on  its front, left side. Hitting someting, or the lorry? owh my... i saw a person coming out, a lady i presume, trying to get her/his baby out of the front passenger's baby car seat. think they're not badly injured, hopefully. Bad accident will kill all people's mood u know. Continue my journey to office while still thinking about my own challenges recently, but still, its a GOOD DAY people!

Budget burst
all most people and friends know i have a brand new car. well, its a cheap~er car compared to Toyota Vios (E, G), Honda City, Kia Forte (high end), Mazda 2, even Proton Inspira. but after sometimes, i didn't have this kind of burden in my payslip, rm900 deductions (approximate amount), monthly. and its been about 5 months with commitment to pay my housing loan, and its sucking me drain! what doesn't make my day is, if (yes, only IF), you pay rm1.4k monthly repayment, and u see the account statement, rm1100 is the interest charged. dem! only rm300 goes to principal. hey, it still a GOOD DAY.

Make it worst
the good thing about visit (outstation) is... u can claim for meal allowance. its once said, meal allowance claimable when u incurred expense on meals. so there u are, u visit- u eat - u claim - u got some profit. but visit don't come all the time...its frequent, but not everyday. so, during 'office' days, the meal expenditures rightfully... expenditures. here's the thing, ever since years ago, we i always having my lunch in Land Office's food court. 1 nasi ayam RM4, and free skyjuice (air suam). or nasi campur generally around RM4 only, excluding drinks.
Now the Land Office were moved, so do the food court. no choice, we are forced to other locations, option (based on distance): Empire Gallery (Teh Tarik, ), Subang Parade (KFC, McD, Pizza, Uncle Lim, etc.), Carrefour's food court, Naina. these places price quotations minimum RM5, though i never see any lunch at that price, or lower.
Now i'm thinking of 'bawa bekal' (in english, what aaa? bring meal?), oh yeah, bringing a lunch box. yep, just the box, and stopping and the makcik2 selling breakfast berlauk, pack for lunch.

Code Memo
being a user of Sony Ericsson handphone, i'm utilising the "Code Memo" function to secure some important data. the 'note' comes with password so no one can access it without the right password. as u can guess, my password were rejected. i don't know any other password. did i change it? huh

MIA induction
just recently, after about 5 years working experience, i finally applying to become a member of MIA- Malaysian Institute of Accountants. for those of you who haven't apply for it, but entitled (>3 years experience in related fields, Bachelor Degree account in specified University), u can do so. now, no more the need for Commissioner for Oath sign (<== main reason i didn't submit earlier). problem is, i unable to access the online Induction Course. i've completed parts of it, urmm...40% maybe, now when i try to access, it says "enrollment not open for now".

Cavenzi
i don't mind promoting Cavenzi's sales here. its worth to buy furnitures, at least for someone so poor like me. last Monday they delivered my furnitures, charged rm80, wrapped in plastic. when i back home, i unwrapped, and arrange. and noticed some damaged on the tv cabinet. hm... the salesperson said, this item got no warranty because its display unit. but after the delivery, cavenzi's office called, telling if there's something to complain, call the service dept. well, thats 1 thing KIV. huhu...so many thing to do lor...(believing 'no warranty' statement by the salesperson, i didn't put my hope up high... i can simply use black tape to seal the 'crack').

the worst!
some important docs are misplace. + the HSBC's online device. errr, the device not so important. HSBC have 2 level security/password. the device is an optional login for certain transaction. i can report and ask for the new device, but the will charge me for the device quite sum of money. don't need, nevermind. However, 2 most important docs gone missing, housing purchase docs, i.e. S&P & mortgage loan. make 2 things difficult and through the never... a- KWSP monthly deduction, b-company's interest subsidy. lawyers seem reluctant to help. well they've paid their dues, sucking me dry, well ...

"hello, i hope u (lawyers berkenaan) have a GOOD DAY!" 

p/s: all the reason is...money. dem. i really should go to umrah lor...
