Journey to Bali



Bali . The Paradise Island . I always heard people said how enjoyable and happy to be in Bali . Well , last month i went there , and it was my first time there with no idea of what i'll be facing :P
So i will try to share some of my thoughts and tips in BALI .......... ( sharing my 1st time experience ) :P




I flew there by AirAsia .... Flight starts around 9am plus ...
and was lucky to be able to capture this volcano during the flight ! :D

Reached there around 1pm and i gotta wait in line for more than 1hour just to get my STAMP into the country ! sigh ~ ( who say only malaysia's government officer do things slowly ?! )

Once getting out of the airport , 1st thing we do was , CHECK IN .
We stay at Tanaya Breakfast and Bed , located at Legian .
Since we are newcomer and tak tau go there , CAB is our only resort . There is a "TAKSI" counter just after we exit the airport and it cost us Rupee 55,000 to reach our place ( it got a fixed rates for every different location )



Long stories cut short , this is our room , Superior Double Bed which cost us USD$ 39 a night
Quite nice , and comfortable .




The washroom




And bathroom




Our 32"inch LCD mounted on the wall

The next thing we do right after we settle down , LUNCH !!!!!
seriously hungry ... as we only had a light old town food for breakfast ..... and the flight took around 3 hours plus .




So we randomly find a shop to eat .
I forget to get the name , but it was not so tasty .




Egg egg something with satay !


Then we proceed with our walk to Kuta Beach ( which located around 500M from our hotel )




Kuta Beach
Mostly western tourist around this area
not to mention alot of surfer surfing too







Nice and hot sun













Ok , after Kuta beach , we took a "Taksi" to the Famous Dreamland Beach !
( Pssttt .... Blue Bird "taksi" { light blue colour with the pigeon sign } is the recommended "taksi" to get in Bali as from what my hotel reception said " bagus taksi , blue bird , follow meter" )




Me in the cab

Before entering the "gate" of the Dreamland , you need to past the security check which got us nervous abit as the security check for something in serious manner ( they look like looking for bomb or something ) using a stick with mirror to see under the car and car trunk as well . Makes me feel like " wahh ... here been bomb before or what ohhh ?!"
Well , i guess its for safety measure as the place was one of the popular place in Bali !




Wondering if the water is part of the river or part of the sea !?!




The walk before reaching the beach !







Jeng jeng jeng , here is the famous Dreamland Beach .
Alot of local selling sarong , caps , shirts and so on ....







The wave here is alot bigger than the Kuta Beach side ....




The beach is really nice




























The Lifeguard Tower




Alot of dogs there , and most of them look like "HOT DOG"
Long long and cute cute one !




Get what i mean ?!





After staying there for 30minutes or so to take picture and walk around the beach , its time to proceed to our next destination .




On the way walking back to our cab ( the same cab and we hired him to wait for us as its hard to get cab there ) , something catch our attention !!!! food !!!




Satay booth .... and it's special booth which i don't think its something you can simply get in malaysia




Satay Babi ! haha .... now you get what i mean ?!




It cost us Rupee 10K for 8 sticks of satay babi along with some nasi pulut ! and the satay is unexpectedly TASTY and SPICY ! NICE!!!!!!!!!! ( sigh , wish can taste somemore now )
If you happened to be there , and you are non-muslim , you must try try this Satay Babi !

Well , the Babi is only for our snack and now its time for Dinner ! LOL
The "Taksi Driver" bring us to so call "sini sedap" seafood restaurant !




Blue Marlin Seafood at Jimbaran !
( Actually there is alot other different restaurant all around Jimbaran Beach so , you can always select or try others )




Here is a part of the menu




Well , it suppose to be a romantic dinner .... but due to the weather conditions , everyone all along Jimbaran Beach were unable to watch the sunset ( Big Sigh )







Don't mistaken by the flowers on my ears , it was given to me by the waitress when i walk in as a welcome sign / gift




Its a romantic candle dinner with sea view




We got our free Crab Soup ( which taste like pepper soup more )




The coconut ( with taste like Coconut add on water = Tastless )




Someone selling corn on the beach !







After around 20 minutes of waiting , our dinner is finally here !




This is the SQUID ( Cumi-Cumi )
RP 190,000 / KG ( we ordered 500Gram )




Kangkung Plecing ( Included with the meal )




Life Prawn
RP 260,000 / KG ( Ordered 300Gram )




They provide local dance and performance throughout the dinner
( Barong dance or something )







This is the kitchen type




HOT !

We take the restaurant car back to our hotel after dinner ( which cost us another RP 50,000 )
And then walk around Kuta / Legian street , and grab some drinks before going back '




Their local famous beer "Bintang" and 100plus taste alike's drink "Pocari Sweat"


Here is some summary and tips on 1st day at Bali :
RM 0.0362 = RP 100 ( ours RM 0.0387 as we change in LCCT on 30th May 2010 )
Rupee i get on hand thru the trip :
Coins = RP 100 RP 500
Bill = RP 1000 , RP 2000 , RP 5000 , RP 10,000 RP 20,000 , RP 50,000 and RP 100,000
Renting a car / a bike or driver is better than taking "Taksi"
( as it cost us RP 55000 from Airport to hotel , RP 100,000 from Kuta to Dreamland , addition RP 30,000 / hour waiting at Dreamland , around RP 50,000 from Dreamland to Jimbaran Seafood and finally RP 50,000 From Jimbaran to Legian / Kuta )
IMPORTANT : YOU CAN ASK FOR DISCOUNT or CHEAPER PRICE FOR MOST OF THE THINGS !!!!!!




And i shall end this posting by shouting ........
I AM A MILLIONAIRE IN BALI !!!!!!!!!!
LOL

Good night everyone , please wait for our day 2 and day 3 posting :D



Please Nang me if you think my posting is helpful or interesting :D

CRUEL ! ( Tidak mahu beri pemadam api mangsa hangus terkorban )



This is the picture of the remaining Myvi .
This is a news which is shared all around facebook . I copied from KOMUNITI KINI and to share with everyone about how cruel and stupid people can be in this world .

CHERAS – Satu kemalangan berlaku di lebuhraya Cheras yang melibatkan tiga buah kenderaan iaitu lori sayur, Perodua Myvi, dan Toyota Vios hingga menyebabkan satu nyawa mati terbakar kira-kira jam tiga pagi tadi.

Seorang saksi kejadian, Teo Chai Yong, 31, yang berada di kawasan kejadian berkata, “pada mulanya saya melihat sebuah Toyota Vios terbabas di bahu jalan seterusnya kelihatan sebuah Perodua Myvi yang remuk tersepit dengan sebuah lori sayur”.

Teo berhenti seketika apabila mendengar suara seorang perempuan menjerit meminta tolong.

Mengulas lebih lanjut, ketika itu Teo melihat api di bahagian enjin kereta mula marak, dengan sepantas kilat dia bergegas membuat panggilan polis, bomba dan juga ambulans.

Teo bergegas berkejaran ke stesen petrol berhampiran yang jaraknya tidak sampai 500meter dari tempat kejadian.

Jelasnya lagi, Teo meminta pertolongan daripada pekerja di stesen petrol untuk menggunakan pemadam api bagi menyelamatkan mangsa tersebut.

Bagaimanapun, permintaannya tidak dipedulikan oleh staf tersebut.

“Pihak pengurusan tidak membenarkan pemadam api tersebut dipinjam oleh orang awam”, kata staf tersebut.

“Saya sanggup membuat jaminan dengan meletakkan kad pengenalan di stesen tersebut semata-mata untuk menaruh kepercayaan namun masih tidak diendahkan oleh staf tersebut”, ujar Teo ketika dihubungi Komunitikini.

Teo mula berang kerana tidak mendapat kerjasama oleh pihak mereka kerana ia melibatkan nyawa dan mengugut staf tersebut jikalau si mangsa mati, staf tersebut adalah pembunuh.

Tambahan pula, ketika Teo merayu meminta pertolongan dia sedang membuat panggilan polis, malah pihak polis agak terkejut mendengar mengapa Teo merayu-rayu meminta pemadam api.

Sebaliknya, staf tersebut mengugut untuk melaporkan hal demikian kepada pihak pengurus dan juga polis.

Teo tidak melengahkan masanya dan dia terus kembali ke tempat kejadian, malangnya kereta tersebut sudah hangus dan mangsa itu turut mati terbakar.

Apa yang menyedihkan Teo, pihak polis turut berkata jikalau dapat menggunakan pemadam api dari stesen petrol tersebut kemungkinan nyawa tersebut dapat diselamatkan.

Teo berkata, hatinya sungguh terkilan kerana tidak dapat menyelamatkan satu nyawa malah dia sangat marah dengan sikap staf di stesen petrol tersebut.

Pihak bomba mengenal pasti seorang wanita hangus mati dijilat api dan tidak dapat dikenal pasti empunya tuan badan kerana semua fail penting juga turut tidak dapat diselamatkan.

Menurut laporan pihak bomba, kemalangan tersebut melibatkan seorang terkorban, dua orang cedera parah dan seorang lagi selamat.

Pegawai perhubungan BHP, Abdul Kaiyum berkata saksi terbabit dalam keadaan tidak tenang malah caranya sangat mendesak.

“Situasi tengah malam juga menyebabkan pekerjanya agak berhati-hati ekoran terdapat banyak kes yang telah berlaku di stesen berikut”, katanya ketika dihubungi Komunitikini.

Namun yang demikian tidak salah kalau hal ini dirunding dengan penyelia pada waktu itu.

Pihak BHP akan membuat sidang media berkenaan hal ini pada Isnin akan datang iaitu 7Jun,2010.

AND this is the notes i found in Facebook ;

FUCK BHP!!!!! FUCK BHP!!! why? let me tell you!!

this morning approx 3.20am, at Cheras Tmn Pertama roundabout,

saw a freak accident, involving a Vios, Myvi and a Lorry.

im one the first badge who arrive, mean it just happen maybe seconds ago.

Vios believe to be turtle and badly damaged. When im passing by the vios, rear passenger started to pull out the front driver and front passenger.

then when i pass the Myvi, the car was totally sardine. Heard one girl was yelling cos piined inside. I stop my car then run towards the myvi to offer a hand while calling 999 emergency line to request for ambulance and bomba.

then saw fire spark at the engine bay of myvi. while still on the phone with emergency line to provide more details, i run back to my car and drive to BHP station which is just less than 500m away from the scene.

then i request for the fire extingusher from the attendant which is kept inside. There was 4 extingusher on the ground. But the attendant refuse to pass to me.

the BHP attendant claimed dat the door cant be open.

then i shout at him, i need it! i want it! someone is pinned inside the car and its started to burn!

then the BHP attendant keep repeating he kenot borrow and open the door.

then i was like WTF! if ur kiosk is burning can u come out? then he replied yes.

then he still say he kenot open the door. Then he say his boss wont allowed to borrow. WTF!!!

then i started to amuk kicking the kiosk and punching the glass of the kiosk.

i even throw my IC to him say that if im dun return u report police.

i saw i borrow.. if i use it i will pay for it. then he keep on just smile at me.

then he ask another partner to come out. Then i start shouting and yelling at them with bad words saying dat if the girl dies you two are the murderer.

then the 2nd BHP attendant shout back at me.

i demand for their names, i told them i would complain bout them,

then the 2nd attendant copy down my number plate and said that all my acts been recorded on CCTV and he gonna report to police tumoro. I challenged him.

then i drove off back to the scene.. the car was totally burning and the poor girl was burn alive inside.

then i spoke to the Bomba and PDRM how many casualties was inside. they told me one girl.

Then i spoke to PDRM about the incident happen in BHP.. then the policemen also scold with anger WTF with them.. if i could get the fire extingushier.. the girl might be saved.

then the Policemen ask me to go police station to report a cover about the BHP, and he assured me that the stupid BHP wont get to report on me.

Personally i would like to ask, how much does 4 fire extingusher cost? isit more expensive than a life?

would like to ask the BHP petrol station's boss! u cant afford to lose 4 fire extingusher then u better closed down your station!!!! Fuck you boss!!!!

and this is to BHP MALAYSIA!! seens your procedure to keep all safety gadget inside the kiosk... if anything happen during refueling... is your attendant gonna open the door to help? seens he claimed that the door cant be open after hours??

FUCK YOU BHP!!! FUCK YOU!!!

i personally from now on will boycott BHP... i dont know how about you all!!!

gonna give BHP HQ a call tumoro... see what the fuck will they say about this kind of safety measurement they have!!!!!


for the two BHP attendant!!! you are the murderer!!!!!


Seriously , if this is true as the guy claimed .... the attendance is not human at all .

What do you all think bout this ?!
