Sambungan dari Long Napir Part 1. 

Meh kita menghayati menu-menu yang kitorang makan malam tu. Simple je...tapi kenyaaaannnnggg... burppp. Time kasih Uncle Nelson n wife. Korang memang terbaik!

Ikan semah masak sup terjun

Anak ikan semah crispy...beras kampung yang wangi dan menyelerakan.

Dorang bagi aku makan telur ikan semah...takut aku lari dan cari batu belah batu bertangkup

Sorang lagi baham kepala ikan...lazat katanya. aku tak minat la makan kepala ikan

             Okay...sambung story morry yang seterusnya. Tujuan kitorang datang ke Long Napir adalah untuk membuat verifikasi nelayan di kampung tersebut sehinggalah ke Kampung Bahagia yang terletak kira-kira dua jam perjalanan kaki dari kampung long napir ni. Untuk ke Kampung Bahagia .memang takda guna kereta.sebab takda jalan untuk kereta pun hanya moto je la kalau korang hebat..penduduk kat sini jangan lawan..memang expert n serasi ngn jalan dorang kalau aku sah-sah masuk gaung..asyik masuk gaung je kan....nanti aku tunjuk gambar jalan tu k.korang saba na...lupa nak cakap lak Kampung Long Napir kebanyakkannya didiami oleh masyarakat kelabit

manakala Kampung Bahagia lak didiami oleh masyarakat penan. Mesti korang wondering kan apa yang best sangat kat Kampung Long Napir ni...

             Sangat sesuai untuk kaki pancing, kaki mandi sungai, kaki berkelah dan apa-apa je la. Kat sinila tempat dorang mencari punca pendapatan. Pembeli ikan dorang selalunya cikgu-cikgu yang keje kat Sk Long Napir. 

Tetibe je ngantok...

Long Napir Part 1

TORA DATANG LAGIIIIIII             

             Setahun kemudian baru nak update blog...baik tak yah beblog, ye dak? Ada aku kesah? Ok done with mukadimah yang bukan-bukan. Kali ini aku nak share journey aku ke kawasan pedalaman Limbang lak...malas lak nak berbahasa inggeris mcm entri kat Ba'kelalan tu. kang tak siap-siap blog aku yang takda pembaca ni...ada aku kesah? nama kau esah? whatever la. saja nak merapu jap. maklumla, blog takdo pembaca ni kasi gegar sorang-sorang...

               Kali ni memaparkan kisah aku ke Long Napir. Long Napir ni terletak di ulu pedalaman Limbang. Aku kalau bukan sebab urusan keja mungkin sampai bercucu cicit pun belum tentu lagi sampai kat sini. Agak jauh (4-6 jam je pun dari bandar Limbang) pastu lak jalan bukan bertar. kena pulak masa hujan... licin...kalau aku yang driving sorang ke situ, sah-sahla masuk gaung. tak caye? tengok la gambar dibawah... kena slow bila hujan...korang bayangkan korang memandu di atas tanah merah di lereng-lereng bukit, sebelah bukit sebelah lak gaung...seriau tak? saja nak bikin thrill lattew...thrill lah sangat

Kerlingan maut driver kitorang

Pose gugurl dari staf satu ofis aku

               Korang kenal tak dengan Bruno manser...bukan Bruno Mars tau. Menurut sorang staf kitorang, di jambatan inilah tempat bruno manser dikatakan terjun semasa beliau ditangkap oleh pihak berkuasa untuk melepaskan diri...kenapa beliau begitu dikehendaki? kalau korang kenal ngn Bruna Manser sah korang tau kan...takyah cerita lah

Gayat wei...tu la pasal gamba gegaq2

Sungai kat bawah jambatan...masa ni air tak naik lau Bruno terjun masa ni sah terhantuk kat batu kat bawah tu

            Korang pernah dengar pasal ikan semah? Ha...kat Long Napir & Ba'Kelalan memang tempat yang sesuai untuk korang cari ikan tu. Dengar-dengar kata orang la ye...ikan semah di Ba'kelalan lebih lazat daripada ikan semah di Limbang...ye ke? mungkin jugak. sebab aku rasa ikan semah dari Ba'kelalan lebih manis rasanya. mungkin sebab masa tu ambik terus makan kot yang kat Long Napir ni kitorang tak dapat dari sungai long napir tu. dari peti sejuk jew...LOLs!

All the way to Ba'Kelalan

Dear readers,

Hello there again! More interesting experience to share with you of some other interesting places there available at Ba'Kelalan. But before moving further, just a brief introduction about Ba'Kelalan. Ba'Kelalan situated at Sarawak, Malaysia. Located approximately 4km from Sarawak and Kalimantan border. Ba'Kelalan can be access through Lawas via land and air. You may check with Mas Airline for the schedule because I've been told that flight to Ba'Kelalan only available at certain days. At previous post, it is more about Ba'Kelalan itself (based on my second times visit to Ba'Kelalan with not so much things to share about due to times limitation and official duty, perhaps there's more interesting things there I have not treasured yet huhu~), so now, this post is about what I've treasured all my way to Ba'Kelalan.

Long Semadoh Naseb: A place we stayed before go to Ba'Kelalan

Long Tanid: Among villages I went to

Wonderful field isn't it? Psssttt...there's something about it here!

This is what it's all about...A place where they process the salt!

So I did managed to ask our staff who are locally from this place (the one who earing the white shirt) about how the villages knew that there are salt at this place. Well, it is because cattle loves to drink the water there from the mountain not far from that hut that makes the villages wonder if there's something about that place. So they discovered the secret of this place. The salt! I forgot to take a picture of the mountain behind there with the well not far from it. My bad! This place is not far from Buduk Bui villages.

In the hut. Gosh, I've lost the other picture in this hut where we saw the prcess of creating the salt. This picture was taken when I went here for the fisrt time, and there's no one processing the salt during that day.Huhu 

Okay, so I guess that's about it for today. Got to go for now to do other important things! Will keep this blog updated soon! Bye

This is Ba'kelalan...

Dear readers,

Guess what's been on my mind lately. Travelling. This is what I really wanted to do. I came up with so many plans so many places to travel BUT I ended up with same reasons, I didn't have enough money. But if I did have money, I didn't have times. See...how easily it is to be such a failure. But being the luckiest person alive, I've been given few chances to go to quite hidden places to some people such as Ba'Kelalan for official duty.

Serene and peaceful. That was came to my mind when I first laid my feet on Ba'Kelalan land. I was hypnotized of how quite it is and the atmosphere is really relaxing. People would come and shake our hands to welcome us. All those smiles and friendly faces makes me realized how stress-free they are living there. I've been to Ba'Kelalan twice. 

Ba'Kelalan's Church

Before I went there, my colleagues warned me that I would feel very boring there. It actually depends. For me, I love it. No digital entertainment for a week. I felt so connected to the people and to the nature. Since I am Celcom user, I was not able to make a phone call at all since there is no Celcom line there, only Maxis.

Seeing is believing. I suggested this place to travelers who are tired of the noisiness of  urban life. You can reach Ba'Kelalan by two transportation mode, either by chartering or self-drive or MAS flight. There's a homestay which is not far from the airport, to spend your nights there namely Apple Lodge Homestay. You can contact them through this two number 013-2865656 or 085-435736 or you can send them email as well applelodge@borneojunglesafari.com. 

Full loaded! Motorcycle is the most popular mode of transportation there!

And by the wayyyy, no one pays me for those adverstisement. Hahaha... just want to share with you a piece of my experience going to Ba'Kelalan.

More will coming up. Stay tuned!
