My Visit to Batu Niah Town @ Miri

After my visit to Bekenu, then my parent and I drive another 15 mins to another town called Niah. My last visit to the Niah town is here. Where I explorer the famous Niah Cave.

Upon enter the Niah town, we are welcome by this magnificent view in front of us. The cliff wall of the Niah town.



My 2nd visit to this place, and this time I roam around the town area and see what they have there.



A Chinese school, is the SJKC Chee Mung. This might be a primary school, I also study in a Chinese primary school. And I learn how to write and read in Chinese there. But after goes to secondary school, no teacher available to teach Chinese, so we have no more changes to learn Chinese again.



Most of the small town in Sarawak, there will be a river. Is the same as Niah here, and they also put in a sign "A danger sign" of the alligator!!!!



Look at the static and muddy water here, you dare to swim in this place?

Cheers,

My Visit to the small town called Bekenu @ Miri

I visited a small town called the Bekenu Town, so this place is a 30 min drive from Miri. This town is under the Subis District Council. And as you can see the picture here, one of the income source is from oil palm plantation.

Upon entering the town, you can see a few row of newly develop shop lots. And most of them are operate by the Chinese people. Yes, the Barisan National are quite active here, cause I can see a lot of flags of the BN, and the PBB (Persaka Bumiputera Bersatu) in English is the United Traditional Bumiputera Party.

So opposition team, common where are you guys!!! do more roadshow in places like this, they need to know the truth about our country!!!

 

On the second half of the town, is where the old shop lots are. Most of them still remain their old appearance.

  

Most of them are also operate by the Chinese people here, and small town like this, they have 4 motor bike shops. The business is good, cause most of them are using motorcycle.

 

A place for the people here to hangout during their free time. The Bekenu esplanade.

 

And I also visited the marker, as it is just beside the Bekenu esplanade. The seafood here looks very fresh, from all the small town that I visited, I notice they have fresh sea product. And the price is rather cheap to compare with the one we have in the big cities.



A few Malay stalls are selling all this fried kuih, which I can't resist not to eat them. I bough a lot of this kuih.



This is made from fish, and it taste very nice. with 1 buck you can get 5 of those, if eat with the chili sauce it tastes even better. 

A traditional Chinese temple at the very back of the town area. We went in and visited the place.
I'll put up more photos in my next post, cause I also visited the Bekenu beach, and also Batu Niah town.

Cheers,

Wilson

I really like the kuih :)

How to make apps go full screen in Samsung Galaxy Tablet 10.1

I install a few Chinese apps in my galaxy tab, and most of the apps are not build for tablet size android platform. So when running the apps, it will not go full screen.

If you have this problem too, I recommend you use the following software, as it can solve this issue. And is called "Spare Part", try to search it in the Google Play market. The link is here <-----
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidapps.spare_parts&hl=en

After you installed it, this application will force all apps to use full screen on your tablet. But to get the app to work you require to do a few steps, this is just a one time configuration. The app take several reboots to be properly configured, but that’s a one time ordeal. JKK Mobile, advises these steps:

1. Download Spare Parts from Android Market and go through the instlalation process, which should begin automatically after the app has been downloaded.
2. Launch the app by opening it. Scroll to “Compability Mode.” JKK Mobile advises to tap on the check box, and then untap it again.
3. Then reboot the Galaxy tab.
4. Go back into Spare Parts after reboot and go to “Comptability Mode” again and tap it again and then reboot.
5. After reboot, your apps should be in full screen.

Your apps will be full screen like this....FULL SCREEN finally....

Hope you find this usefull,

Cheers,

Serian Highest Mount, Panorama View

This is the panorama shoot I took when I was at the summit of the highest mount at Serian, Kuching. I follow two of my friends go to that place, is behind the Serian town. On top of the summit, there are three telco towers, which is the Celcom, DiGi, and Maxis telco towers.

The hight of the mount is 776 meter above sea level, and when I'm on top, the weather are slightly cozy (not as cold at like in Kota Kinabalu Mount, or Genting Highland). But is better than nothing. The way up are fully covered by tarmac, so if you have a 4 wheel drive, it will be easy for you to drive up, but the view is worth it. If you have time, you may also picnic there, with the splendid view at your back. The Beauty of Sarawak.



Cheers,

My mobile display "Hotlink Zone", but when I browse the web, is not fast at all !!!

Mount Kinabalu Morning View from Far Far Away....

30 Nov 2011. It was 6.10am in the morning, as my friend and I have to catch our morning flight back to Kuching. On our way from the Kinabalu Park to the Kota Kinabalu Town. While on our way downhill, mount Kinabalu slowly unveil its veil. My friend is kind enough to stop his car and let me capture this special moment.

Flowers Photography @ Kundasan, Kinabalu Park, and the Nabalu Town of Kota Kinabalu Sabah.

I went to visit Kota Kinabalu on Nov 2011, for a charity activity. And after the programs ends, I called up my friend to drive my other friends to the hilly part of Kota Kinabalu, which is to the Kundasan area, where the Mount Kinabalu is, where they have cozy weather, pretty local girls, beautiful flowers, desa cow farm, strawberries farm, tea garden, hot spring, mushroom plantation, fogging roads, budget home stay, luxurious hotel, and more!!!

I'm really happy that after one year I'm able to come back here again for another visit, so as usual, all the pretty flowers will be one of my photography topic. So my dear reader, hope you like my photos.

Cheers,
Wilson
I so wanna stay at Kundasan, Sabah forever....

The Big Pirate Ship X-Mas Theme at One Borneo, Kota Kinabalu

Christmas Theme 2010 @ One Borneo Shopping Mall, Sabah

DM trip to the Kota Kinabalu 2011

I went for a 4 days 3 night trip to Kota Kinabalu, KK is one of my favourite place to visit, especially the Kundasan area there they have the cozy weather, and the Mount Kota Kinabalu. OMG, cozy weather here I come.... oh wait, I'm here for the Charity Ride thingy, so have to settle everything first before enjoying.

Went to a house warming party, is my friend's cousin house. He did very well in KK, and bought a half million house to stay in. Is a 3 stories house, the outer looks is good, but they really need to put more effort on the interior. Or hire an interior designer to do the design for them.

Is time to check in to our hotel, I'm staying at the Sabah Oriental Hotel (formerly knowns at Beverly Hotel). There is a group of Filipino band, and the two singer can sing very well (and very sexy too).

This is how the lobby looks like, there is a water fountain just surrounding the stairways (and the x-mas tree), and they have lots of real tortoise swimming around the fountain.

After we checked in, we left our luggage in the hotel room. I called up my friend to pick us up, and tour us around the KK town. This is the night view from the Singnal Hill Observation Pavilion at Sabah.

We went to the Sutera Harbour Resort, it is a huge resort. I visited the place for quite a few time, and it was really huge, and pretty.

One of the best place to be when your at Kota Kinabalu. They have very nice restaurant there, and the ambient are super cool.

There is a dockyard where people with their own yacht can dock em here. There are more than 20 yacht here. Hope I can go for a ride on these yacht one day.

Cheers,

Wilson

Night view at the Sutera Harbour is pretty...

2 Days Bintulu Trip

Each time I only get to transit at the Bintulu airport, but this time is my first time to visit the Bintulu Town. I follow my friends at the charity society here for a short 2 days 1 night trip, and to attend a charity dinner. Bintulu is famous for the oil and gas industry here, and it also the only division which has the flight academic school here. So who wants to be a pilot, they can come here to learn to fly. When we reach Bintulu, it was meeting the whole day. I don't have any time to actually go around the Bintulu town, and took photo :( My friend bring us to a restaurant, and ordered a famous dish. Is the fish, they cook it by warp the fish with aluminium foil, and put lots of salt inside, and steam it. That restaurant is the only one who can make such dish, and is very tasty (according to my friend). All the fish are kept inside a fish tank, and there are a lot of fishes in that tank. I feel so pity for the fish, waiting to be slaughter, and be eaten by people just to satisfy people hunger. I still eat meat, but I just felt very sorry for the fish to watch the fish die like this. Waiting for people to pick which one is the fresh one, and eat it.... so I skip that dish, and let my friends eat my portion. By the time the meeting finish, it was very late, and my friend did bring us to roam around the Bintulu Town one round, so I quickly take this opportunity to take some pictures. Here is me at the Chinese Temple. That night, most of my friends had stomach ache. I'm the one who is ok, I'm been thinking, is it the fish... hm... cheers, Wilson
