Yesterday I joined the KPA Brunei to Kampong Menunggol climbing the Bukit Batu Bujang Pahang. I was a really awesome trip I had met some new friends and exploring our Beautiful Brunei. I really surprise that we have such a nice place with historical story behind places here and it just not far away from the Bandar Seri Begawan.
7am we 25 people meet up at the Yayasan jetty there and take a water taxi to Pulau Berambang. Just 10 minutes saje and we reach there and a bus is waiting for us.
In Pulas Berambang I saw something really surprisingly which is the people there they are using motorbike with no helmet, car with no number plate, road tax and kids can use motorbike!!! Awesome lah... I feel like I going to a cowboy town. It just a few kilometer away from the town and the life style totally different there! In the kampong have one convenient store, one mosque, one primary school. Population there are around 600 to 700 peoples and their are very friendly and nice people there. They don't have gas station, clinic, workshop, or barber shop etc.... all have to come out and get it town.
In this trip we went to went to see the kampong, climb the Batu Bujang Pahang, see the Lubang Arang Batu, Batu Berpangkat Gua Kelawar Gua Batu Kapur, Telaga Puteri and go to a house have lunch with Makan Kampong Style!!
Is really siok lah.. hope one day I can go there again!!!
