Trip coverage: GENTING HIGHLANDS

Participants: Me, Cris, Fel, Khiong and Tathui.

GENTING….most malaysian know it, you know it, I know it. It sits atop Ulu Kali hill(no I did not made up the name of the hill), it is paradise for theme park enthusiast and heaven for gamblers. I like it not because of the theme park nor do I like to gamble (it’s true it’s true), I like the place because of its cold climate, and its cool breeze. So that I can put my right leg on a rock, my both hands in my pocket, my eyes looking dreamy and straight ahead, with the famous titanic song playing at the back and the cold breeze brush through my hair, suddenly I feel like kate winslet.
Anyways, I stopped by GENTING after my convocation ceremony few weeks ago. The last time I went to GENTING was November 2003, long long time ago. Gosh, how time flies, last time we went up there using cable car, well I’m not really a big fan of cable cars after hearing so many tales of the whole cable car falling off the cable and plunge down to the forest. So this time, we went up using car instead, yes taxi to be exact. But damn, it is far scarier than using a cable car, the taxi driver must have watched “Initial D the movie” lately, attacking the sharp corner, going very fast up to the resort and if something goes wrong, equally fast up to heaven.
Lets make it more fun for this blog, I’m gonna post some pictures of the trip, and you try to guess what is wrong with all the pictures. Answers will be revealed at the end of the blog.


sorry for the low quality of the pics, that’s tathui on the far left, khiong’s “normal” friend.

GENTING was packed and loaded with people, “people mountain people sea”, young people, old people, children, Asians, Arabians, Caucasians, Indians, all also got.


Burger king burgers are the best


yes I like burger king


eating KFC chicken in Burger king restaurant!! How dare you, patutla wanna cover your face

After lunch in Burger king, we went out for a walk, me being the photographer, I try to take ask many pictures of khiong and his “normal” friend tathui. Being the very shy couple “normal” friends, they refuse to let me take their photos, makes me feel like I am paparazzi. But I manage to snap some shots still…hehe


don’t shy shy ler

When night time falls, that’s when the magic begins, we decided to hit the casino, yes bring me some money!!!


coming coming, lai liaw lai liaw



entrance to casino, pathway to wealth or poverty?

I lost like 20 bucks on slot machine and I was done. Gambling is just not my thing, never really like it anyways. Khiong walked out 70 bucks richer and he’s a happy man.

yes…it’s mine…my precious…my 70 bucks

As for cris, he lost terribly, as we say in mandarin, “lost until take off pants”, all done and deal in a single night, he went back to the hotel room “ngam sap sap, tau tap tap” literally meaning “eye wet wet, head drop drop”.

after lose so much money, of course eat Maggie cup noodle lo..

Perhaps cris should have sit on the luckies chair in the world before he goes in the casiono, that might bring him luck.

no bluff, I just sat on the luckies chair in the world

Our hotel room in 1st world

wahhh no more shy shy worr

all set and ready to go…pic taken before we leave genting

foggy background

our F1 taxi driver in action again…

On our way down from the resort was even scarier, our sleepy F1 taxi driver was really one of a kind. He almost fall asleep while on the wheel, gosh I almost piss my pants when cris said our taxi driver is sleeping, we got very scared and quickly woke up our half sleeping-F1-taxi-driver I kick the old man out of his taxi and drove to KL myself.

wah wah wah….watch out watch out!!!

After some hard praying, we reach KL still in 1 piece, Thank You God All mighty.
