A Merdeka note

Rumah Rehat Warisan would like to thank all customers for the overwhelming response. We also apologise for the insufficient room during the UMT Convocation this month. We would like to advise all to make the booking very early to avoid disappointment. We hope to see you again in Teluk Ketapang.

Thank you.

Kuala Terengganu's new attraction

This is a new building in Kuala Terengganu. It is located next to the famous Pasar Kedai Payang. Will be an attraction to tourists when it is opened.

Anis - July 2007

Check out the local magazine, Anis this coming July 2007. Warisan Homestay is featured in that issue. Among the focus are 'Teroka kampung dalam bandar' (Discover village in a township), 'Waris Tukang Batik' (Batik-maker successor), Rumah rehat Warisan, 'Tukang jahit speaking Inggeris' (A tailor who speaks English) and 'ICT yang ori' (The original ICT).

Anis is a good reading material for Malaysian families. Visit http://www.galeriilmu.com.my for more info of the magazine.

Borreh House

I'm back with a good news! Another place for you to stay when you are in Kuala Terengganu is undergoing a renovation.

It's a big house that can accomodate 10-15 person at one time. Inside, there are 3 rooms and a bathroom. Infront of the house there's a well which you can use for bathing too. The house is made of wood and I will post a new picture when the renovation is complete. You can rent either individual room or the whole house. For more information, you can call Kak Lah at 017-9151424 (add +6 if you call from outside Malaysia).

Warisan Homestay, K.Terengganu

Today, I will bring you to Warisan Homestay. It is conveniently located in Teluk Ketapang Homestay Village, Kuala Terengganu in Terengganu. Airport is only 5 minutes away and about 2km to the beach. There are afternoon hawkers selling nice foods at the beach. You can get a taste of many local afternoon foods which includes fish, cuttlefish, coconut drink etc. In the morning, there's a stall (Bakar's foodstall) where you can get your breakfast. But beware, locals start their days early so you might not get your 'nasi lemak' (rice) after 8:30am. For muslims, the nearest Surau is about half a kilometer away. About 1km, there will be Terengganu Sports Complex and a driving school which also offers Go-Kart circuit. To go to the town, Kuala Terengganu, you can either drive about 10km (about 10 minutes) or, take a boat (locally called penambang) and you will arrive at Pasar Kedai Payang - the main market.

About the homestay. There are 2 types of package: homestay and chalet. If you opt for chalet, the charge is per room (up to 4 person) per day. If you opt for homestay, the charge is per person. But the owner only take up to 4 person at one time. With homestay, you will be given a schedule of activities. I will write about the homestay package later.

Anybody interested? Just dial 017-9073976 (En Bakar) or 019-9756539 (Cikgu Hj Ismail) to get more information.

It's worth it!

MIHAS 2007

Well, it was a busy weekend. I went to visit the Malaysian International Halal Showcase 2007 in KL Convention Centre. The trade fair began on 9th May but open to public on 12th and 13th May. On Saturday, we arrived at 10:00am to avoid busy traffic and crowd. It was so good to see more products from kampong (village) being showcased in such an international event. Malaysian from all walks of life came to see the event, but I saw many visitors were upset with the compulsory registration. The public came to learn more about Halal products and their special offers. They are not interested to do big business with the exhibitors. They want to buy the food and drinks. So what the heck that they need to register with their phone numbers and address?

Welcome to my blog

As this is my first post, I would like to welcome anybody who are reading this. My blog will talk about homestay vacations, chalets, nice places to visit plus other interesting things about vacation - here in Malaysia.

Malaysia is a small country in South East Asia. Her neighbours are Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia and Brunei. Here, the timezone is GMT+8:00, with 12 hours day and 12 hours night. No long nights or days that you need to worry.

Malaysia has many interesting places to visit. Also, many cultures to live with. Experience the homestay vacation in Malaysia. Have a good day!
