The Story of Mine

KRS & WWSG
of
SMK BUD (4)

24th - 27th May '08

Yeap as the title says, the scouts and krs went for yet another camp. This time a liltle different as it was held further away. Pulau Pangkor it is. Oh and this is the first time scouts and krs had a joint camp. They expected it to be rejected as the camp did not include other uniform units but God was with them, Pn. Zubaidah agreed to it just so quickly and then everything started rolling.

To our surprise, she also added a line which was a topic for us - "Ok, saya akan pergi juga". Haha was this good or bad news we started to debate. Everything was in a hurry as exams were coming closer as well. Planning and arrangements were also done during the exam period by the AJKs headed by Ming Hong (Scouts) and Choong Hern (KRS) who are somehow "related".

My involvement in this was just a tiny bit as all i did was made a few calls enquiring about the campsite for them. Then after, they took over and arranged everything from the beginning till the end. I believe it was easy for them either as all the experiences they had was put into practice. Unlike other units, for example, *cough* PBSM *cough*. No offence yea Su Kheng! Just that you all were not fortunate?

Initially I was pondering whether to join them at this camp in Pulau Pangkor. It wasn't an easy decision as there were many obstacles that seem to not allow me to attend this camp. I had to really give a some amount of thoughts before making a decision that I'll regret. It was day and night thinking for me and I ended up putting everything else aside and get prepared for an adventure to Pulau Pangkor.

Firstly, I need to know how to get there! It was a problem, so I heard of a friend saying that it's easy as there are express busses going there and so I decided to find out more about it. Internet these days save us sooooo much time don't you agree? So google it was and I found out soooo much! I could go to Lumut by express coach and then transfer to Pulau Pangkor by ferry. Simple? No... The trick was the bus terminal is located at Puduraya and I'll have to find my way there to buy my tickets so that I'd have a place to Lumut on Saturday(24th) morning. I couldn't just go there that morning and take the risk right? So more searching it was.

Then I found out that there's one company that has e-ticketing service. Meaning I do not only need to get my tickets at Puduraya but it can be get elsewhere too. Oh, the express bus which I decided to take is Transnasional. I went through its website and found out their e-ticketing service is available at

Petronas Stations

Not all though. The nearest I could find is the one in Damansara Jaya (near KDU). So one afternoon I took a trip there and bought my tickets. Was so glad there were still seats available. I bought the earliest one so that can almost meet up with the big group and not be too late.
