KL Sentral Information

Stesen Sentral, Malaysia’s largest transit hub, is Kuala Lumpur’s integrated rail transportation centre, offering global connectivity and seamlessly linking all urban and suburban residential, commercial and industrial areas. It is also a direct link to Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Putrajaya (the Federal Government Administrative Centre), Cyberjaya and key areas within the Multimedia Super Corridor. Such amazing connectivity has been established through direct access to six rail systems and links to major highways.  As an international business address of choice, Kuala Lumpur Sentral has gained momentum, with resident as well as visiting population growing exponentially. Originally, this self-sustained city-within-a-city has been planned around Malaysia’s largest transportation hub Stesen Sentral to encourage use of public transportation as well as to reduce carbon foot-print, which in turn has significantly reduced traffic movement within Kuala Lumpur Sentral serving its green agenda. However, with the growing population, Kuala Lumpur Sentral continues to cater to specific needs of its tenants, residents as well as other stakeholders especially to enhance the parking facilities and increase provision for more. For better convenience and ease of travelers, the parking spaces will be nearly doubled in the next 3 to 5 years. Currently, the total parking facilities under construction in commercial, residential, lifestyle components number at 9,354, which are due to be completed latest by 2012. Additionally, approximately 3000 parking lots will be provisioned when planning for future projects in Kuala Lumpur Sentral, targeted for completion in 2016. Nonetheless, we continue to encourage visitors to Kuala Lumpur Sentral to make use of the six rail networks and public transport towards a greener and less polluted Malaysia.

Perhentian Island, Terengganu

Perhentian Island, Kuala Terengganu. (Pulau Perhentian)


Perhentian Island well known as a beautiful and a good place for relaxing. There is two main islands, Perhentian Besar (Big Perhentian) and Perhentian  Kecil (Small Perhentian). 
Perhentian Kecil attracts more travellers, youngsters as it has cheaper accommodation, beach party every night with fire chain entertaiment, nice place for snokelling and diving too.While Besar is a little bit more expensive and caters more to families and those who want to avoid the backpacker party scene.


I went to Perhentian Kecil with a few friends. From Kuala Lumpur we took a night bus at 10pm from Hentian Putra and it took us 7.5 hours journey to Kuala Besut (jetty). Bus ticket will cost RM40 one way. We reached Kuala Besut at nearly 6am. From Kuala Besut, we took a speedboat to the island. Journey to the islands takes about 30 to 45 minutes by speed boat. There are a number of boat operators in Kuala Besut offering boat services to Perhentian Island. The return boat ticket cost RM 60.00 per person for speed boat. Once reached the island, we have to take 'water taxi' that cost us RM3.

Kuching, Sarawak

Kuching

Kuching  is the capital and most populous city of the East Malaysian state of Sarawak. 

Kuching's Waterfront is a 900 meter long esplanade with landscaped park areas and eateries.
There are many heritage buildings along the way including the Square Tower and the Sarawak Steamship Company building. As you stand by the railing looking downwards at the Sarawak River below, you can see the ferry sampans called tambang going back and forth bringing commuters across the river. It is a popular place for locals and foreigners. A lovely area for walking, or just sitting enjoying the view and people watching. If you can venture out at night, it is lit up, as well as the streets, and the food vendors come and set up their stalls selling satay or malay food and other handicraft. Just a note, the price is not cheap.
