However, the farthest that I have been is Nepal, the sixth foreign countries that I've visited beside Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam and Cambodia. Due to tight budget, I usually travel by backpacking. I have the habit to write down my experience for each trips.http://yming33travel.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com (Yoke Ming)Blogger14125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21342290.post-116092102306713664Sun, 15 Oct 2006 13:54:00 +00002013-10-21T23:02:08.204+08:00 I was waiting for Airasia to fly to Cambodia, after reading the article from newspaper regarding the announcement of landing permit obtained by the airlines recently, so that it could cut down my budget. However, after few weeks of waiting and it was getting closer to our travel schedule, a colleague of mine advised me to look for other airlines, such as Tiger Airways.

It was really the good news that Air Asia is flying to Bali starting middle of this year.

Two years later, I returned by flight. I have no idea as why I visit Thailand again, and not some other places. As I just need a holiday right after my semester final examinations, and also suggested by my ex-colleague, I planned to visit Ayutthaya and Chiang Mai besides Bangkok for this trip.

I went for 8 trips last year that almost everybody jealous about me. This time I don't think I can break the record, as I have just started my Master Degree (Applied Statistics) with University of Malaya since June this year.

I was the first person who asking for the purchase form entitled for the special rates. However, the response was very poor and there was only one colleague that following me.

A close friend of mine asked me to join their group going to Redang Island as his sister having free stay coupons at Berjaya Redang Beach Resort, the only 5-star resort on that island. We only had to pay the transportation and meals. I had heard a lot about the beauty of this resort especially its private beach. http://yming33travel.blogspot.com/2003/11/redang-island-15-18-august-2003.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Yoke Ming)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21342290.post-113794337080440045Sat, 08 Nov 2003 13:58:00 +00002013-10-16T16:09:29.298+08:00I had heard about this island last year, I had even seen the pictures on the Internet. I did try to plan for a trip there, however due to poor response, I couldn't make it. Now, ex-colleague of mine asking me whether to join her group for a 3 days / 2 nights package with fullboard meals and return boat transfer, quite reasonably cheap. Without any further thought, I paid her the money.

This is the first trip that I went alone. It was really another wonderful trip I ever had this year. As compared to Redang Island, where I went two months ago, Perhentian Islands have the most beautiful marine life with lots of fish and corals (more http://yming33travel.blogspot.com/2002/10/perhentian-islands-5-10-october-2002.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Yoke Ming)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21342290.post-113802509207165796Sun, 18 Aug 2002 22:51:00 +00002013-10-16T15:36:25.678+08:00Hello there, guess where I've been last week? Surprisingly, I was giving an assignment to join a 3D/2N inspection trip to Redang Island hosted by Redang Beach Resort. I was only informed three days before the departure date, quite rush but I was so excited – at least a break from the routine, busy and boring works in the office.

The 3 days / 2 nights trip was rather too short. However, for an eye-opener to the oldest rainforest and a break from the office routine, it would be just enough.We were gathered at the side entrance of Hotel Istana on 28/04/02 Sunday morning at 7.45am.
