Hi greeting from Indonesia here :)
I read your story about your ancestor from Java in Timothy’s blog. From what part in Java your grandpa came from?
Actually not my grandpa. My great grandpa was from Java. But I am not sure from which area he came from.
One thing I know is that I still have an uncle living in Yogjakarta. He is the cousin of my dad where his dad is my late grandmother’s brother but from a different mother. Confusing isn’t it? Haha.
I was told that he is an important person in Indonesia but I am not sure what his position is. His name is Slamet Riyanto bin Salamun.
your blog will become my “tourist guide after this..” semoga diizinkan… (^_^)
hehe. insyaAllah.. terima kasih ye sebab sudi membaca :D
welcome..terima kasih juga sbb sudi berkongsi..
Aja, Khai ni bestfriend adik abang. Dasat ni mamat ni. Lawyer tau. Haa.

Bro….thanks for the nice blog…really give me input…anyway how much cost of your backpackers to Bangkok?? Me is still in making budget…hope get an estimate cost from you…thank you…
You’re welcome bro! :) All in seminggu tu tak sampai RM 1,000.00 pun. Roughly dalam RM 800. Sebab tak naik flight. Masa kat sana naik bas, kalau tren pulak ambil yg paling murah. Satu lagi, kalau naik MRT/BTS, cuba beli tourist pass mcm Singapore pny tu. Lg jimat kalau nak byk jalan. I did not buy the pass then sbb tak tahu. Dah balik Malaysia baru tau.
Bila nak ke Bangkok? The place is really nice. Mesti rasa nak datang blk. Hehe
hi, just wondering if you happen to know anyone who has been on a journey from KL to Vietnam via thailand and laos.. on land.

To be honest, I don’t know. I just know this one girl who did overland journey from KL to Bangkok to Cambodia. Not to Vietnam. Anyway, if you wanna take train to do the overland journey, you can check this website : http://www.seat61.com. It is really useful. :)

Hi there, greetings from KL.. ;)
Hi!!
Awesome I work in KL too!
I really like the current theme/layout of your blog (Cubic Theme), Khai. I am thinking of using it myself, if you don’t mind… I am getting a little bored with my own theme on my own site.
I love it too!
Haha. No worries I don’t mind at all. After all, since we both have a lot of photos, this layout is the best way to maximise the display of the photos. ;D
