Son in National Service 2

As planned, we made a trip this morning to visit Kok Tung at his National Service Camp in Pinggiran Pelangi in Muadzam Shah, Pahang.

Together with his mother and Mei Ken, we started our journey at about 8 in the morning. We drove through Cheras to Ulu Langat, Titi in Jelebu in Negeri Sembilan, Simpang Pertang then to Serting. From Serting, we drove through a very straight road crossing mainly oil palm plantations and with about 78 kms, we reach the T junction of the Segamat - Kuantan Highway. We turn left towards Kuantan and clocking another 25 kms. we reached Muadzam Shah.
Total distance one way from KL is about 210 kms - journey time about 3 hours.

we reached the Camp at about 11 am, registering our self and he was informed of our arrival for the visit. We choose a nice spot under a tree near a lake, collect some plastic chair and started our conversation. As usual for a mother's concerned, many questions was asked and we were all very relief that he was in no stress and that his only problem was food......... ( all hot and spicy) and not enough to eat!!!!

Well, we have prepared some home cooked food and his favourite " Siew Yuk" which we bought in Pertang - still hot. We have our Lunch together and for sure the "Siew Yuk" taste the best.

We stay around until 2 pm and we say good bye. We assure him we will be back with more of his favourite food next week.

We got back to KL with heavy rain and I am dead tired. I will load some pictures of our visit maybe tomorrow and have to sign out now and straight to the bedroom.

Bye for now, Cheers.

Son at National Service

It's third day since Kok Tung went for the National Services Training in Pahang. Surprised that he still has his handphone available to him and he SMS us at about 8 pm. He wrote that things are all right except that the weather is bad (raining since) and having problem getting his clothing dried.

Well, he will have to rough it out for the whole duration.
We will be visiting him this coming weekend bringing along more clothing and his favourite food " Bak Kut Teh or Siew Yuk"

I will try to load up some pictures next week of our visit for your viewing.

Bye and Cheers.
