Genting vs Resorts World Sentosa

I still prefer Genting, which is much bigger in size. Resorts World Sentosa is new and nice, however couldn’t get entry tickets on a Monday afternoon at Universal Studio was a real turn off. I suppose I have never come across going to any theme park by not selling tickets on the same day. Though in general, service in Singapore is really good, very polite and well-spoken.

Eastin Hotel Penang next to Queensbay Mall

Eastin Hotel Penang deluxe seaview

This is a brand new hotel next to Queensbay Mall in Penang. Though I'm quite disappointed with their deluxe seaview room which is facing directly to rows of moldy roof. Wondering why roof can turn so moldy like that.. Baystar condo in front does have really nice seaview with units facing Jerejak Island.

I am quite amazed at the rate of development in Penang. In less than a year, a lot of new houses and condos have been built.

At Gurney drive which crowd throwing mud balls into the sea few months back. Sea still looks very muddy and polluted, doesn’t seem to help that much yet..

Attractions in Kuching, Sarawak

There are quite a number of hotels located along the Sarawak River where you can take a scroll along the river and to bring home souvenirs and famous cake lapis, a traditional layered cake. Attractions in Kuching are scattered in different directions with quite a long distance drive, do ask for tour information and departure time once arrived.



There are a few Sarawak museums in Kuching with Iban and Sarawak history, very interesting..


The best time to go to the crocodile farm is during their feeding time, where you can catch a closer look at crocodiles.


Sarawak Cultural Village is a huge center displaying different type of ethnic houses, along with traditional games, handicraft demonstrations, and dance performances.


Cultural show is very entertaining with blow pipe performance.

Berjaya Redang Beach Resort at Terengganu



It is more convenient to go Redang Island by Berjaya Air which lands right on its privately owned beach. Their beach is not that big but clean with white sand and safe with guards patrolling around beach area. During end of April, sea is still a bit rough with red flag posted on beach for swimmers. Part of the hotel was undergoing renovation with nice interior design. Food is excellent at their restaurants. Staffs are really friendly. Resort provides all the necessary equipments and transportation for snorkeling/diving trips. It is an excellent getaway for a short break.
