Rumah Peranginan Persekutuan Morib

On this trip to Morib, we had decided to try out the "Rumah Peranginan Persekutuan" which is managed by the Property Management Section of the Prime Minister's Department. If you are a government servant you'd be eligible to stay at this nice place. Beside this one in Morib, there are other similar ones in Cameron Highlands, Port Dickson, Bukit Fraser and Tasik Kenyir...It only cost RM50 a night to rent out a nice and cozy 2-bedroom chalet which is a real bargain.


This is the house of the Malaysian Badminton Legend, the Sidek brothers..

Port Dickson 13th March 2011

It has been quite a while since we visited Port Dickson. The last time we were in Port Dickson was sometime in June 2010. We stayed at Le Paris Hotel then. This time though we wanted to try out another hotel cum resort. We made booking for the Bayu Beach Resort about a week earlier.

Port Dickson beaches especially the stretch in Bt 4 is especially popular with campers

Port Dickson is located in Negeri Sembilan (The Land of Nine) and located about 34Km from Seremban, the capital. Driving from Kuala Lumpur takes about 1 1/2 hours drive and it is basically a favourite spot amongst those staying in the West part of the Peninsular. The place boasts of 18Km of sandy white beaches. Here's a bit of history of Port Dickson that I picked up from the internet :
