Lay down on me

Yay!!! I believe this is my first Malaysia FAM trip of the year. FAM means familiarization trip but the same time, I’m gonna do something quite different because it will involved treasure hunt.. or perhaps in my view, their version of Amazing Race since it involves driving to different states such as Malacca and Negri Sembilan. This trip is also to mark the launch the yearly event which is the Citrawarna in Kuala Lumpur.

I will be focused on the treasure hunt which is named the ASEAN Media Bloggers Tourism Hunt 2015 which is hosted by Tourism Malaysia. The flag off will be tomorrow Sunday, 18th October in Kuala Lumpur and it will be a 3-day tourism hunt. I heard the prizes are fantastic and there are many delegates including Brunei Darussalam in the participation list. The Tourism Hunt will require use to drive around and yes, they will be providing us cars to roam around and we will be driving a Proton sedan car.

Representing Brunei Darussalam will be Aziz Idris (Borneo Bulletin), Ak Fairol (Media Permata), Faiq Airudin (The Brunei Times) and myself. I’m not sure what the stakes are but I believe this will be a fun, challenging activity but also testing out physical and mental strength throughout the 3 day tourism hunt.

A big thank you to Tourism Malaysia (Brunei) for another opportunity to be part of this event. Let’s see how my team will fare. You can follow me on Snapchat and instagram @ranoadidas for updates on my journey.

The usual spot to buy or top up our 3G line – Digi. The Maxis and other telcos seemed quieter.

Sight seeing around KLCC yesterday and the haze level isn’t as bad as previous weeks

Mr. Fairol and Mr. Faiq having a moment during lunch at Dondang Sayang Coffeehouse at Corus Hotel. Great lunch buffet. Love it.

My room at Corus Hotel. I would recommend you to check this hotel out. Spacious and it’s also convenient to walk over to KLCC Suria. Only a minor setback is the slow wifi.

I was given the chance to showcase my skills on the stage last night

I don’t know how I fared but I managed to get the loudest cheers especially from the Philippines *lol*
