It was the a program held my Administration of Students Affair of IPG-International Languages Campus. The main program was kayaking and we had to pay RM35 each. Unfortunately I couldn't find any photo during kayaking activity.

Early in the morning...our journey took more than an hour from KL to Port Dickson. We stopped for a while at petrol station to withdraw money and buy snacks.

At time we arrived, the shore was empty, surut habis...haha, so we had to wait for the sea level to rise. I hate tide lol. Only then, we were able to do kayaking.

Srikandi...All of them are now teaching; Kajian Sosial and French.

The Otai...The guy in blue is Mr. Thahir Kamaruzzaman. He was once the officer at the administration and he retired last year. Such a great, humble and friendly man.

Me...Muhamad Rizal bin Sadiman.

We were on our way heading towards Tanjung Tuan or Cape Rachado (the name was given by the Portuguese) to see the famous legendary 'pusaran' or whirlpool.

The front gate of Tanjung Tuan. We were supposed to pay RM1 each but we were lucky that day for not needing to pay the entrance fee. Alhamdulillah...

This is the lighthouse of Tanjung Tuan.

We were very happy after 20 minutes of walking. The weather was totally hot! The sun was very mean that day but we were meaner lol. By making this far was an achievement of a lifetime haha.

Can you see the whirlpools? I couldn't, so unfortunate. According to myth, there was a fisherman managed to get through the brutal whirlpools. He was the only one who survived while the others were nowhere to be found. They all went messing. The whirlpoosl is said to be brutally rotate during fool moon. Hair-raising ha?

Some of us were posing like models of the magazine.

While some were just sitting overthere, doing nothing; we were actually hiding for the sunlight.

Heading back to the shore.

The final blow is the photo of us together. There we 40 of us actually but some couldn't make here. Anyway, thanks to Aman Rasidi for the photos. It was a splendid experience indeed.

Wanna know more about Port Dickson and this awesome spot, do visit this travel blog; Travelog air & sha.

Hope you get it...till then, that is how

My Birding field trips: Raptor Census at Tanjung Tuan, Malaysia

Posted: 16 Apr 2011 07:10 AM PDT

The company that I work required us to utilise our previous year carried forward leave before 31st of March. It has being a few years already I use a big portion of my carried forward leave as field trips to participate in conservation of raptors through monitoring.

Raptor comes from a Latin word rapere that means to seize, to grap by force. Raptor is a term use for birds that have good eyesight for accurate judgement of distance for landing and hunting. They also have strong talons, strong curved beak, strong legs for catching, holding food and to tear flesh.

The purpose of research on migrating raptors through monitoring this long term migratory raptor census project is collate information on migratory raptor populations, species, it's flight strategies on weather conditions. Over the years of data information collated will then able to make a better analysis does it's flight patterns behaviour, populations are affected by the environmental factors. The intresting part is others countries who are in the migratory raptors flyway are also doing this type of survey and monitoring. The data collated by each country will then be combine and compile for a better information and knowledge necessary for conservation of raptors and their habitats.

Raptors migratory patterns and it's populations is a good yardstick of the health of our ecosystem environment. A healthy ecosystem is a good indicator availabilities of adequate food source and fresh water for all.

Where is the best site for Raptor migratory monitoring in Malaysia for spring migration?

At present we able to indentify that Tg Tuan or formally known as Cape Rachado.

The meaning of Spring migration.

Spring migration is bird in big population migrate long distance flying north bound in the spring to breed. Food source is the primary motivation for migration. The longer days of the northen hemispher sumner provide extended time for breeding birds to feed their young.

As migration is energy intensive the fly route are normally shaped by geographical, ecological, and even meteorological factors. Flyways normally is along mountain ranges or coastlines this is due the birds could have the advantage of updrafts and other wind patterns. If possible they will avoid large stretches of open water (sea).

What is the Best time to watch the raptors at Tanjung Tuan.

In order to conserve energy to cross the open sea the raptors will use the fly path of Pulau Rupat, Indonesia that is about 38km distance from Tg Tuan. As raptors are large they require thermals to assist them to glide without using much energy to continous flapping their wings, the timeframe windows on a good condusive weather for migration is between 11am till 4pm.

The waiting time for migratory raptors, you could observe the others residence birds and wildlife that residece in that small green lung.

This year the 42 days counting starts from Feb bring a final score of 57,128 raptors fly past Tg Tuan.

Oriental Honey Buzzard- 53,040

Japanese Sparrowhawk - 152

Does the raptors migratory patterns and it's population impacted by the changes on global weather conditions and natural dissaster? If you are a birder based in Malaysia do spare some days as a volunteering basis to assist Raptor Census at Tg Tuan.

Your small contribution and effort will leads us the answers for the above. The census are carry out yearly from Mid February till April.

Dig deep: 10 - 13th March 2012: Raptor Watch, Tanjung Tuan

Posted: 15 Mar 2012 06:10 PM PDT

Compared to last year, this year's pilgrimage was a decidedly low key affair. The weather conditions conspired against getting many good photos, so, for a better idea of the event and its birds, have a browse through 12-13th, 14th, 15th, 16th and 17th March 2011.

On the 10th, the entire day produced only 17 Grey-faced Buzzards, including this juvenile.

We were glad of the opportunity to watch any bird that would show itself, such as this immature Black-naped Oriole...

...and a Blue-throated Bee-eater.

After a while, even these disappeared, so we resorted to looking at pictures of raptors...

...And people HOPING to get pictures of raptors!

Thankfully, the 11th was a lot better! We counted over 5,300 Oriental Honey-buzzards, though wind and lighting conditions were still not in favour of the photographers!

The best of a bad bunch - a male, two females and a juv. I got much better pics last year!

The star of the day was a dark morph Booted Eagle.

The pictures would have been a lot better if I hadn't had the camera on the wrong settings! Still - it happens, and there will be others...

This Barn Swallow seemed to think it was hilarious!

The 12th was a new low - just one OHB all day, but fortunately, we had made the decision not to sit at the lighthouse. Instead we had a lazy day in the garden and by the beach, when I trained my camera on some of the common birds I usually overlook.

Asian Glossy Starling, Brown Shrike, Spotted Dove and Yellow-vented Bulbul, all taken with coffee in John and Ting Howes' front garden!

A pair of Oriental Magpie-robins coming to take scraps as we lunched at the Yacht Club!

At dusk we went to check out a green-pigeon roost hoping for Orange-breasted. No luck, but we did observe this male Pink-necked apparently eating mud from the foreshore - can anyone explain it? Perhaps taking mineral supplements?

A female Pink-necked Green-pigeon preparing to roost in Rhizophora.

So that was it for Raptor Watch this year. We were fortunate to have one 'big day', and it made us realize what exceptional fortune we'd had last year!

Raptor Watch 2012 by MNS

Posted: 25 Mar 2012 11:35 AM PDT

RW, organised by the Malaysian Nature Society, is a festival to celebrate the return of the migratory birds of prey or better known as raptors on their journey back to their breeding grounds in the northern hemisphere. RW is a public event meant to raise awareness on the conservation of raptors and their habitats.

RW is held annually on the first weekend of March. For the year 2012 the event is held on March 10 & 11 (Saturday & Sunday).

However, the spring raptor migration actually begins in mid February and lasts till mid April. For those who are not able to come to the RW, you can still come anytime within this period to see the birds. Over the years of monitoring, MNS has discovered that the peak period to watch the most number of birds is the first weekend of March.

An opportunity for all

RW is an opportunity for the general public to witness one of nature's most exquisite offerings. Raptors migrate southward to escape the bitter cold of the northern winters and make the same venturous journey back during spring to their breeding grounds in temperate Asia.

Visit their Website at HERE for more information.

For Tanjung Tuan

One of the main objectives of RW is to ensure the continued conservation of Tanjung Tuan Forest Reserve by promoting RW as a national eco-tourism event.

During the spring migration, thousands of raptors can be seen flying across the Straits of Malacca. Having to use massive amount of energy flying across the Straits of Malacca, the raptors will be flying low at the event site making it possible to have a good view of these magnificent birds.

Tanjung Tuan has been listed as an important raptor site by BirdLife International, National Geographic Society and Hawkmountain.

But for many years Tanjung Tuan has been facing a development threat. The sea front of Tanjung Tuan is expensive real estate. As Tanjung Tuan is an extension of the Port Dickson holidaying coasts, its value as a vacation spot is high. For many years plans after plans were drawn by local authorities to develop Tanjung Tuan. And throughout these years, Malaysian Nature Society has been striving to keep Tanjung Tuan intact.

The need to conserve Tanjung Tuan was mainly for the migratory raptors. Tanjung Tuan is an important stop over site for migratory raptors after crossing the Straits of Malacca. It provides food for the raptors as well as a resting spot. For raptors arriving late in the evening, it provides shelter for the night before they take off for flight the next day. Without Tanjung Tuan, many raptors may never make it back, due to exhaustion and lack of food.

The conservation of Tanjung Tuan is also important for its surrounding marine life and its forest growth. The trees in Tanjung Tuan acts a gene bank for tropical timber trees and the waters of Tanjung Tuan is rich with coral and sea-grass, both important for green turtles that lay eggs in secluded beaches of Tanjung Tuan.

Posted: 01 Apr 2012 05:35 PM PDT

Alhamdulillah, seramai 7 muslimat Kawasan Bukit Katil telah dapat bersama-sama menyumbangkan tenaga bagi memastikan kemenangan dalam PRU 13 nanti. Gabungan di antara beberapa muslimat Dun Bachang serta Muslimat Bukit Beruang telah berjaya mengedarkan risalah dalam program turun padang semalam. Beberapa lokaliti di Bukit Beruang telah pun berjalan lancar semalam meskipun dalam cuaca hujan yang renyai-renyai.

Walaupun kajian mengatakan bahawa 3 negeri akan tetap kekal di tangan BN, iaitu Melaka, Johor dan Pahang namun itulah bukanlah penghalang untuk muslimat bekerja keras bagi memastikan kemenangan itu akan berpihak kepada PR.

Lambat laun Kebenaran itu pasti akan terserlah.

"Ya ALLAH, Jadikanlah Detik pertama hari kami sebagai kebaikan, Pertengahanya sebagai kemenangan dan penghujungnya sebagai kejayaan.

Kami berlindung kepada MU dari sebuah hari yang di mulai dengan kengerian, di tengahi dengan putus asa dan di akhiri dengan lara."

Beli kuih raya di Serkam , Hamidah Food Industry | Blog Zool ...

Posted: 26 Aug 2011 08:22 PM PDT

Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera semua..

Tak berapa hari je lagi, Syawal akan menjelang tiba menandakan hari raya. Banyak keperluan yang dicari pada penghujung Ramadhan ini. Antara yang perlu disediakan adalah kuih raya. Bagi pencari kuih raya di Melaka (terutama di daerah Jasin), mungkin ada yang pernah mendengar tentang kedai di Serkam yang menjual pelbagai kuih (tidak semestinya di hari Raya). Kedai ini terletak di tepi jalan dinamakan Mamaku Food Industries. Ia telah bertapak lama dan pernah mengalami kebakaran namun kini ia semakin maju. Jika dulunya hanya kedai kecil ditepi jalan namun kini lotnya semakin besar. Kepada sesiapa yang rajin singgah ke ikan bakar Umbai atau Serkam, mesti singgah ke kedai tersebut untuk mendapatkan kudapan walaupun bukan di hari raya.

Memandangkan membuat kuih agak leceh dan mak saya pun sudah berusia maka kaedah kuih tunjuk-tunjuk perlu digunakan. Dan lokasi yang menjadi kemestian adalah di kedai Mamaku Food Industries ( Hamidah Food Industry). Memang banyak pilihan di kedai tersebut dengan harga yang berpatutan. Banyak juga yang dibeli seperti rempeyek, kuih telinga dan pelbagai jenis kerepek. Kat situ ada juga kuih tart, cookies dan sebagainya. Tapi mak tak berapa minat. Jadi ambil apa yang boleh .. Kalau nak tau kuih apa bolehlah datang ke rumah ye…

Ini gambar yang sempat disnap..

Ni papan tanda kedai tersebut.

Pemandangan dari luar. Banyak khemah disediakan khas untuk kuih raya ni..

Siap ada banner kat jalanraya tu..

DAENG MAREWAH - menjejak asalku: hubungan saudara daeng di ...

Posted: 23 Feb 2012 05:29 PM PST

Assalammualaikum wrt.

Hari tergerak nak cerita tentang perkaitan saudara tedong. sebelum ini sememangnya bonda selalu menceritakan tentang saudara lubok, cenderah yang kuat kaitan sedaranya dengan kami di serkam darat. Arwah Tok Wan Daud dan Nek Wan(Belakang Kemas Serkam Darat) boleh dikatakan selalu dikunjungi sedara di sebelah sana. Tedong cuma kenal Arwah Paklang Sebelah Ayah saya dan memang setiap tahun mereka dan kami akan datang beraya. yang lain agak samar-samar. Rumah mereka di Tedong Baroh dengan dengan bengkel dak Bai @ area situ-situ jugak lak.Dak Madi dan yang lain-lain adik beradik kat sana kira rapat dengan kami.

Bonda pun membuka cerita tentang saudara lain yang ada disana. Bonda kata ada saudara daeng di sana keluarga Nenek Saeden dan anaknya Nenek Saiyah dan anak cucu beliau.Raya juga boleh kata selalu datang raya kat rumah kami. cuma kurang perasaan yang mana satu.Rumahnya dekat rumah Timah Hj Abas

Menurut Bonda lagi, keluarga disana datang daripada jurai kami dan kaitan dengan kami Nenek kami NENEK HAJI dengan adik beradik Tok Talib.Kena la sama-sama semak balik carta teromba keluarga kat blog. agak pening sikit ceritanya.

So cuma agak kurang berjumpa dengan saudara disana dan hubungan daeng agak kurang dan jauh.

Begitula ceritanya.lepas ni nak ceritakan lagi pasal Kedatangan Sultan Ibrahim di makam/ kubur tidak bertulis nama di rumah Kak timah Balok dan cadangan penubuhan persatuan daeng dimasa itu oleh Nenek Ara Kami.... menarik dan tungguuuuuu...
