Tuesday, May 20th, 2008On travelling restriction to Shenzhen via Hong Kong
Monday, May 19th, 2008I just got words from the Malaysia Association in regard to malaysian going into China via the Hong Kong route.
“The following information applies to your friends from Malaysia, family members who plan to visit HK and wants to hop over to Shenzhen for a day visit etc.
As of 01st April 2008, China visas were no longer being issued at border crossing points for travel to Shenzhen or any other airports in China.
Next, the recent ruling affect nationals of 33 countries which includes malaysia. Malaysian traveler would no longer be able to obtain visa at the visa office at the China Resources Building, Wanchai, HKSAR, unless they are residents i.e. possess of HKID.
Therefore, please suggest to your friends and family members to apply for their visa in advance in Malaysia prior to arriving HKSAR should they wish to hop over to China for a short visit.. ” from Judi Chew – Chairperson of MAHK.
In other words, all China visas will be issued at the point of origin country of the traveler. I don’t know how long this ruling will be in place but just be aware about this ruling. This is sort of my public advisory to malaysian.

On checking out the Cheung Chau Festival
Saturday, May 17th, 2008I went to the Cheung Chau Bun Festival on th 12th of May. My friends told me to wait a least an hour and a half to board the ship. But I was quite fortunate. I arrived at Pier 5 (Star Ferry Piers) around 11.15am and the lines was not that bad.
I took the fast ferry ($32 Hkd one way – 20 minutes ride) because I don’t think I can hacked it by taking the slow ferry ($16 Hkd – 45 minutes rides). I probably throw up after 15 minutes on the slow ferry.
This picture was taken as I was disembarking the ferry. Packed….with peoples…
The bun..near the temple.
The jossstick. I tried to be artistic when I took this pic.
Something need to be admire…she need to stand for the next 4 hours on one leg.
Checkout my slide show…
