So, this Betong trip was held during Deepavali. Just out of random my father wanted to go to Betong Thailand because he got holidays. Me and my family departed on friday, around morning and took around 4-5 hours to reach the border.
Before we reached the Malaysia custom, my father suggested to park our car and took the TuTu car to go Thailand. This suggestion was rejected because it was ridiculous and it was proven that our decision was wise as we did not saw a single TuTu car along the way to Betong.
U noe what is bad about Thailand custom? We need to pay to get our passport stamped, wth. Not pay once for all passport, but for EACH passport, what nonsense. And when we went back to Malaysia, need to pay AGAIN. 1 thing good about Malaysia, we can lodge report if the officer tries to ask for bribe lol
The transport in Betong was like, wow. More than 90% were motorcyclists, and they dun wear helmet, they can answer phone when driving, and a motor can fits more than 3 person, how amusing XD. Oh yea, and they DUN follow traffic light.
Had a few funny scenes where the communication was a big issue in Betong.
Scene 1: We tried to buy some satay at the roadside and so we ask:
we: ini daging apa?
hawker: &^^&%&$%&%$&.....
we (scratching head) : Daging ayam?
hawker: *(*(&$#$#$@$$...... babi..$#%$#@%@
we: oh ok, mau 10 ayam 10 babi bungkus
and so we sat at the side to eat some tong sui while waiting for the satay. 10 mins later, the hawker brought the satay and thought we were eating on the spot. So we said:
we: bungkus bungkus...
hawker: ............................ (with blur face)
we: tapao tapao.....
hawker: ........( still blur)
we: pa bao (hokkien)
hawker: ..............(still blur)
we: take away take away....
hawker: ................(blur)
we were like walao eh, and somehow she managed to catch the meaning lol
Nothing much to be seen in Betong, during this trip, we went to several places such as the Hot Spring and the Communist hideout on the second day. Quite interesting for the Communist
Here are some pics:
the satay hawker XD
Something i learnt after the trip, those who noe how to speak mandarin are most probably Communist lol
