Sail Ship Training, STS Puteri Mahsuri

Last month, I’d been told that I’m chosen to participate in the Sail Ship Training in Lumut, Perak for 13days. We will be at Perak from 12 July to 24 July. Actually we will go on the ship on 15 July. The first 3days at Pulau Pangkor was for us to undergo a physical training in order to prepare us to go on ship for the rest of 10 days.

Let's have a look at those photoes taken by me..


On the very 1st day when i just reach Jetty Pulau Pangkor...

This is the place where i stayed for 3 days in Pulau Pangkor...

Some nice views of the Pulau Pangkor...




The last night at Pulau Pangkor. Group photo with all my group member...

We won two hampers.. Hehehez...


On the 15 July, we are sent by Institute Perguruan Temengong Ibrahim’s bus to the Navy Camp located at Lumut. After we reach the Jetty inside the Navy Camp, we went into the ship called Puteri Mahsuri. Well, the ship was made in Japan and Malaysia bought the Ship and own it in the year 1998. The ship is specialize for Navy Training and its huge enough. I can say it’s the first huge ship I’d see by my own eyes.

The front view of STS Puteri Mahsuri...

Side view of STS P.M...

We stay in the room called Cabin. There are 4person's cabin and two person's. I'm lucky enough to get the 2 person's one. This is the main door of my cabin...

When my cabin's door was opened, it's like this...

Double layer bed. I sleep the above bed. Exercise to crawl up. Hehehez...

In the Cabin, there's one washroom...

When the washroom's door opened, Washing sinki and also a bath tub..

The corridor along the Cabin...

The way to Saloon. We are well-known that saloon are the places for us to trim or do our hair, but in the ship, Saloon is the place for us to take meals, meeting, discussion and so on..

View of the saloon when dinner were prepared on the table ady...

Me with those Yummy Yummy meals... Well, everday there are 3 people incharge to help in the Galley(kitchen we used to call) to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Well, when i back from the Training, many ppl cant recognise me and told me that they just cant believe i'd turn this dark. Hahaha.. Let u see and decide urself now...


Before.. This the first day when i just go into the Boat ready to go Pulau Pangkor...

Any big different? Well, i want my fair skin back.. Huhuhuh!! T-T""||

Nice and beautiful sunset taken on the ship....

The ONLY five chinese during the programe.. :)~

We got this a chance to round Langkawi for about 7 to 8 hours. So we visited to few places there. One of it as shown in the pics is Makam Mahsuri...

The perigi mahsuri. Heard that the water in the perigi can used to be make Medicine purposes...

At the jetty Lumut, Perak. We gonna leave each other at this moment.. Sad sad...

KL Sentral. Bye bye my friends.... :~(

The only US that from Sabah & Sarawak. Last dinner together at KLIA's KFC. We gonna separate after this too...

I still remember there’s once this chance to see dolphins while I’m pulling the sail. Suddenly I heard people screaming: “Hey! Dolphins! A lot of dolphins at the sea!”
I ran to the side of the ship and yelled to myself: “ Wow! So many dolphins.” It’s my first time to see dolphins by my own eyes and not in the documentaries programme on the TV. I’m very happy and excited by that time and I left my Digicam in my cabin that time, thus, I can’t snap some photo for my memory and to show to my friends.

I miss the ship very much now. Hope can get back but its impossible. 5 years? 10 years? Nope, wont have the chance to go on the ship again! So, we should appreciate wad we had when we are having it man!
