I had a good experience on a five day trip to Malaysia, kuantan. This was the first time I took a plane from budget terminal and the plane we took was cute as it was small and looks different from the huge plane I normally take.
We spent the first night sleeping at a hotel and the breakfast was nice as there were lots of yummy food. After that, we proceed to MGSS where they greeted us warmly. We had fun watching the performance they perform for us. We had games and some students brought us around the school. We had lunch there and after that we went to a shopping centre nearby.
After shopping for about 1 hour, we move on to the kampong where we stay for the rest of the trip. The villagers welcome us and we learn some simple malay words. I share a room with Vernice while Yujing share a room with Huixuan. Our room was damn nice. There is a toilet in my room! So lucky. My foster parent was good to us and I really enjoy the stay. I miss her alot.
From the kampong stay, I learn how they live there and what they normally do there. We went to the palm oil and rubber plantation and place I like the most is the paddy field. On the way there, we saw deforestation and burnt trees. Later than I know that they do this to make way for oil palm and rubber plantation.
On the second last day, we went to the elephant conservation. Over there, we can feed the elephants, bath them and ride them. I felt sad for the elephants as the people there pull them by their ear and when the person pull, the elephant would fall down into the water with about five to six people sitting on the back.
I hope that the school can arrange more of this kind of learning journing oversea as I think many of the students will like it and they will learn lots of thing from all this trips.
