ACE Archery Center, Skudai Johor

I visited this place because of my old buddy - Mark Teh.
It's been a long time I 'forget' to step in to my friend Archery Center. (N1°32.507' E103°39.568') It is located at the 6th Floor of Skudai Parade.
It's totally different from the last visited. More items to display and also more bow and arrow at most of every corner!
This Archery Center established 5 years ago, and it's the ONLY one around Johor Bahru. I wonder why peoples around here don't like this Sport?! It's because of practice? Or it's because of sports?
Most of the peoples here would prefer something to do with the men Ego....I think. :)

Some pictures to share.......

Wifi Kopitiam (Coffee Shop) at Tmn Molek, Johor Bahru

I was about to take my breakfast at my usual place - the Wifi Kopitiam (The first & the only around this area), I saw the local authorities 'Swept" away the illegal hawker around the corner.



Yes, very fast! Only takes 10 minutes!
They are many hawkers around Johor Bahru are illegally put up their stalls for business. Some of that really create inconvenience for transport passing......but some of it hide it at the back alley.

Welcome to April 2008

Welcome to April 2008

April is generally the warmest month of the year on Samui, by far!

It just becomes steaming hot, so hot that you just sit outside and the sweat runs off you! Time for a nice cold one!!

The diving is also excellent in April, great vis and plenty of big fishes, including Whaleshark sightings during this months. For more info, see my dive website or my dive blog.

One real good and nice thing during April is, that each year the Songkran festival or the Thai New Year is celebrated between 13 and 15 April. Last year there was very unusual rain during Songkran!

A great time to visit Thailand and Samui, so I hope to see you around soon!
