I was there since Thursday & came back on Sunday. Quite a lovely town - famous for Chinese seafood [Kampung Cina, of which I miss it, one person very hard to have seafood].
Seri Majung is a new township where all government agencies offices are currently located, quite like a mini Shah Alam here, clean & organise. Heard from my media friends that the crime rate is rather low here. I went out for jogged every night after dinner, for about 3 - 4km [can't compare with the Powerman of which 10km, 64km & 11km].
People at Seri Majung & Sitiawan are also quite friendly.
However, one thing I remember the most is the foot reflexology and body massage by Chinese [from main land China]. I have always reserved from the Chinese [you know lah all the media reports about them]..... I really enjoyed it & in fact I was there everyday right after the assignment was over. Quite a good way to unwind. The name of the place is called Yat Sum, of which is the same row with Secret Recipe.
For internet connectivity in Lumut & Sitiawan area, you can probably get good reception at:-
1. Crystal Hotel [complimentary for hotel guests, but at selected area]
2. Secret Recipe [FOC, but with a drink]
3. Orient Star [must be a TM Net hotspot user]
4. MPM [found out from a media friend]
From the very first day while I was at the hotel, I began to miss home - my wife & kids..... & also the bed. I was having hard time to sleep as the bed was rather dirty [I don't think the house keeping change the bed sheet, they just tidy the room]....... The hot shower was cold etc.But, the front desk Mr. Ong [I think the boss] service was rather good.
Will post pix on the race after.
