Balik Pulau simply means 'the other side of the island'- literally that’s how it means. Balik Pulau is cannot be seen from the other side of the island unless you’ve traveled through the hillside road. It’s located just on the northwestern coast of the Penang Island; it’s the fruit bowl of Penang featuring fruit plantations and spice gardens.

Route to reach Balik Pulau

One is by following the coastal road all the way round the island-take the Teluk Bahang road to Balik Pulau. By following this way, you can view the beautiful beaches of Batu Feringghi, forests, and farms of durian.

The second way is via Teluk Kumbar. Following this route, you will pass through the industrial area of Bayan Lepas. But please note, the hillside road via Teluk Kumbar is still under construction and very minimal road lights available during the night. If you fell hasty about driving on the road you’ve unknown about, you might want to consider the other route. However, despite the turns in this route, there’s minimal volume of gear changing during driving.

The third way to reach Balik Pulau is through Jalan Tun Sardon. This route has the widest road among all. You can view Balik Pulau beautiful scenario by following this way as it passes over a small hill. A very clear and beautiful sunset can be view on the way of this road or you may stop for a while at hilltop of the road for photo snapping.

Sarawak state govt to extend Kg Salak by building 320 affordable houses

KUCHING: Fisherman Jamali Uni is excited over the state government’s plan to build affordable housing while it maintains his nearby village, Kampung Salak, as a traditional fishing village.

“With this, my children who work in the city can own an affordable home on the mainland and yet still keep their heritage,” said the 66-year-old at the Kampung Salak Durian Festival here yesterday.

“Now, they are renting in the city because it’s such a hassle to take the 15-minute boat ride off the island.”

The state government plans to extend the village to the mainland by building 320 units of affordable housing at Sungai Tiram and it is expected to be completed at the latest, by next year.

The scheme will also cater for villagers from Pasir Pandak and Pasir Panjang, which were badly affected by erosion.

Other than the unpredictable tides, which make commuting to work difficult, villagers at the 100-year-old Kampung Salak also have to contend with the absence of water and electricity.

The village, which has a population of over 500, has all this while, survived on generators for electricity and water from man-made ponds.

Currently, it is lights out by midnight and dry taps that could last for three months during the dry season.

Conceding that it was just too expensive to provide these amenities, Pantai Damai assemblyman Dr Abdul Rahman Junaidi said this was the main reason for the move to extend the village to the mainland.

He hoped to meet with the Rural and Regional Development Ministry on the possibility of supplying treated water to Kampung Salak from the mainland via submarine water pipes.

Dr Abdul Rahman said the Government intended to promote the area for eco-tourism for its marine life adding that it was also known for dolphin sightings and other aquaculture activities.

The island itself, he added, had caves that could prove interesting for archeologists.

“Even now, Kampung Salak has its own homestay programme and because of its unique placing of being an island surrounded by mangroves although within the city area, it’s one of the few closest place a visitor could go to for a fishing village experience,” he added.

I would like to update pictures of my homestay aptment which is now totally 100% ready for rental. Herewith i attach recent pictures of living and dining. My ID concept is modern, simple yet comfy. Its truly a 'HOME AWAY FROM HOME'.

Curious to find out what life in a Malay village is like? Try a homestay.

Homestays are becoming an increasingly popular activity in Malaysia, both with foreigners and locals. Life in a Malay village is sometimes as alien to the country’s urbanites as it is to the international visitors.

With this in mind, Tourism Malaysia, together with Kembara Travel & Tours and ANCM Creative (an events management company), invited 70 participants from the media, entertainment and travel industries in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand to experience the village life.

Among other things, we were promised interaction with the villagers, visits to tourist attractions and “eco-challenge” games.

Homestay Kampung Raga

Our first homestay destination, Kampung Raga in the district of Yan, Kedah, took six hours by bus to reach. The villagers welcomed us with kompang (a traditional percussion instrument) and serunai (flute), complete with a contingent carrying bunga manggar and bunga telur, and three young boys performing a silat (martial art) demonstration.

We were divided into groups and introduced to our foster families. Some 20 families in the village had signed up for the homestay programme, and each family could take in up to five guests, depending on the number of rooms in their house.

Don’t expect the modern amenities and luxuries of city life — village life ambles along at a much slower pace.

Our foster mum, Umi, said that most of her guests were university and exchange students, corporate and team-building groups from Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Korea.

Lunch that first day was served on mats by the river. After that, we returned to our foster family’s home to get ready for the eco-challenge games organised by the village folks. Eleven teams of four took part, and each had to complete tasks like weaving jackfruit baskets out of leaves, making local delicacies, competing in a tug-of-war and catching ducks in a muddy paddy field.

The night ended with a cultural show featuring traditional Kedahan music and a nasyid (religious singing) performance by the women village folk. We were invited to try the instruments and play along with the musicians.



Sungai Sedim, Kulim

We left in the morning and travelled north to the Tree Top Canopy Walk in Sg Sedim, Kulim. The canopy walk is said to be the longest canopy walk in the world, spanning 925m with the highest point being 30m.

Each team was given a quiz sheet, and we had to search for information like the local names of the trees and where certain trees were located.

Another thing that Sg Sedim is famous for is its water activities. Adventure junkies from all over the world flock to its raging waters to tackle the many rapids ranging from grade 1 to 4.

Unfortunately for us, the local guide said it was too dangerous to do any rafting because of the heavy rains, which can cause the river to swell up without warning. What a letdown.

The only water activity the guide allowed us to do was to jump into the river from a bridge and allow the current to bring us back to shore. Oh well, it was better than nothing.

Laman Bangkinang

Our next homestay was in Laman Bangkinang, a small village in the district of Kuala Pilah, Negri Sembilan. Again, we were divided into groups and placed in the care of foster families. This being Negri Sembilan, they were Minangkabau, a matrilineal clan.

There’s an interesting story on how the word minangkabau came about.

According to our guide, provinces in Indonesia back in the day used to wage war against each other, with the victor conquering the loser’s territory. In one particular instance, the leaders of two provinces decided against a violent confrontation, and sent two buffalos (kerbau) instead.

One province sent an angry female buffalo whose calf had been taken from her. Seeing this, the other province sent a hungry calf with a knife tied to its nose. When the calf ran to suckle, the knife pierced the belly of the adult buffalo, killing her. The calf won (menang) the contest, and that’s how the name Minangkabau came about.

One highlight of our stay here was the mock wedding in full costume staged especially for us. Three couples from our group took part in the event, with two couples dressed in Malay wedding attire and the other in Minangkabau dress.

The entire ceremony, from the arrival of the grooms to the bersanding and merenjis rites, were carried out, and all of us were invited to participate in one way or another. It was an eye-opener for the Thais who had never experienced a Malaysian wedding.

The next evening, all the women were invited to participate in a Ratu Kebaya contest, a pageant to crown the loveliest lady in kebaya, a traditional Malay attire. This event proved a great opportunity for us to interact with our foster families, since we had to borrow our outfit from them.

We were also encouraged to learn a dance and perform it later on to score points for our respective groups. It was quite hilarious to watch, as most of us couldn’t remember the steps and resorted to improvising.

We also visited a few local attractions like the Jeram Tengkek waterfalls and the old Minangkabau palace, the Istana Seri Menanti.

Events director Azman Hasan, 43, said the main objective of the programme was to grow the local economy through homestays.

“We invited Indonesia and Thailand for this programme as they are our closest neighbours, and we have a somewhat similar culture and heritage. The next step would be to invite participants from countries further afield.

“I think we are ready for the world. We have been running this programme for more than three years now. Kedah, especially, should be ready because they have such good hospitality there.”
