I helped our office to organise a trip to Kukup, Malaysia on 7th July. I had been looking thru the internet for info on Kukup since 2 years ago! It's nice to see the fishing village for myself. Life there is almost like the 70's but we were rushing thru since the kids need to come back and get ready for school the next day. Saw some interesting fish in the Kelong; especially the archer fish. it spits out water to get the ikan bilis on the platform to drop into the water!
Witness the fisherman scooped out loads of fishes and they were knocked out in the box containing some chemical? it looks bubbly like soap water. Visited the Visitor Center which showcases the living things and plants in the mangrove. The lady at the center kept telling me not to eat the various types of shells even though they are edible because the water is so polluted nowadays!
I guess moderation is still the key.
We also had some branded durians which our Malaysian friends recommended. They were great.
It was a nice outing and I'm glad that Davy, Joycelyn and Daniel enjoyed themselves!
