Hello everybody! After I finished my STPM semester 2 exam,
I’ve decided to go for some lone trip around this hustling and bustling Klang
Valley.
Last 2
week, I went to Klang for a trip right after the sem 2 exam. In fact, I had
planned to go there long time ago, however, It is quite expansive for the
public transport fee to reach the destination. Until recently, I have already
saved enough money for this trip…

Klang
is the royal town of Selangor State in Malaysia which stituated approximately
30 km from Kuala Lumpur town centre and rougly 11km from Shah Alam (the capital
city of Selangor State). Klang district has also the Malaysia’s busiest port,
which is Port Klang (located west of the Klang town centre). On the other hand,
Klang has about 744 062 people stay there, making it is one of the densely
populated district in Selangor (density of population: 1,298/km2).
Therefore, the government had decided to construct LRT 3 (LRT Bandar Utama –Klang line) in order to increase connectivity from town to town in Klang
Valley.
In the
morning, I commuted LRT from BK5 station to Subang Station (which costs about
RM5.00 if you use touch n go). Subang station is one of the interchange
stations of LRT and KTM comuter. Therefore, I commuted the train from Subang
station to Klang station which costs RM 2.60 (touch n go price).

After I
arrived there, I went to a prestigious chinese kopitiam in Klang town center
(nearby the KTM station). Its name is Chong KoK Kopitiam.
Then, I
simply order their roti bakar and teh tarik there because I am hungry at that
time. The roti bakar costs RM2.60 and the tarik costs RM 1.20 (the the tarik is
cheaper than in other parts of Klang Valley). Honestly, their roti bakar sangat
perfect, the kaya in the roti bakar memang really good to taste. However, the
the tarik very common, just like in the mamak stall one…

After
finish eating there, then I cincai took free bus Selangor to tour around the
Klang town centre as well as Pandamaran. Pandamaran is a chinese village nearby
Port Klang and town centre. There has also lots of the Bak Kut Teh restaurant
for you to patronize there (I didn’t go to the bak kut teh restaurant because I
don’t have enough money to buy Bak Kut Teh).

That
ride took about an hour to tour around the town. Following that, I was going
back to the town centre (nearby the KTM station) and loitering around the
streets in the town centre… Then, I go
back to home…

Lastly,
this year the Majlis Perbandaran Klang (MPK) is hosting the campaign of “Tahun
Melawat Klang 2017” in order to boost the tourism sector there. So, don’t
forget to visit there if you have ample of free time. Soon, I will update for part 2 of this blog post...
