Pengenalan.

Azmi (id Facebook: Muhamad Azmi), pada 05 April 2014 melalui Facebook Messenger, telah mengajak saya untuk berjalan-jalan di Batam pada akhir bulan Mei 2014. Ajakan ini menjadi lebih serius, melalui Facebook Messenger pada 12 April 2014, selepas beliau membaca catatan saya ke Batam di dalam blog ini, kerana di dalam catatan itu, saya merasa tidak puas berkembara semasa di sana. Saya amat berminat dan saya menanyakan, adakah ia benar-benar ajakannya. Azmi memang serius, jesteru itu saya pun memulakan persiapan untuk ke sana, walaupun ia masih ada sebulan setengah lagi.

Pada 18 April 2014, saya menempah tiket kapal terbang Tiger Air untuk ke Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Changi, Singapura (kod IATA: SIN), selepas beberapa hari meninjau harga tambang beberapa syarikat penerbangan seperti MAS, FireFly, AirAsia, SIA, Silk Air dan JetStar Asia. Ini kerana Tiger Air memberikan harga tiket paling murah. Lagipun dapatlah rasa menggunakan klia2 yang baru sahaja dibuka. Saya tidak pernah merasai menaiki penerbangan syarikat ini, jadi inilah pengalaman saya menaiki Tiger Air. Saya sengaja mengambil penerbangan lewat malam, agar saya dapat ke terminal feri HarbourFront lebih awal. Kalau tidur di lapangan terbang pun tidak mengapa.

Pada 19 April 2014 pula, saya menempah tiket feri dari HarbourFront ke Batam Centre, melalui penyedia perkhidmatan feri Batam Fast melalui webnya. Dengan harga promotion SG$18.00 (+- RM 46.80) berbanding harga biasa SG$ 25.00 (+- RM 65.00). Penyedia lain yang ke Batam Centre (ingat, Batam mempunyai 6 terminal feri penumpang seperti yang saya nyatakan di dalam blog bagi perjalanan saya ke Batam yang lepas) seperti Sindo Ferry & Wave Master pula tiket sehalanya lebih mahal iaitu SG$30.00 (+- RM78.00). Untuk tiket kembali ke HarbourFront nanti, saya akan beli di Batam sahaja (untuk mengetahui harga tiket di sana, difahamkan ia lebih murah jika dibayar dengan Rupiah).

Namun saya difahamkan di Batam Centre juga menggunakan Dollar Singapura untuk membeli tiket feri dan harga lebih kurang sahaja, maka saya beli sahaja melalui online di laman web Batam Fast. Lebih mudah, tiada perlu bayar caj perkhidmatan penumpang (cukai pelabuhan) asing-asing.

Pada 22 Mei 2014 hari Khamis, saya membuat pendaftaran masuk web untuk penerbangan pulang saya, TR2648 dari Terminal 2, Changi ke klia2. Alhamdulillah, yang penting pastikan daftar masuk dulu, baru lega hati ini. Namun pendaftaran masuk Tiger Air ini setakat ini, hanya untuk penerbangan dari Changi, Singapura sahaja, lain-lain lapangan terbang masih belum dilaksanakan lagi.

Walaupun saya mempunyai lebih kurang Rp900 ribu di dalam tangan, namun saya ke Masjid India, KL untuk menukar RM100.00. Setelah melihat kadar pertukaran di penggurup wang yang ada, kadar di Berkath adalah yang terbaik iaitu Rp10 ribu dijual RM2.85. Jadi dapatlah saya Rp350 ribu tambahan.

23/05/2014 (Jumaat)

Saya bergerak dari rumah pada pukul 1830 (6:30 petang) dari rumah dengan menggunakan skuter. Saya melalui Lebuhraya Duta - Ulu Klang (DUKE) E33 dan Lebuhraya Baru Lembah Klang (NKVE) E1 melalui plaza tol Jalan Duta. Sepanjang perjalanan, jalan ada kurang kereta berbanding biasa kerana hari itu merupakan hari Jumaat, biasanya agak sesak. Sesakpun berlaku dari 1 km selepas persimpangan Kota Damansara sehingga 1 km selepas persimpangan Damansara, biasanya ia akan sesak dari tol Jalan Duta lagi. Alhamdulilllah. Kemudian saya menyusuri ke Lebuhraya Hubungan Tengah (ELITE) E6, yang terus ke KLIA. pada jam 1940 (7:40) saya sampai ke susur baru ke klia2. Teruja saya kerana ini kali pertama sebagai penumpang saya menggunakannya.

Seterusnya saya mengikut tanda arah untuk kawasan parkir motorsikal. Ia bersama dengan tanda arah teksi. Ia menuju ke aras 1 iaitu bawah sekali. Selepas melewati kawasan teksi mengambil penumpang, maka sampailah ke kawasan parkir motorsikal.

Kawasan ia begitu kemas dan yang penting dalam kawasan tertutup. Ia terletak di aras CP1 Blok B kompleks parkir klia2 ini. Berbezalah dengan kawasan parkir di LCCT dulu. Sempat saya lihat kadar bayaran parkirnya. RM1.00 untuk setiap hari setiap kemasukan. Kira oklah dan agak murah. Namun pada pendapat saya, bilangan parkir ini agak sedikit, dan wajar ditambah kerana pada masa ini iaitu ketika awal perasmian klia2, parkir motorsikal sudah hampir penuh. Sewajarnya pihak Malaysia Airport Berhad perlu menambah bilangan parkir untuk motorsikal.

Seterusnya saya ke lif, yang tidak jauh dari kawasan parkir dan perlu ke CP4 untuk ke bangunan terminal. Sampai CP4 perlu berjalan sedikit untuk ke pintu masuk ke kompleks membeli belah gateway@klia2 ini. Saya perlu menaiki travelalor menuju ke tingkat 3 untuk ke balai pelepasan kerana tingkat parkir CP4 adalah tingkat 2 gateway@klia2 yang bersambung dengan balai ketibaan klia2.

Sampai di balai ketibaan, saya terus ke barisan kaunter Z untuk mendaftar masuk di kaunter daftar masuk TigerAir. Terpaksa mendaftar masuk di kaunter kerana buat masa ini TigerAir hanya menawarkan daftar masuk web untuk pelepasan di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Changi sahaja. Daftar masuk secara telefon pintar belum dilaksanakan lagi. Nasib baik tidak berapa ramai sebagaimana kaunter AirAsia. Akhirnya selepas 10 minit beratur dan 2 minit proses pendaftaran masuk, saya mendapat pas berlepas seperti di bawah.

Selepas itu saya ke surau di balai berlepas ini untuk bersolat jamak Maghrib dan Isyak. Setelah selesai, saya ke MarryBrown untuk makan, lupa mahu makan dahulu di rumah kerana isteri saya baru tiba mengambil anak dari sekolah untuk aktiviti bola sepak. Untuk set dua ketul ayam, kentang putar, salad sayuran dan air berkabolat bersaiz biasa, harganya dekat RM18.00!!! Ambil kau, biasa harganya cuma RM10.00 atau RM11.00. Hendak buat macam mana sudah di lapangan terbang, memang mahal lah.

Setelah selesai makan, yang mana kerana tahu di dalam kapal terbang tiada makanan, kerana saya menaiki penerbangan tambang murah, TigerAir, yang makanannya agak mahal, kira-kira RM40.00 jika beli lebih awal di web, kalau di pesawat tidak tahulah berapa.

Agak besar juga klia2 ni, kena pula pintu pelepasan saya di pelantar Q iaitu di bangunan satelit. Merasa juga saya menggunakan jambatan udara di klia2 ini. Menang agak jauh juga berjalan kaki. Kebanyakan kedai terutama kedai bebas cukai masih belum siap. Namun di ruang legar utama bangunan satelit, kedai-kedai majoriti sudah buka. Pada mulanya saya ingat tiada pemeriksaan keselamatan, rupanya semasa hendak masuk ke ruangan pelepasan ada pemeriksaan. Jadi jika mahu kembali ke ruang legar rasanya susah kot, tidak seperti di bangunan satelit A KLIA. Satu lagi, saya tidak berselesih dengan penumpang yang baru tiba ke klia2 ini. Oh rupanya, mereka ke terminal utama menggunakan laluan berbeza di tingkat yang berbeza. Memang kita tidak akan berselisih dengan penumpang yang berlepas dan yang tiba. Juga tidak akan selisih dengan penumpang domestik dengan antarabangsa. Tidak hairan kenapa klia2 ini bernilai RM4 billion!!! Infrastrukturnya melebihi lapangan terbang biasa. Namun saya masih rasa KLIA lebih baik dari klia2.

Saya telah berada di pintu pelepasan Q11 sejak dari pukul 2130 (9:30 malam) lagi. Pada pukul 2200 (10:00 malam), diumumkan bahawa penerbangan saya ini mengalami penangguhan dan waktu kemasukan dianjakan dari pukul 2205 (10:05 malam) ke 2225 (10:25 malam). Bermakna penerbangan saya hanya akan berlepas pada pukul 2300 (11:00 malam), waktu yang sepatutnya sudah tiba di Changi!!!

Akhirnya pada jam 2220 (10:20 malam), pintu pelepasan dibuka (kerana pesawat dari Singapura hanya sampai jam 2215 (10:15 malam) dan jam 2255, pesawat berlepas dari landasan utama 3 KLIA.

Pukul 2345, barulah penerbangan TigerAir TR2469 padal 23 Mei 2014 ini mendarat di Changi dan selepas 15 minit baru sampai di pintu ketibaan F33. Sementara menunggu pintu kapal terbang ini dibuka, saya menukarkan kad SIM DiGi Malaysia saya kepada kad kad SIM SingTel Prabayar Hi! yang memang sedia ada pada saya.

02/03/2014 (Sunday)

I was very excited for new adventure so my sleep was not so smooth. Around 0445 or 0500 in dawn I woke up after heard Subuh prayer call. I felt it not like normal, normally at KL, the payer call only been heard around 0545. In my heart, I want to go to the mosque, but this is Indonesia, did not know how danger or not. So I have my prayer at Azmi's house. Azmi's employer, PT Timah which is Indonesian government company is very care for their staff. Beside provide quarters house for their staff, which quite big, equally C class in Malaysian civil service offered, water supply and electricity is free of charge!!! But the supply did not consistent. With the hot climate (because of island or sea climate), I always had shower can be said every pray time, because the water was free...

After solat, at 0600, Azmi asked Pak Nasir and I with his brother, to have breakfast at a stall at the main road. When I arrived at that stall, wow, there were a lot of kuihs! Most of the kuihs were same as be found in Malaysia or more precisely Johor. Epok-epok (or other states called karipap (curry puff), kuih ketayap, cucur badak, village pau and a lot more. Plus, with the main meal like lontong, soto, nasi lemak and many more. Felt like to stay forever here. I ordered lontong, just to want to taste the flavour of Kundur's lontong. Superb...

We ate together with Prayun old statlers, who just back from the mosque. All of them are member of tabligh group and already went to perform hajj. Azmi just said to them that I also a haji. Our conversation became more robusted., from current condition of Makkah and Madinah, Malaysia condition, Sri Petaling, KL's mosque which has became tabligh centre and many more. We talked until we do not aware that time running fast. Azmi asked to back to his home, as to prepare for 5 province journey (for himself and Pak Nasir) and 3 nation "journey" (plus 5 states, huhuhu) for myself. 

As we went back to Azmi's home, I just remembered that on the day before, I forgot to take picture of a big poster about general election of Indonesia. So I took a picture of it which was not very far from the stall, but I managed to take some part of it, because I took it while I sat on a moving motorcycle.

As we arrived at Azmi's home, Yanti and her children have already ready. Luckly, my stuffs also have ready. Just waited for Pak Nasir and Azmi to pack some of their stuffs. The most important were two bicycles of Azmi's which will be used for their journey at Sumatera after that.

After all stuffs have been ready, Azmi and his brother immediately sent Yanti and her children to the junction. At the junction, they will wait for an angkot to bring them to Tanjung Batu town. While waiting Azmi back to his house, Pak Nasir and I tried Azmi's bicycles. It was increased my excitement to follow them, but how could I do, the next day (03rd March 2014), MARA Tower will be officially opened by Prime Minister of Malaysia, and I was selected to be officer in duty, so I needed to came back to KL.

Not long after that, Azmi and his brother arrived and Azmi need to store in one of his motorcycle, if not, it will be taken by Orang Laut. Before we leave, three of us was be taken in a picture as below, thanks to Azmi's brother for this picture.

There was our turn to go the junction. Azmi's brother and I rode the motorcycle, Azmi and Pak Nasir rode the bicycles. I took their picture while we on those vehicles.

When we arrived at the junction, consequently it was an angkot want to pass by, but Azmi immediately waved to the angkot. The bicycles were been put on the roof of the angkot. Before we went to our own destination, we asked Azmi's brother to take our picture as our memorabilia. After that, we said to each other have a great journey. Azmi's family and Pak Nasir went to Tanjung Batu, Azmi's brother and I went to Selat Beliah for Tanjung Balai Karimun.

Azmi's brother and I arrived at Selat Beliah jetty at 0845 am. The next ferry was at 0920 am. We thought we can catched that ferry but counter's clerk said the ticket has already finished, and next ferry will be at 1150 am. So we have to wait. It was OK. I gave money for ticket fare but Azmi's brother was refused to take it. But he like knew, he gave me ferry ticket to me. Alhamdulillah, I can took it as souvenir. This time we took MV Ocean Asia ferry. The ferry fare for Selat Beliah to Tanjung Balai Karimunwas Rp18 thousands (about RM5.40). The insurance was Rp800 (+-24 Malaysian sen) and port tax was Rp1500 (+- 45 Malaysian sen). So, total ticket price for a person was Rp15700 only (+-RM4.72). Then I thought we should waited in the terminal building about a couple of hours, maybe.

At  0900 am, the ferry arrived. Azmi;s brother was very shy man. I suggested to him that we just went out to jetty gate and waited there. My goal was, if there still have empty seat, we can take that ferry. If can, I do not want to wait at the terminal building for long time. In addition, there were some people waited there also. My assumption was true, alhamdulillah we can went into the ferry. I chose to sit at back of the ferry, an open air seats with roof on it, for me felt the original seabreeze. I sat beside a motorcycle, yes a motorcycle, which been taken to Tanjung Balai. It was about 20 minutes, I have very interested journey.

After arrived at Seri Tanjung Gelam People Jetty,we walked to Tanjung Balai International Jetty to buy a ticket to Singapore. Alhamdulillah, I managed to get a Indo Falcon ferry ticket which priced of Rp200 thousands (+-RM60.00). I get a discount off Rp20 thousands (+-RM6.00) because I had already filled up Singapore immigration form, which I keep it a lot in my car at home. This was not included port tax Rp60 thousands (+-RM18.00) which will be paid just before entering departure hall at jetty.

After got the tickets, we went to in front of the jetty to take picture at Proclamation Monument as a sign I has arrived at Pulau Karimun. After that, we went to shops beside People Jetty to buy some souvenir for my family at home. The price was cheap, as example, hijab for prayer sold at RM25 only (can use Malaysian Ringgit). 

I had to say thanks to Azmi's brother because accompanied me until that moment. We separated there, perhaps we will meet again.

My stomach suddenly became hungry, eventhough I had already eaten a plate of lontang early morning. Actually it was just a reason, because I passed by in front of a row of nasi padang restaurants, I became addicted. So i hopped into a restaurants. Maybe because I was alone, the waiter said that I can self service myself. So I took cow's young stomach and young jackfruit with a plate of rice that was been given to me. For drink, i ordered iced water and avocado juice with a little of chocolate. Nice...

Alhamdulillah, my stomach had already fulled enough. It should be filled up because maybe I believe I will not eat until midnight as to catch transportation to arrive at my house in KL. With pice of Rp20 000 (+-RM6.00), for me it was very worth and cheap. I gave Rp30 000 and aslo bought a big and a small bottle of bottled drinking water, and was be given change Rp2000, which is one of Rupiah note that I have not yet.

 Nota Rp 2000 = +- 60 sen Malaysia

After that, I looked at my watch, oh o, there was already 1025 am... Ferry will depart at 1100 am!!! I get rushed to jetty for payment of passenger service charge or easy to call port tax about Rp60 000 (+-RM18.00) and must be paid in Rupiah, so as reminder, PLEASE do not finish your Rupiah, allocate that or you will not depart!!! This tax only be paid on departure only. It was a case just before my turn to pay (at this time, my bag had been scanned for security measure), a Indian Malaysian had already finished his Rupiah and he asked to pay by Malaysian Ringgit. The clerk hesitated (because the rule, port tax only can be paid by Rupiah only, it is stated on a board at that area) and then she said can (to ease the rule, because there was a long que after me, suddenly!) but need to pay RM50! He became angry, but he just paid it. Actually I want to help, but he gave fastly the RM50. The clerk got extra RM32 or about Rp106 000 for her wage that day. After this charge has been paid, a sticker will stick on boarding pass. 

After that, immigration formality. Alhamdulillah, included line in time, within 5 minutes, it done. Still in time. at 1050 am, passengers been called to enter inside MV Falcon 5 ferry. When arrive at ferry door, the boarding pass which have port tax sticker must give it to ferry staff. Quite sad, because I have not take that sticker image. Then I entered into ferry and sat at behind row (tips: this because to ease if you want to go to the toilet and also to go to upstair of the ferry, to see view, some while after the ferry departed, not at time of ferry depart because the rule stated that). 1105 am sharp, ferry departed.

The ferry journey at this time, crossing international shipping lanes. There were a lot of commercial ships cruising along the journey. Sometime, the ferry looked just very near to the ship, alhamdullilah nothing happen, maybe I too worry. 

When the ferry want to arrive at HarbourFront jetty, it cruised just beside Sentosa Island shore. Actually HarbourFront is situated facing Sentosa, where Universal Studio and Resort World Sentosa is situated, At Teluk Blangah, where the HarbourFront is situated, there are a lot of futuristic buildings. Once upon a time a go, this place was Keppel Dock, among largest dry dock in the world. But nowadays it become real estate that developed by Keppel Land.

About a few meters from the jetty, I saw a very big cruise ship Superstar Virgo owned Star Cruise by , was berthing at HarbourFront's cruise ship jetty.

Exact 1340H (1:40 pm Singapore time, which is one hour earlier than Indonesia), MV Falcon 5 finally arrived at jetty number 1 HarbourFront. I went to immigration hall, not far from the jetty. Therefore many people when I was there, but after 10 minutes, all formality settled, because of they open many counters. At last, I got S stamp of Singapore Immigration. S is Singapore Immigration code for seaport checkpoints. Before this, I have already W stamps for Woodlands land crossing checkpoints and T stamps for Tuas land crossing checkpoints. What I still have not is A stamp for airport checkpoint. 

I moved to outside the checkpoint after customs and securities counter, I arrived at concourse of Singapore Cruise Centre  which attached together with HarbourFront shopping complex.

I got around the Singapore Cruise Centre and HarbourFront to take some picture, because this was my first time I been here. Then to familiarise because possibility to back here is high (actually next week of this time, I was back to here, it can be read at Batam with KTMB Train, Ferry & Aeroplane - Self Journey). For information, if want to buy feri tickets, can go to 2nd floor (for Batam Fast) and 3rd floor (for other ferry providers). For ferry departure can go to left hand side and go to right hand side if cruise ship departure.

Beside that, I went to a telecommunication shop to buy Hi! prepaid SIM card from Singapore Telecom (Singtel), which cost SG$10 (+-RM26.00) (actually it cost SG$8 (+-RM20.80) only, but other SG$2 (+-RM5.20) I assumed  that for commission. As my iPhone5 uses nano SIM, then I was been charged another SG$4 (+-RM10.40) to cut my SIM card from mini (normal) SIM card to micro SIM to nano SIM. Huh!!!

The objective I bought the SIM card because to get cheaper communication and to use internet at cheaper cost. There are two more provider at Singapore, which are StarHub and M1, but I chose SIngTel, because it is the best provider.

Eventhough inside this SIM card prestored SG$10 (+-RM26.00), but it leaf only a little more than SG$1because I forgot to off mobile data mode. Actually there are cheaper SingTel data plan. So I had to go to Cheers (like 7-Eleven) to buy reload card (because the Cheers outlest just beside enterence gate of HarbourFront MRT Station.  Cheers only sold SG$20 and higher reload card>. I had to buy it. After that, i took 1 Day Ultimate 2GB unlimited data plan for SG$6.00 (RM15.60).

Next, I went to HarbourFront MRT Station to Kranji MRT to transit to bus heading to Larkin Sentral Bus Terminal at Johor Bahru. MRT ticket price was SG$2.30 (+-RM6.00). The journey took about 1 hour.There are a lot MRT route can be taken. I took a route that required to transit 2 times, first at Outram Park from Northeast lane (purple) to East West lane (green) headed to Jurong East. Then from there to North South lane (red) to Kranji.

A long the journey, I observed that Singapore also experience drought season, it can be seen obviously dried grass from inside MRT train.

As I arrived at Kranji MRT station, I realised that I did not have small change to alight the bus. So I went to convenience store, coincidentally my drinking water had already finished, then I bought a bottle of drinking water priced SG$1.70 (+-RM4.42)!!!  Huh, very expensive!!! I gave SG$5 and got change SG$3.30. I asked to change smaller change. After I received it, I realised that Singapore has change its coin design. I got new 20 cents and SG$1.00.

20 cent Singapura (baru versi 2013) = +- 52 sen Malaysia

SG$ 1.00 (baru versi 2013) = +- RM 2.60

After that, I immediately cross to across bus stop to wait SBS bus numbered 170 with background and red writing. Please do not take bus 170 with red background and blue writing because it only go to Kotaraya Terminal, in the middle of Johor Bahru downtown. There are another 2 more stage bus providers which is SMRT (same company with MRT service) and Causeway Link (Malaysian company). If you wait at MRT station bus stop, you will get buses headed to city centre.

At last at 1515 (3:15 pm), I got the bus and paid SG$1.90 (+-RM5.00) and 10 mintes later, I arrived at Woodlands Checkpoints. All passanger needed to alight to go to immigration and customs counters upstairs. Customs let me go easily. It was not many people eventhough it was an Sunday evening. After my pasport been stamped, I went downstairs to take back the bus. Here, we can take any bus to go to Bangunan Sultan Iskandar (BSI) (JB checkpoint) for immigration formality at Malaysia.

S stamp can be seen (at the edge of Singaporean Immigration arrival stamp, left side black in colour). For departure stamp, green with W coded, means departed at Woodlands Checkpoints.

This is my first time I used BSI by bus. Previously, I drove a car. There were many cars want to enter Malaysia, but more want to enter Singapore. Maybe they just finished shopping at JB. But, since long time ago, Singapore Checkpoint very slow in immigration checking. 

Same as Woodloands, BSI need to go upstairs for imigration and custom formality. There were a lot of opened counters and so do autogate, but I chose manual counter. My intention was to get arrival stamp for nationality but the officer refuse to give it. If want to get Malaysian Immigration stamp in Malaysia passport, BSI is not the place. If any request, they will refused. 

After the procedure, I went to downstair to take my bus back to Larkin Sentral Terminal. It was smooth traffic along the way to Larkin dan after 15 minutes, I arrived at Alrkin at 1640 (4:40 pm).

I searched for ticket to KL, but the 1700 (5:00 pm) ticket had finished. The nearest time left was 19:30 (7:30 pm). After search some more, I got am 1730 (5:30 pm) ticket, but when I want to pay, unfortunately, the tickets clerk just said it just been bought. At that counter, next trip to KL was 2030 (8:30 pm). I disappointed, normally at Larkin, I never expedience like this before. 

Suddenly, a man (unauthorised tickets seller) said, he has ticket to KL at 1730 (5:30 pm). I agreed because do not want to be late (the action that never I did before). The price also a bit expensive, RM40.00 one way (normally RM30.00 only). I took the bas and snapped a picture of ticket, because what I been told, this ticket will be taken by bus staff.

The time already 1730 (5:30 pm), but the bus still had not moved yet, after 20 minutes later, then it moved. I was slept because of tiredness, but alhamdulillah my stomach was not hungry, effected from I ate a lot of Nasi Padang at Tanjung Balai Karimun.

After one and half hour later, the bus arrived at Yong Peng and went out from highway heading to a restaurant. There were a lot of buses stopped here. I just remembered that I have not performed yet Zohor and Asar prayer. Immediately I did it as jamak qasar and after finished I waited for a moment for Maghrib and Isyak. After 5 minutes, the prayer called been heard and I did my prayer. After solat, I ate some food in the restaurant and took back the bus. The bus moved back to KL at 1940 (7:40 pm). 

Finally, at 2245 (10:45 pm), the bus arrived at TBS and 30 minute later, I arrived at home after rode my motorcycle. That was my journey.
