If u are a nature lover, I recommend u to visit this place..Sepilok Laut. A short free trip to this place was given to us (all the industrial training students of SFD) so that we may spread the word about this place...;-) so here am I doin the promotion...hehe...
Sepilok Laut Reception Center or SLRC is located in the Kabili Sepilok Virgin Jungle Reserve, 5 km from the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Center. (In case u don’t know where’s Sepilok…..Sepilok is located in Sandakan City, in Sabah….) U can reach the place (err...Sepilok Laut...not Sandakan eh) by using boat or doing hiking from the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Center. The hiking will take 90 to 120 minutes.
The reception center was located in the jungle…so there’s no clean water from the pipe…they use the rain water as their water supply…and for the rest, they hope from the river. So we’ve got to bring our own mineral water during that visit. No electric supply too…they use generator to supply the electric power to the rest house. And sorry sir… no telephone line too! (except for home telephone)….. but…wait a minute…u can get the telephone line if u go to the watch tower at that place…
mm…yaa…still remember the nite of that visit….all the youngsters gathered there….just to reply sms and do some calling…haha…it was quite fun and nice that time…haha…everybody was making fuss wanted to reply sms. When no more sms to reply, we talked and laughed…my sis and another friend (yea…Joyce’s and Joy’s lil’ sis’) ‘sempat’ to dance ‘lagi’…..Pocho-pocho dance….eish…funnylah that song…I wonder why people can love that song??? (But I think that song can be a very good aerobics song…kan?)
Sepilok Laut is suitable for those who love the nature…. It’s a very suitable place if you want to do some study or research about the trees, plants, nature….or anything about jungle. The only activity that I most enjoyed there was the monkey surveying activity. We did the surveying from the boat….but it’s very hard to a single monkey there….very shylah they…I’ve managed to see once only…so sad…’tak sempat’ to take picture ‘pun’….
so if u are a nature lover...u should consider Sepilok Laut as one of ur
must-visit places..:-)
