Trip to Temburong District. Last trip from BEACA

The meet point for this activity was at shibie's parking area, as usual, we are ready by 5.50am and wait for the others and the bus to come. We went to Kianggeh, where our lecturer,DR.Irene and DR.Asmah waiting us. We are going to use Speedboat to Temburong.

The evaluation for BEACA for this semester was Temburong. We have learn so much,and gain experiences from previous activities, Jungle tracking and sailing,so now it's time for us to use all that and teamwork for the last activity,Temburong.

We first arrived at Temburong and having our breakfast at restaurant to equipped ourself some energy for the long trip. After finished the breakfast,we went into the bus guide by a Murut girl name Cecelia binti Yusof who is actually a local people there. She guide us from Bangar to Ulu Temburong and till the rest of the trip.

We bought rubber shoes from a small shop on the way to Ulu Temburong, The shoes are useful as it can help us from getting slipped. We arrived at the Ulu Temburong and pack our stuff in plastic bag as precaution.We also alert to use life jacket before get in the long boat. As previous trip have taught us many things. Also,to be prepare of the strong current river.

As we know, Temburong was rich with beautiful flora and fauna. I called it the green district. We went along through the Temburong River. All i can see is nature. The stones (Batu kelikir) along the river, which made the river current change. I was surprise that i can see a very tall and big tree there,which i only find that tree during the big tree's trip.

The most experiencing moment was getting on the "canopy walk" climbed up the small scalfoldings stairs and walk on the bridges. IT WAS AWESOME!! yet we can see beautiful view of Temburong green forest. The experience getting on top of the "Canopy walk" was so unforgettable.

After all of us have went up the canopy walk,we went back to the boat for another stop at Long House. Before that,we stopped at the waterfall,located at the river bank. It was so beautiful and refreshing. We took a quick bath to enjoy the cold water and eat our lunch there.

We stopped at long house to learn more about life of local people there. They share one roof with about 10 families. Most of them are the pure iban. Iban was one of the local people in temburong,besides Murut and Dusun. They expert in making basket and mat using bamboo.For sale for tourist and locals. They are still with their traditional life even some of them, the young generations have migrate to Bandar for educations and works. We also stopped at BANGAR for some fruit and refreshment.d price

To sum up,there is so many differences between Bandar Seri Begawan and Temburong. I can say Temburong was a place where all the stress went out. Away from noises of traffic and busies day. Also there was so many things that can be do to improved our economy, Temburong can be one of the main tourist attraction and local in Brunei. Yes, i agree there was so many things that can be appreciate in Brunei. That all bruneian should know about it. Everything that i learned from this trip, i will share with all my friends members. For their next holiday venues. Afterall, the trip was successful and experiencing.
