Twin's Pangkor Trip

Its very interesting , soo..sooo...unfortunate that the beauty of Pangkor Island was too good to be true


---

This trip actually was sooo tiring. furthermore it is not planned.
The most tiring part is when we lining up at Lumut Terminal Jetty  to catch the ferry to the island.
 Damn crowded, hot, tiring and do not be questioned about the smell as well.

There, we rented two cars for arental which is RM80 each. 

Swimming in the sea and go round the island several times.
The weather was damn hot!!!

There,we visited among the popular site in Pangkor.

-Historical Tiger Rock-

Batu Bersurat (Tiger Rock) is a huge granite boulder that is located close to the Dutch Fort, in Pangkor Island. The etchings on this particular Batu Bersurat - which means inscribed stone - shows the picture of a tiger carrying away a child, two round-shaped leaves, and the letters, "If Carlo 1743" and "VOC" which probably refers to the Dutch East India Company.There are several theories as who who did the inscription. According to one, it was the work of soldiers in memory of a Dutch dignitary's son who was snatched by a tiger 1743. One more sinister version of the tale claimed that the Malays and Bugis kidnapped and murdered the boy in revenge of the ill treatment of the the Dutch to the locals. The rock measures about 10.7m long and 4.6m wide and stands at 4.3m tall, and today, there is a pavillion built to shelter it.
