Team 56, Treasure Hunt KK City Tourism







Treasure Hunt organizes by DBKK is back. This year we are joining again and it’s a good feeling to be back. I myself attend the briefing in Dewan Tabung Haji Sembulan. This year goodies are very good, we have X Pac prepaid given plus hand band.

As usual, we participate in this hunt without much preparation. We just go through some simple questions before the racing by hoping we can answer the questions. There are 4 legs in the hunt and the first leg we complete it within the time frame (1 hours and 30 minute). We stuck in the second leg whereby we have to locate clue from the crowded Gaya Market. We spent 1 hour there just to solve 5 questions. This is the turning point of our “main tembak” journey. After we do the challenge in Celcom Wawasan Plaza we straight to Double Six Memorial in Sembulan. We are instructed to take picture there. The rest of the team posing with their best with “Sabah Ethnic” attire and “weapons”. We use umbrella as weapon, newspaper as a “Tanjak” and the goodies bag as a “sarong”. Quite funny when we think back, but we don’t have much choice.


After that we proceed to Kepayan, Lido, Lintas, Damai, Iramanis, Inanam and Jalan Sulaman to locate the answers for the Treasure Hunt clue. All the answer in this is area we “main tembak” only because we don’t have much time to think already. We reach Karambunai at 2.39pm which 10 minutes early (we flag off at 7.49am).

We did not wait long for the prize presentation as we know we will not win anything. By 6.15pm we are on our way home.

To Juicyana Jerome, Happy Birthday to you. We forget to wish your birthday that day (24 Feb). To Team 27, congratulation to Flora because your team won a prize. See you all on 22 Feb 2009 for the next Treasure Hunt.

KBP ZON 1 Babagon



I involve in Christian Youth Development in Zon 1 Babagon area where I am the coordinator for this area. Talking about youth development in term of coming to church, participate in seminars or participate in Parish level activities is the hardest. The youth simply ignore it.

As a coordinator I want youth in my area to be actively involve in the church activities but they seems to go on their own way. We do have youth joining our activities when they feel it exciting. If not you will not receive a good reception.

I try to be more dynamic in planning activities. I realize that any activities should be balance whereby not to much on spiritually but non spiritually as well. Last year activates we went to beach and play fustal as start.

This year will be another challenge for me and my committee to plan activities. It a challenge and we like it.

Treasure Hunt in Nexus Karambunai

Since this is my 3rd time participating this Treasure Hunt, we are aming good placement compare to the previous year. Previous year we lost due to lack of Treasure Hunt experiance as well as to arrange the time properly.
I think this event is good for people around Kota Kinabalu. Previous participants also coming all the way from KL and Sarawak. If there is more Treasure Hunt competition, more better it is. In KL, Treasure Hunt is a common event and people are eager to participate. Its enjoying "mah".
At least there is 4 or 5 Treasure Hunt per year will stimulate people interest in this event.

Wars in the world.

Last night i was watching the news and its sad to see the war in Africa, Iraq as well as Israel and the Palestinan. Its sad too that innocent people suffer just because somebody want to stand on ther ideology.
Can we make the world a better place to stay?
