Medicine & society..

Salam,

This is not really a honeymoon posting!! quoted from one of my friend. hurmmm, I have to agree with that.We are now reach the TENSE stage as a lot of assignments to be done and report due date with presentations will be after holiday(Now is the 6th week.7th and 8th week will be the presentation and evaluation week)

UKM student complex at Tanjung Karang


One of our group discuccion regarding specific Survey on the villagers..



However, for me,I experienced some interesting and colorful experience with this posting. First of all, it explains my curiosity of how health care system been manage in a district and kampong area till the state and national level. Our group is special because there are two Japanese (Tomomi and Mariko) students staying with us since 1st week until 5th week . We had fun with them and learn from each other about Japanese language, knowledge on Japan health care and even cooking..

The place we are posted to is Tanjung Karang. It is quite boring cause we are trapped in the complex and only go out for food or activities. However, i'm too occupied with activities and assignment to bother with it.

I like the fact that i have the time to jog and experienced the nature more..I love the evening scene during my jogging time at the student's complex. There are lots of herds of birds flying home to their nest. Another sceneric view is the muddy beach 30 minutes walk from our complex or (5 minutes drive). It will be nice if you can see the sunset by the beach.

There are some interesting places that i haven't yet get to explore. So far, i've experienced Ikan bakar at Jeram. The restaurant is by the muddy beach and have nice panoramic view.The price is quite cheap too. I've been to kayaking at Sg Sireh (the BEST activity so far)and took pictures at paddy field of sekincan. Not to forget a few episodes of Kerepek shopping at Sekincan.
