What's across Tekong???
-
For those avid trekkers/hikers in Pulau Tekong. Have you been to the eastern pier or the eastern end of reclaimed land and look into malaysia?
I have been wondering what that "developed" area is. There is this developed buildings that looked like a resort.
Does anybody know what place is this? my guess is pengelih or benglukor.
just curious, because my 8X binoculars ain't enough to figure out what that is. haha. -
have been there...
looks like a naval base leh... -
a naval base in the strait of johore? can't be.
-
or izzit juz a docking place for ships?Originally posted by YI:a naval base in the strait of johore? can't be.
cos i rem seeing abt 2 or 3 battle ships there...
not the big shps though... -
its a port
-
Hmm... i dun mean a shore structure. its more inland and built on a gentle slope...
from the eastern pier "jetty" its at the half-right... its an area of beige buildings with dull orange roofs.
do you recall the hill with a "tower" on it? is at the foot of this hill. -
Correct me if i am wrong... could it be Sebana Cove Resort?
That seems to be the most probable..... but based on a "tourist" map (which is not accurate).... sebana cove resort is quite inside and could not been seen from shore...... correct me. -

while your men are resting, borrow your CSM/OC's Rover and wonder about. some inaccessible areas have to be hiked. e.g. the plantations at eastern end of reclaimed land. -
I've been there - its where you stamp your passport, when you enter malaysian waters (I was fishing there). There is a small base for the Malaysian navy/police as well.Originally posted by Ponders:Hmm... i dun mean a shore structure. its more inland and built on a gentle slope...

Across Tekong, you can see Pengerang. Near the jetty, you can see a naval base belonging to Malaysia. The naval base was newly built, forgot how long along liao, should be less than 5 years or 5 years if I'm not wrong. At the place, you will find a lot of kampungs.

Have u guys been to rocky hill ?
Antenna farm ?
On the top, i still remembered i can see a white tower across the sea over at
the other side.
Does it rings a bell ? -

It's the Malaysian Army's FIBUA practice area. Made to look like a Singaporean HDB estate.

Anybody wanting to know more can actually hire a boat and go there, since you have to stop there and stamp your passport. You can bring your bikes and cycle there as well - a number of Singaporeans do that on weekends.

So I wonders what's their purpose of doing that?Originally posted by Xfr8dog:It's the Malaysian Army's FIBUA practice area. Made to look like a Singaporean HDB estate.
By the way does SAF have the similar practice area only that it is make to look like a Malaysian residential area? -
