Dropped Aaron at the bus station after lunch. It has been several years since I last dropped by this main bus station at Medan Gopeng. What greeted us was the dimness, I could say it was extremely "dark" at the parking lot. The florescent lights were in poor conditions due to the vast area. One had to be very careful in this parking area, not of muggers but of being tripped over by those "strings" or dropped right into the drains leading to the bus counters. Gosh... you will get what I mean when you go visit this station ..... all I can say is... Ipoh will definitely lose a lot of marks rating in this bus station!
I didn't snap any pictures of the parking lot... no use.. cos it was too dark... what comes out might be some black pictures.. lol... much darker than this picture below...
much darker than this picture!
passengers waiting for the bus...

ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
Omg, and its the main bus station?? >< looks horrible!
ReplyDeleteThat's not the worst yet, Claire... Come to Taiping bus terminal (not Kamunting's) to see the most disgraceful ugliness of Malaysia bus station.
ReplyDeleteAiyor...so terrible! Hey, my...I mean your son gone back to Singapore already kah? When's the next trip? Come lah...come to Sibu - you fly from KL, he flies from JB...meet here.
ReplyDeleteveronica: thanks !
ReplyDeleteisaac: this is from the outside.. where we wait for the bus..
pam: i dont want to see.... i can imagine liow..
stp: yeah..flew back by AA... what to do.. no leave yet..
Malaysia builds then end of story.
ReplyDeleteMaintenance is never a priority.
+Ant+
aiyo so bad state now in the bus station ah? cham lor.. I used to go when it's nearly built..
ReplyDeleteSis... Next time take air Asia la! Btw, maybe it's time to bring Aaron out for makan in s'pore !
ReplyDeletegratitude: :)
ReplyDeletecynthia: sigh...
chrisau: he took AA but have to travel to LCCT ..
aiyuh...really bad wo...
ReplyDeletewooo haunted station?
ReplyDeleteThe last picture shows so much promise of what could be. I'm sure some nice plants that grew well in shade would be such an improvement.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting me and leaving a message so I knew you were there. :)
amy: can say like that..
ReplyDeletemedie: hahhaaa...
grace: thanks for coming by..
it's a shame, isnt it? the building itself actually looks very nice, i guess another few more months from now, that area will look even worse..
ReplyDeleteOMG, you were memang there. I think i bumped into you this afternoon. I was there too to catch a bus at 1.30pm today. I saw a lady with a cool sunglass, walking towards a red Vios with a friend. I takut salah orang, that's why didn't greet you >.< anyway, Gopeng bus station is seriously in need of a makeover. It's quite run down, and the carpark area is dark too..
ReplyDeleteI think most of the bus stations are like that-dirty! :/
ReplyDeletei don't quite like the bus station too..looks very unsystematic.
ReplyDeleteLooks like we just found our location for the next big budget horror film.
ReplyDeleteHaha
aiyoh, that is just so an unpleasant view.. haha!! i agree with SmallKucing, send it to The Star and maybe you could win RM50~~ :p
ReplyDeleteHi Reana, Holy Smoke! The bus terminal manager must have eye problems....should be terminated for having such a dirty state terminal.
ReplyDeleteI guess the country even though beautiful, its the people, like the manager here who spoil things.
Now with h/p cameras, the more reason to be clean and tidy, with Reanaclare on the prowl, ha ha.
Stay safe, keep well.
Lee.
Wait! Aaron just GOT there!!!
ReplyDeleteIt has been ages since I went to that bus station too! Used to go there quite often during my college days.
ReplyDeleteDon't remember it being that bad, but knowing the "typical M'sian" maintenance, I'm not surprised!
Aiyo... chamz, Cikgu is luring again. Hahaha...
ReplyDeleteI think ah, Claire, Ipoh is not the only place that's like this. :( Pudu oso dirty!
HAHAHA, Penang under PR is so much better now, i was at the KOMTAR this othere, a place that i used to loathe going,,To my surpise, it was all nicely maintain and very comfy already,(minus some reno that's being carried out) the bus station looks so geng, somemore with LCD screen showing the ETA of buses.
ReplyDeleteYou see sometimes CHANGE is good, and the good news is here in Penang, we will keep that CHANGE,, if only you knew what i meant? hahhaha
Ewww... no maintenance/house keeping ka?
ReplyDeleteThe first two pics are fine...not the last pic...
ReplyDeleteBeen there once. Not a memorable one too
ReplyDeletePerhaps, you should let the Opposition know about this. After all, opposition main job is to "point" which is quite effective.
ReplyDeletelena: cannot expect much..
