Immigresen Kelana Jaya ~ Line Khas untuk Passport Bayi

1st entry for our travel log..would like to start with the Immigration Process aka buat passport untuk anak2ku..FYI, we just came back from Krabi last Saturday..travelling with 1 toddler & 1 infant..later nanti akan ku huraikan travel log kami sepanjang kami di sana..

Before depart, kite settlekan dulu perihal passport anak2..especially Emir yang baru nk buat passport..Process tetap sama macam entry yang dulu2..Klik Sini..cuma requirement baru 2014, mesti gamba background putih macam di Sini..tapi klu x silap..x boleh lagi bawa gambar sendiri, perlu tangkap gambar di Pejabat Imigresen directly (mohon check directly dengan pihak Imigresen yer!)

Kami buat Passport di Imigresen Kelana Jaya, Plaza Glomac..actually ni bukan 1st attempt..before tu dah try pegi PKNS, Shah Alam hari Ahad (Imigeresen tertentu beroperasi juga pada hari Sabtu & Ahad..boleh check waktu perkhidmatan dengan official website Imigeresen)..sampai sana dalam pukul 8.30 pagi (bangun awal, kluarnye lambat jugak..almaklumlaa dengan anak2 kecik..itu ini, menangis teriak sana sini pasti ler schedule perjalanan akan delay..huhu)...Sampai2 kaunter ambil2 no..turn ada lagi 100++ orang lagi..mak aii!! Bertabah jugak kekonon nak tunggu, g breakfast bagai, tengok2 x sampai2 jugak turn..lepas ada akak sorang ni yang tunggu dari pukul 8.00 pagi (dah tunggu 2 jam) still x smp turn lagi, weollss surrender..angkat bendera putih..mari cuba di lain kali..hhuhu

Model gebus kami

2nd attempt, kitorng kebetulan dapat info yang kat KJ klu bawak infant / kids / orang tua / OKU ada line special yang lebih kontot gilirannye..so, bersemangat wajalaahh kami ke sana..

Alhamdulillah, info yang kami dapat betul..Lebih kurang 6 orang in a que..tapi tempat tu memanglaa ramainye manusia...serabuts pn adee...naseb baek bawak budak, dapat cepat sikit...tapi PLS TAKE NOTE yer...katanye dekat semua kaunter Imigresen pon memang sepatutnye ada facilities sebegini..tapi kite kene tanye dekat adik / abang manis yang jaga kaunter tu tentang facilities tersebut.."Saya bawak budak2 / anak kecik, ada fast lane kan?" huhuhu...just in case diorng x perasan application kite tu untuk baby2 walaupon dh dikelek di tepi pinggang,,eheheh...

~ No giliran kitorang..x percaya?? Percayalaaa..hhihi ~

~ Makcik & anak2 makcik terpaksa tunggu kt luar..dalam sesak ngan manusia..huhu ~

1 lagi yang kite nk tepuk tangan for Imigresen KJ...mereka ada menyediakan Bilik Menyusu khas untuk BF baby! Friendly breastfeeding..I liookeeee!.. Walaupon kemudahan yang asas tapi cukuplaa untuk bagi kite privacy untuk menyusukan anak...Pitam klu nak kene BF baby in public kt Imigresen ni..nak cari tempat duduk pon payah..inikan pula nk mengambil ruang yang selesa untuk BF..uuhu..Tapi sy salute juge dengan rakyat Malaysia..ramai yang prihatin..tengok makcik yg agak2 vogue ni dukung baby, Alhamdulillah, ramai yang offer tempat duduk mereka..x kira kaum...Thumbss Up!!

~ Bilik Menyusu aka Baby's room yang berada di corner itu yer.(Tgk muka orang ramai yang kebosanan menunggu.huhu) ~

~ Kemudahan dalam bilik tersebut..bolehlaa..Alhamdulillah! ~

Lebih kurang 2 jam, selesai urusan pendaftaran passport..Emir totally baru, Chempaka tukar gambar, since passport dia buat 3 thn lepas dengan gamba yang sangat baby..eheheh...(Imigresen required passport kanak2 di tukar gambar as stated dalam web Imigeresen kt Sini, 

Perkara 10. Maklumat Am (d) :- 

Tiada lagi kemudahan memasukkan butir-butir kanak-kanak dalam pasport ibu atau bapa. Kanak-kanak (termasuk bayi yang baru dilahirkan) perlu memohon secara berasingan dan ibu bapa boleh memohon untuk menukar gambar setelah bayi meningkat usia 2 tahun ke atas disertai dengan 2 keping gambar bersaiz 35mm x 50mm berlatar belakang putih tanpa bayang., Sijil Lahir dan hadir bersama-sama anak berkenaan di Pejabat Imigresen.

Untuk collection, kami ambil di hari lain kerana kebetulan masa tu, urusan tukar gambar passport kanak2 x boleh dapat pada hari yang sama sebab kene endorsed ape ntah..tapi klu ari2 biasa sepatutnye siap on the dot jer..

Ad-Hoc Plan @ Gold Coast Morib Water Theme Park Resort

Recap balik last year nyee aktiviti coti2 Msia..we've stayed at GOLD COAST MORIB WATER THEME PARK RESORT on 23rd - 24th May 2013. Ingat2 balik ni memang plan yang sangat spontaneous by us..On d way back from office while my hubby's driving d car..sembang2 kosong pikir mana nak bawak anak2 jalan2 since that week cuti agak panjang, Friday till Sunday..so me sebut laaa Petting Zoo laa, Genting laa, Zoo Negara laa n soo on..then my hubby cakap rather tempat2 camtu whynot g tdo hotel je...then trus terpikir Gold Coast, call hotel terus book..masa tu dekat pukul 7.00p.m dah tu..balik2 capai2 baju dengan pantas & tungtas..packing trus gerak..

Kitorang sampai Hotel lebih kurang dekat pukul 10.30p.m..ikot jalan from Putrajaya-KLIA menghala Morib..dalam 1 jam perjalanan..Seingat aku, we all bayar dalam RM350 / night / per room...Rates termasuk breakfast for 2 pax + 2 entry tickets to Theme Park (unlimited time)..Chempaka still x kene charge, so FOC...! ehehe..

Our room dapat facing Theme Park, as per our request..view menawan...Chempaka sampai2 jer memang teruja tengok theme park kat bawah, nak mandi katanya tengah2 malam tu..huhu..(saspen mak!) Bilik boleh dikatakan luas...2 katil super single then kitorg combine kan so agak selesa untuk kami 4 beranak ini..hehhe..Dalam bilik air ada jacuzzi tau! jgn maraaaa...agak kagum juga di situ..Yang lain dun expect too much..furniture nye agak lama sket (sebenarnye lebih kepada kurang maintain) and TV pon bukan laa yang flat screen ala2 hotel 5 bintang..But for me the room condition tu boleh laa diterima cuma banyak lagi upgrading work boleh dilakukan oleh pihak pengurusan hotel.

~ Facing Theme Park...Anak dara dh x saba nk terejun..~

~ View from room...nampak x anak beranak iteww? ~

~ Private Jacuzzi in a room..lomantikklooo~

~ Tido nyenyak...(Aikk..keciknyee Meme!..huhu) ~

Next day before bawak anak2 terjun tiruk kat theme park, wajib breakfast dulu..tapi MasyaAllahhh..ramainye orang...space agak sempit n orangnye pulak ramai..tapi mungkin faktor time kami turun for bfast tu adalah peak time..so kenelaa berAmazing Race ngan rakyat jelata yang lain..huhuhu...

The Theme Park for us was great..scale x berapa besar tapi tak juga kecik..me memang agak x prefer scale yang besar mcm Sunway Lagoon tu sebab budak still kecik, jadi x perlu pool2 yang Extravaganza sangat..Kat sini pool ada laa dalam 4-5 part (if I'm not mistaken...patut amek pic every inch of the theme park!huhu)..ada slides yang nampak agak menyeronokkan..ada macam river..So, for me NOT BAD AT ALL! For family vacay with kids / teenagers, with medium range of budget, this place could be good options...sayang kami x dapat explore habis2an this area, x pergi beach and hunting2 kedai2 makan kt kawasan sekitar...lepas mandi2 theme park, check-out, laju2 jer balik..lagipun Emir masa ni baru 4 bulan..x berani lagi lasak2 ngan dia..hihi

Gambar Passport 2013..Latar Belakang Putih

I remember last time I've posted about "Pasport Untuk Bayi Anda" di SINI, back in year 2011, one of the requirement is 2 keping gambar terbaru berlatar belakang biru muda (berukuran 3.5x5sm) kan...but recently (not sure the exact effective date) Jabatan Imigresen Malaysia has change this requirement as it MUST be WHITE BACKGROUND. Sooo...as we need to make a passport for Emir & change Chempaka's passport's picture..we have taken new passport picture yesterday...

Chempaka & Emir's 2013 Passport Picture

NOTE :  

As per Imigresen requirement, parents boleh memohon untuk menukar gambar passport bayi sedia ada setelah bayi meningkat usia 2 tahun ke atas. (last time gambar passport Chempaka while she was 6/7 months..so its time to change..perhaps she's totally look different..tembunss..hikhik)

Actually punyalah payah nak amek gambar Chempaka as she could not remain still and focus to the camera (kekadang bahu senget, buat peace, mata pandang sinis2 & etc.) huhu..Bila baca requirement by imigeresen, requires that mata mesti terbuka n mulut mesti tertutup..barulaa faham kenapa Auntie Kedai Gambar tu bersungguh2 ulang tangkap balik gamba Chempaka sampai dapat pose yang rasa boleh lepas.,.(berpeluh jugak..huhu)

Nasib baik Emir rilex jerr..2 snap dah dapat...siap sengih lagi..hensemlaa gamba passport dia... :D

While as for me pon x dapat nk snap pic semalam as we need to wear BLACK / DARK color hijab (if bertudung) untuk tangkap gambar passport (as per Imigeresen requirement)

 Below is the current requirement based on the Imigeresen Website :-

1.2 Kepingan gambar bersaiz 35mm x 50mm berlatar belakang PUTIH tanpa bayang

Balik Kampung / Travel – Toddler’s Packing Checklist

Musim2 raya dah dekat ni, kene wat persiapan untuk travel bersama si kenit. Just want to share packing checklist provided by Babycenter before we go for travel…Tak nak nnt ada bende2 yang tertinggal…

Diapers / Nappies
Bring extras in case of emergencies or delays. (Pada saya ok jer klu bawak stock yg secukupnya sepanjang travel utk optimumkan luggage klu setakat balik kampong. Klu x ckp boley cari kat local supermarket. Tapi klu pergi tempat yang alien pada kite, better bawak lebey…especially klu pegi oversea..mungkin price kat sana lebey mahal daripada biasa!!)

Blanket / SelimutBring at least one for comfort, shade and warmth. (Antara stuff yang sgt penting..takut baby sejuk and x comfortable)

Resealable plastic bagsPack some medium ones for stashing dirty nappies, clothes and bibs. (Spare 1 maybe dah cukup).

Baby wipes / Tissues

Bawak yang small size for for travel purpose.

Toddler bath wash and shampoo

Juga sila bawak travelling kit….agak bulky and space consume to our luggage klu nk bawak botol2 yg besar itu…especially klu nk naik flight…sgt x digalakkan!!

Toys and booksYour child's favorites, plus several new toys for surprises along the way. Bring sturdy toys that don't have easy-to-lose parts. (Sgt penting juga…untuk bagi toddlers engage dengan sesuatu yg dia suke..klu x memang kita payah nak handle..Klu yg ni xde, may be bley guna video2 / apps dlm iPhone untuk distract diorng)

ClothesOne to two outfits per day. Denim and dark colours are good for hiding dirt and stains. Prepare for all weathers by dressing your child in layers. (Ini mmg laa perlu..Klu plan nk pergi bercuti time winter, make sure ada baju salin extra and sweater yg tebal secukupnye. Ari tu time pegi Melbourne pon jenuh lapis2kan baju Chempaka supaya dia x sejuk..tapi disebabkan dia dah start muntah, stock baju mmg laa agak critical…so, klu x ckp jugak, terpaksa laa sopping di sana yer..!!)

Swimming costume
Lightweight and easy to pack, you never know when it will come in handy. (Bley jugak bawak sbb mana tau time2 raya ni, nak pegi mandi manda plak dengan sepupu sepapat yang ada..)

Bibs, bowls, forks and spoons

Penting…!! Klu balik kampong xpe kot x bawak, tapi klu pegi travel bercuti, jgn laa tinggal..susah nk feed baby nnt..tapi ari tu time bercuti ke Melbourne, sy hanya bawak spoon & small container..senang sbb ada tutup..bila travel, susah nk cari tempat nk basuh2..so pakai container sng, tutup jer, simpan dulu..nnt dah smp hotel / accommodation, baru basuh..

Sun hat and sun screen (with sun protection factor of 20 or more)

Hmm..pada saya topi mmg penting..klu pegi mana2 mmg jarang tinggal topi..biasa pegi tempat terdedah, cuaca x menentu..so hat will be handy..!!

Beakers and bottles
Encourage your toddler to drink plenty of liquids to avoid dehydration, especially when flying or in hot weather (Biasenye nk minimumkn luggage just bawak botol susu jer, tapi klu vroom vroom naik kete, mmg angkut jer dalam bakul susu chempaka)

Snacks
Try breadsticks, rice biscuits, fruit (dried or fresh), cereal bars and packets of dry cereal. Bring more than you think you'll need, as snacks can distract a grouchy toddler. Plus, you may have travel delays (Sgt penting!! Slalu standby biscuits…..Masa dalam flight pon better standby..salah 1 cara nk distract baby and kadang2 alas perut before dia dapat makan proper meal..)

Nightlight
For nighttime nappy changes (X perlu..huhu)

Socket protectors and other safety equipment
For toddler-proofing your room or apartment (X perlu jugee..huhu)

Travel cot / Tilam
Not all accommodation supplies cots. You'll probably need to take cot sheets, too. (Biasanye klu untuk travel pakai kereta ni, mmg saya akan angkut tilam chempaka..tapi yg for travelling size, bley lipat2..sbb nnt klu pegi kat rumah yg kita x biasa, x tau ape nk expect…ada tilam untuk dia so, mmg dah x risau..klu pergi beraya rumah sedara mara pon dah x risau and x yah susahkan diorng nak kluarkan tilam bagai)

Car seat for travel by car, plane, train, or bus
It can double as a toddler seat, too. (Recommended…)

Collapsible pushchair
Lightweight, convenient, and can be stored in the overhead lockers on a plane. (Perlu..!! Senang nk g jalan mana2 nanti…baby pon xdelaa restless sgt..ada tempat dia nk tido and rehat..klu pegi bercuti, ingat bawak raincover sekali..takut cuaca x menentu..at least kita dah prepare..)

Packing Tips

·  Start preparing to pack a few weeks before you travel. Keep an ongoing list of items to bring, or put items to one side as you think of them

·  Use a baby bag with a waterproof lining and a shoulder strap

·  Pack an extra shirt or top for yourself in your hand luggage

·  Prevent leaks by packing medicines and toiletries in re-sealable plastic bags

·  Bring a square of plastic or a nappy changing mat for nappy changes

·  Keep an energy-boosting snack handy for yourself

·  Bring your camera and plenty of film/digital memory cards

·  Bring a clip-on reading light so you can read without disturbing your bab

Apa ada dengan Tanjung Dawai???? Heheheh...That's the destination we heading to next week for my brother's Solemnization.....I've been here previously during my studies maybe in 2003 / 2004 (can't really remember..eheh..urat dah banyak putus)...What I can remember its a Fisherman Village which the main income for the villagers here come from the sea...From my google search, its located 30km from Sungai Petani which I think this is the nearest hotel you can found here if you plan to stay overnight...otherwise, can try to search a Homestay in Tg. Dawai itself...

Pantai Merdeka

If I would recall, from Tg. Dawai, there's also a boat services & jetty to get to Pantai Merdeka, an island where you can see straightaway from Tg. Dawai....and there is like a bazaar kot..where you can buy the local products such as shrimp paste, "kopok leko", dried fish & etc....pastu, ada banyak IKS kot along the local road from Sg. Petani tu Tg. Dawai (almaklumlaa..dulu pegi as student for research & survey..so the IKS is a MUST STOP for us..hehe) full review nnt akan disambung once we got back from there...ehehhehehe...
