5th job as tourist guide - 2 days 1 night SG - Klang transfer

Today is my fifth job as tourist guide. It is a Singapore-Malaysia Klang transfer job. It is a 2 days 1 night transfer job for Singapore tourists who attend to Bai Shui Sheng Di’s 20th anniversary of Commemorate Thanks-giving Congregation of Enlightenment at IDCC Shah Alam. The Singapore tourists pick up point at Singapore at 10.30am and arrive Sultan Abu Bakar Complex – Malaysia Second Link Customs at 11.30am. I reach Sultan Abu Bakar Complex – Malaysia Second Link Customs at 10.45am. I heard from my tourist guide friend there that their Singapore tourists group which departed from Singapore at 8.30am is just arriving here. She has been waiting there for almost 3 hours. I predict my Singapore tourists group to reach here at least after 12pm. Fortunately, their journey to Sultan Abu Bakar Complex – Malaysia Second Link Customs quite smooth that around 11.30am, they are already reach and cleared the customs procedures. They give me a call after they cleared their customs procedures. They are enter through behind customs entry which normally only operate when there are too congested for the main customs entry during holiday or peak hours. I reach up to them and direct them to main entry waiting area to wait for our bus to come. We have change the bus instead of pre-arranged tour bus because of unexpected accident to the bus early morning while on the journey to Sultan Abu Bakar Complex – Malaysia Second Link Customs. The 30 seated bus change to 40 seated bus. Fortunately my tourists group are understandable.

The bus reached Sultan Abu Bakar Complex – Malaysia Second Link Customs at 11.45am, and without delay I let my Singapore tourists onboard to the bus and start our journey to Klang. Our first stop is stop at Yong Peng vegetarian restaurant for our lunch. When reaching Kulai, we see a very long jammed on the road. We took old lane to bypass the road congestion because there is bus accident on the highland near Sedenak since early morning. The old road from Kulai to Simpang Renggam exit take 1 hour of journey. We reach Yong Peng vegetarian restaurant at 2pm. I have my lunch together with the Singapore tourists. The vegetarian food is quick nice especially its fried hokkien mee.

We continue our journey to Klang after our lunch at 3pm. The whole journey is quick smooth without any rain on the way. We only see the wet road condition for few highway section when we crossing it. We reach Klang about 6.30pm. We direct go to Restaurant Miao San Yuan for our dinner. Restaurant Miao San Yuan is a vegetarian restaurant which is quick popular there and it is near to our hotel. This time I eat with bus driver at Mamak shop. After our dinner, we go to hotel for check in and rest at 8pm. The hotel check-in procedure takes around 30 minutes to complete full check-in for all the tourists. This is due to individuals booking. If the hotel booking is done through license travel agency, the hotel check-in is just required the tourists passport details listing which will definitely shorten the hotel check in time a lot. For this trip, no hotel is booked for tourist guide, only accommodation allowance is given. I decided to take same hotel with tourists for easier transfer tomorrow. Fortunately there is 1 hotel room with 2 single beds left just nice for us. The bus driver shares the room with me. My first day job ended here smoothly. Not forget to mention that the Singapore tourist’s organizer has arranged with counter staff to perform morning call at 8am the next day morning.

The second day started with my breakfast which I bring together while I am on job assignment – white bread and Melilea organic powder. After 2 slices of bread and Melilea organic powder, the required nutrient and calorie needed for the day is fully contained. Melilea organic powder and white bread is a must bring food in any of my trips and jobs. I spend my morning watching TV programme until 10.00am and take my bag down to hotel lobby. When I reach lobby, most of the Singapore tourists already there and perform hotel check-out. All of them have change their cloth to white shirt prepared to attend the Bai Shui Sheng Di’s 20th anniversary of Commemorate Thanks-giving Congregation of Enlightenment. After all tourist’s hotel check-out done, we onboard to bus and go to Restaurant Miao San Yuan for our early lunch. Restaurant Miao San Yuan is a vegetarian restaurant. I must say that their vegetarian food is delicious. It is worth for recommendation. The location is 41&43-00-01,Lorong Batu Nilam 1E, Bandar Bukit Tinggi, 41200 Klang, Selangor. We join another two groups of Singapore tourists who are also come to attend the Bai Shui Sheng Di’s 20th anniversary of Commemorate Thanks-giving Congregation of Enlightenment for our lunch. They take 3 days 2 nights tour packages including KL city tour and Malacca tour. Again, I meet with 2 senior tourist guides who guide me and help me a lot during previous 3 days 2 nights Genting Highlands tour. We sit together and enjoy the delicious vegetarian food provided by the restaurant. The service staffs there are friendly. The 3 bus drivers also eat together with us.

After lunch, we continue to our most important destination in this 2 days 1 night trip – IDCC shah Alam where the Bai Shui Sheng Di’s 20th anniversary of Commemorate Thanks-giving Congregation of Enlightenment is hosted. When we reach IDCC Shah Alam, there are already few buses parking there and the entry door are filled with many white shirt’s Tao members attending to Bai Shui Sheng Di’s 20th anniversary of Commemorate Thanks-giving Congregation of Enlightenment. This event attended by 5000 Tao’s member from different country to commemorate 20th anniversary of Bai Shui Sheng Di’s enlightenment. The event last for 4 hours, ended at 5pm. Due to I am not attending to this event, I look for a comfortable sofa to rest and stroll around the furniture, home and décor floors.

Heavy rain started pouring down when the Bai Shui Sheng Di’s 20th anniversary of Commemorate Thanks-giving Congregation of Enlightenment event come to the end. To avoid crowded and congestion, we do not get the bus drive in to the door entry side for onboard. We also do not have our packaged dinner first which is provided after the event. We directly onboard to the bus and drive out of the area and stop at Dengkil R&R for our packaged food dinner. Everybody is so hungry because of early lunch and now the time clock to 5.30pm already. We stop at Dengkil R&R at 6pm for the packaged dinner. On the journey back to Singapore, we stop at Yong Peng bus station for toilet break. When we reach Sultan Abu Bakar Complex – Malaysia Second Link Customs, the time is already 11.15pm. During this timing, inside the customs are already no people, so it is very fast to clear the customs procedure. I farewell to my Singapore tourists after headcount and proceed to go back.


About Bai Shui Sheng Di


Baishui Sheng Di is the heavenly title of Elder Han. Elder Han was one of the senior disciples of Holy Teachers, and he was the leader of one of the eighteen Tao group of I-Kuan Tao — the Fa Yi Group. Elder Han was born in 1901, and he returned to Heaven in 1995.  After receiving Tao and experiencing miracles that saved his life, he dedicated himself to the cultivation and propagation of Tao.  Elder Han’s journey of Tao, though specific to his life and circumstances, can serve as a model for Tao practitioners.

About I-Kuan Tao


I-Kuan Tao (pronounced "yee guan dao") is one of the most significant spiritual movements in Taiwan. Its name can be literally translated as "The Tao that unifies all with the one."

The basis of I-Kuan Tao is rooted in Chinese traditions, with teachings emphasizing traditional values such as family, honor, respect and moderation. It is no exaggeration to call I-Kuan Tao the definitive and authentic Chinese form of spirituality.

The appeal of I-Kuan Tao is not limited to the Chinese. The movement is open to everyone regardless of ethnicity. Many people in the West have already experienced the warmth and acceptance of Tao practitioners. They have also discovered, within I-Kuan Tao, progressive teachings that resonate with the Western mind.
