MONSOON CUP - I happen to be there in Kuala Terengganu while the MOnsoon Cup was running. My first trip along the east coast. The grounds at which the Monsoon Cup was help was a bit dissapointing as the main building had not been completed. The toilets were unfinished and cement and construction materials were everywhere. To make matters worse it was drizzling and the floor of the main building and exhibition hall was wet and dirty.

Perhaps the highlight was visiting the Pulau Duyung boat making fctory. This factory runned by a German couple who have invested their life savings into building a yacht using Cengal. They looked for a boat making expert (The last of such skills) to help them build this boat.
