Yeah...i am the one who manually marked the temple location on my map,bro. Actually i was lost theologically while trying to locate the Tua Pek Kong Temple last week during map-marking. I need to look into a few maps before locating it and to pinpoint its exact trail from Formosa,hehehe... in other word,i am spoon feeding myself now. I posted it here in the forum in case any mistakes,senior bro or others reading it,like yourself can point me to the correct direction if i happen to mark my map wrongly. This will benefit me and everyone reading it. Thank you,bro...

beside that, it's not really good idea to take those minivan bus.. it;s not safe, it's not comfortable.. there are many pickpocket with all kind of distraction trick, and no aircon in the van and the driver will keep filling their bus even it's already packed like sardin.. imagine the smell and the heat inside the van.. ha ha..
Woah! Thx for yr respond to this one...lucky i never go up the crowded bus that time,otherwise i also don't know where i will end up at....lol. Maybe even kena pickpocket too.

Guess i shall stick to walking then. The bus probably stop by for me cos i dress more or less like their "beggars" in the street....
