Assalamualaikum...

I'm proud to be johorean!
Sultan Ibrahim indeed is a friendly and humble man. His humbleness is not an act in front of the cameras, as an acquaintance of mine had been given an opportunity to serve him 'sate' and share stories about the kindness of this man.

May Allah bless you for what you are doing..

5 interesting facts about Johor:

1) Budak2 johor ada sekolah agama dan sekolah kebangsaan. Kalau SK ada subjek math n science, di SA kami ada subjek ibadat, tajwid, hafazan, tauhid, sirah..n kalau bile dah masuk level tinggi, kami blajar munakahat, muamalat dan macam2 subjek lagi..

2) Johor ialah negeri pertama dalam Tanah Melayu yg ada tenteranye sendiri dan kini satu2nya pasukan tentera yg tertua dlm Malaysia yg funded by krajaan negri. Pasukan tentera Johor dikenali sbagai Askar Timbalan Setia Negeri Johor. Pernah ada cadangan dari krajaan pusat utk bubarkan askar Johor, tapi memandangkan ATSNJ diwujudkan jauh lebih dahulu dari Rejimen Askar Melayu Diraja, penubuhan dan pengekalan askar johor dianggap sbgai hak dan keistimewaan sultan dan rakyat Johor..

Bangunan Sultan Ibrahim yang depan Galleria Kotaraya tu  lah base untuk askar Johor ni..

3) Jata diraja Johor ada initial S dan I yg digunakan slpas dari zmn pemerintahan Sultan Abu Bakar yg mrujuk kpd pmerintahan Sultan Ibrahim, Sultan Ismail, Sultan Iskandar, dan yg terkini Sultan Ibrahim.







4) Baju yang dipakai oleh Permaisuri Johor smasa hari pemahkotaan ini direka mirip baju yg dipakai oleh Sultanah Aminah semasa hari pemahkotaan Sultan Ismail pada tahun 1960.


5) Istiadat pemahkotaan ini adalah yg ke4 di negeri Johor. Sultan Abu Bakar (1886), Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Abu Bakar (1895), Sultan Ismail (1960). Sultan Iskandar x buat istiadat pemahkotaan.

Assalamualaikum..

I realize that I have not completed my Japan Travelog yet. Due to time constraint, it seems impossible for me to describe my 12 days activities with words. Hence, I will share a video made by my bestfriend, who is also one of the participants of the ISS 2013, Nurul Izzanie. I believe she had put a lot of effort into this montage and watching the final product make me miss Japan even more!

From this video, u can see that one of the activities is we will stay with the local family. Me and Izzanie are so lucky that we had been assigned to the same family. The Matsuokas are really friendly, and fluent in English. It makes our communication easier. It's hard to find a Japanese that can speak English very well. We were so lucky. Even though we spent 3 days and 2 nights with them, we can feel the love between us. Believe me, we even cried during the last night we are together. By we, I mean me, Izzanie, and the mother. Of course the father holding his tears, but I can feel that he is sad too.





I am sooo grateful for this opportunity to experience Japanese lifestyle. This trip has motivated me to go explore other countries and make friends with lots of people. In sha Allah, if Allah grant me with rezeki, I will travel more often.

P/S ; My homestay parents attend my wedding in Johor Bahru. The next day from my wedding, I bring them to Kukup and to go sight seeing around JB.
