Went to Kuala Terengganu and Kemaman last week and below are my findings:-

1) Jambatan Angkat is awesome, very nice view from the inside

2) I didnt encounter any 99 speedmart and mamak restaurant at all….people here boikot mamak?

3) Any beach in Terengganu is way better than west coast beach (PD,Langkawi,Morib).Pantai Penarik and Teluk Ketapang is the best in the whole semenanjung IMO

4) Can find nasi dagang for breakfast,lunch,dinner and supper. Just like bkt in klang. Nasi dagang atas tol is the best (and damn cheap) among all that I’ve eaten so far

5) Traffic in Kemaman is busier than KT,the state capital

6) I can see chinese everywhere in Kemaman,but in KT only can see chinese in mall or chinatown

7) Muzium KT is awesome. Huge museum,clean and well maintained

8) Can drink beer and eat bkt in the middle of KT (Chinatown). There are few butcher shops in chinatown where you can buy pork in the morning

9) Keropok seems to be a compulsory side dish in both KT and Kemaman

10) Coffee in Hai Peng is awesome. You can see all the races dine here together

11) For chinese, must try fish noodle and crab yong tau foo in
Kemaman. Cant find these somewhere else

12) Seems like no proper taman perumahan in KT. Most of the people here buy land and build themselves

Overall,the whole trip is more enjoyable than I thought. Would go again next round to explore the islands

P/S : KT and Kemaman ppl, if i miss out anything pls let me know.Will re-visit again next year

3d2n cukup? weekend trip

Cukup…enjoy your trip bro

kemaman busier because of kerteh petronas plants.

these are pubs infront of awana kerteh and also hidden inside church like building few km away from petronas plants, we use to hang out with farang engineers there, they are many thai girls working there also

Nasi Dagang Kelantan miles ahead

U met its Women’s Development rep? It’s beardy dude

West coast sea have more gombak to move away the rubbish

Got 2feidei port or nt

I find it meh only, it's just food/drink.

How much pas pay you?

got drink famous PuAS teh tarik?

Ada tempat cheong?

I want a trip too ,but already waste my leave on something else

Yup makan memang best bro. Bfast/Lunch/Dinner beach view. Rindu ayam study time

i only go terengganu when I want go diving.

The environment under the oaktree at the beach in KT remind me of the beach in penang. Now penang no free beach already

Terengganu resembles Brunei quite a bit.

Kemaman is near to gebeng which is near to kuantan and affected by its culture so more Chinese there. Kuantan got a lot Chinese, even got pubs and clubs operating openly not underground.

KB also got Chinese most the electrical and car shops and hardware shops operated by them, but not denying the population are reducing as most kids will go to KL or Kuantan for a better life

Tried BKT at Kemaman before during kerteh trips
