Bangang River

One of the view of River Bangang.

     Boy, what a great night to talk about the beauty of Malaysia! I've been thinking about promoting Malaysia since last night,and I think it's a good idea. Well, we all may have known that Malaysia have some of the most beautiful nature in the world.And tonight, let's get deeper into one of the clearest river in Malaysia. For those who are planning to pay a visit or having a vacation here in Malaysia, you may want to consider having a look at river Bangang.

     This river sure have a unique name. Hey, some may be asking what Bangang means... If you're a Malaysian, you'd probably already knew the meaning. For those who didn't know, Bangang means *CENSORED*. Haha, It's a word that equally means stupid. "What? Seriously man?" Yeah bro. Don't ask me why. Even myself still wondering who and why would somebody give the name Bangang, despite the crystal-clear water. The founder of the name could had experience silly things, who knows. But I'll search about it's history later. And oh, some people also had called the river as Bongok river (which literally means the same as Bangang).

     Now let's talk about the location of Bangang river. The river is located in Hutan Lipur Chemerong, Hulu Dungun district in Terengganu state, or to get things easier, get yourself to this coordinate; 4°49'00.3"N+102°59'57.6"E. You can get to the river by a vehicle about 30 kilometers (or about 19 miles) from Al-Muktafibillah Shah town through Jabor-Jerangau road, or about 100 kilometers from Kuala Terengganu. It's also located in Reserved Forest Pasir Raja, so, you may need to have a permit to explore the forest. One more, you need a pretty TOUGH stamina and strength to get there.So,once again I personally recommending visitor that will go to Terengganu (2017 will be the Visit Terengganu programme announce by the Terengganu government) to see the astounding view yourself.
