The first day, we load our belongings to the bus and i was elected as the patrol leader for patrol 3 in Troop Sultan Alam shah. Before our journey starts a speech was given by some one, i don't know who is it. Later our journey start. The journey last for 5 hours. We stoped at Ayer Keroh resting area to take a 40 minit break before continue on the journey. then it was another short break at Pagoh resting area to take away oour dinner once we reach camp. During the journey our bus got lost but manage to find the right way. It seems that we had took the wrong turning. Once we are at the camp we unload our belongings and stayed under a tent beside a tree. That's where disaster happen!!! U will know why i say so if u read on. Our scouter Encik Ariful and Encik Sharippudin then guide us to our sub camp "Endau Rompin". This is where we camp for the day. The ground was very uneven making an unforgiven place to sleep.
The second day, woke up early in the morning. Actually was woken up by the girls from USJ 13 who are looking for their friends. Later in the morning we clean up the camp area, built gadgets and later we have a meeting with the Selangor contijen. After the meeting many complain of itch on their body and rashes on their body. This is because of the tree that we rest under the tent. The tree has a lot of hairy caterpillars that causes extreme itch if came in contact with. IT is said that the caterpillar had drop on the girls bag and the girls slept with the bags overnight so their body was itching like crazy. SO the girls and a boy was ask to go to the camp clinic to take an injection. During the night we all sit in a circle and we all share clap, cheers, and songs, even the scouters show us a special fruit song LOL.
The third day, it was the starting of the Jamboree means the opening. We were given tongkats as the identity of Selangor contijen. During the afternoon, some of us we down to the stage as our base camp was on top to perform a opening ceremony and a speech was given by the Sultan of Johor. We also manage to witness a marching formation conducted by the air scouts of Kluang, Johor. By the time the ceremony ended the girls were on their way back to their houses because of the incident. At night we just chill with the fire we had started.
The fourth, fifth and sixth day, Were full as jamboree activities. We even manage to trade badges and scarfs from scouts that are from other countries. It rain during the days so my tent was soaking wet cause water came in. During these days there were many cases regarding snake attacks and scorpion attacks. Our neighbour camper got sting by one and his leg was paralyse. Then came the closing ceremony which ended with a display of fireworks.
The last day, We packed up and head to our bus. Our bus was two hours late. In the bus we enjoy watching the movie Shoot Them Up. We say our final goodbyes at PPD at around 6pm.
