<b>KUALA LUMPUR:</b> Malaysians in general are already of the knowledge regarding the quality of the nation’s passport and its recognition as among the best in the world. The term ‘best’ also brings about various advantages to its holder.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next question that comes to mind is: “How powerful is the Malaysian passport?”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Malaysian passport is actually tied with Malta in ninth position on the top 10 most powerful passports in the world. These two passports provide access to 163 countries without a visa.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Eight place belongs to Iceland with an access to 165 countries without a visa, following by South Korea in seventh place with access to 166 countries.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The sixth most powerful passport belongs to Australia, Singapore and Greece (167 countries) while fifth place is shared by Switzerland, Austria and New Zealand (168 countries).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ireland, Canada, France, Japan, Norway, Portugal and Spain are tied in fourth place with access to 170 countries without a visa.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Third place belongs to Italy, Belgium and the Netherlands (171 countries) while the United States, Germany, Denmark and Luxembourg share second place.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The most powerful passport in the world however belongs to the United Kingdom, Finland and Sweden with access to 173 countries without a visa.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The safety features made available in the Malaysian passport, similar to that of other countries on the list, was outlined by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apart from enhancing the integrity of travel documents, Malaysian passports have also had a facelift in terms quality in a bid to curb forgery attempts and to protect the identity of Malaysians.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Its existence allows Malaysians to move freely through international gateways.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Malaysian passport holders can also enjoy the convenience of e-service and automated inspection gates (autogate) provided by ICAO member countries globally.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Meanwhile the weakest passport in the world belongs to Afghanistan with access to only 28 countries without a visa. This is followed by Iraq (31 countries) with Somalia and Pakistan in joint third place (32 countries).</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Schengen visa is the document issued by the appropriate authorities to the interested party for visiting/travelling in and within the Schengen Area. The Schengen Area is comprised of 26 countries that have agreed to allow free movement of their citizens within this area as a single country. Of the 26 countries bound by the Schengen agreement, 22 are part of the EU and the other 4 are part of the EFTA.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Schengen area covers the majority of European countries, except for the United Kingdom and countries such as Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Ireland soon to be part of the agreement. However, there are countries that are not part of the EU like Norway, Iceland, Switzerland and Lichtenstein yet do belong in the Schengen area and cherish the free movement policy.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Schengen Visa Countries List</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Schengen Visa is the representative of the collective of 26 European countries that have mutually decided to eliminate passport and immigration controls at their joint borders. Within the Schengen area, concurrently, the citizens of these 26 European countries are free to travel in and out of this zone as one single country sharing equal international travel rights. The citizens of the Schengen zone countries cherish the right to migrate internationally without any limitations, the basis of free movement, one of the basic human rights.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As an agreement, Schengen was signed among the five out of ten countries of the European Union members back then, on the 14th June 1985. However it was hardly possible to reach a compromise among all the members of the European member states into eliminating the border controls, therefore Schengen was established outside the European community at first. After five years of struggle, the Schengen Convention was added to the establishment proposing the abolition of internal borders and a mutual visa policy. The consensus revealed new rules entirely opposed to the ones within the EU community therefore the aftermath, the creation of the Schengen Area started from scratch on the 26th march 1995. The name came from a small village in Luxembourg, Schengen where the agreement was initially signed. As the number of countries entering the Schengen area was ever growing, with states signing up to join the Schengen area even to this day, the Agreement and the relating conventions got integrated into the European Union Law, effective immediately in 1999. The downside of the Schengen agreement and its relating conventions is that with alleviating the bureaucracy among the Schengen zone countries it consequently reinforced the external border control with the non-European countries as well as the fact that not being a part of the agreement meant not having a say in any amendment or regulation within the European Law.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Under the Schengen agreement, travelling from one Schengen country to another is done without any passport and immigration controls or any other formalities previously required. However, the Schengen Area and the European Union are two completely different zones that shall not be misinterpreted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Schengen Area is comprised of twenty-two European Union member states as well as four European Free Trade Association member states (EFTA is an association of ten Fair Trade importers in nine European countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom). EFTA was established informally in 1987 by some of the oldest and largest Fair Trade importers. It gained formal status in 1990. EFTA is based in the Netherlands and has Dutch Articles of Association.)</div>

There are six European Union member states that are not part of the Schengen area as well as state territories that are also not part of the Schengen agreement. Out of the six Schengen nonmember states, four of them are soon joining the Schengen area as is Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Romania while the other two, Ireland and the United Kingdom remain opt-out (In general, the law of the European Union is valid in all of the twenty-eight European Union member states. However, occasionally member states negotiate certain opt-outs from legislation or treaties of the European Union, meaning they do not have to participate in certain policy areas.) Apart from the aforementioned states as a whole, there are certain territories within EU states that also not part of the Schengen area, including: French territories of French Guyana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Réunion, Mayotte, Saint Barthélemy and Saint Martin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On the other hand, there are four nonmembers of the EU yet members of the EFTA that are part of the Schengen Area together with the other twenty-two EU member states as follows: Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and Iceland. Although they are not EU members, the citizens of these EFTA countries cherish the free movement policy irrespective of their nationality.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although somewhere between a state and a city, these European microstates as San Marino, Monaco and the Vatican also abolished the border control and embraced the free movement among the Schengen Zone Countries, a position referred to as de facto (in practice but not necessarily ordained by law) under the Schengen Agreement.<br /><br /><i><b>Attention! </b>Although most of the Schengen countries are in the European Union, you should not confuse the Schengen area with the EU.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The citizens of the non-Schengen member countries are requested a mandatory Schengen Visa in order to enter the Schengen Zone. There are exceptions to this rule, however: for some countries that are not part of the Schengen Agreement yet aren’t required a visa to enter the Schengen zone.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
In order to travel to one or more of the Schengen Zone countries, as aforementioned, one needs to apply for a Schengen visa at the designated embassy/consulate. There are however, certain requirements similar to every embassy/consulate that have to be met in order to pursuit the application. A unified exemplar of the requested documents with the additional information is meticulously described and listed at <a href="http://www.schengenvisainfo.com/schengen-visa-application-requirements/">Schengen Visa Application Requirements</a> section.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Types of Schengen Visa</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Regarding the nature/purpose of the travel, there are several types of a Schengen visa issued by the designated embassy/consulate.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1. Uniform Schengen Visas (USV)</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Uniform Schengen Visa stands for a permit of one of the Schengen Area Member Countries to transit or reside in the desired territory for a certain period of time up to the maximum of 90 days every six month period starting from the date of entry. According to the purpose of traveling the Uniform Schengen Visa applies to all of the three categories, “A”, “B” and “C”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2. Limited territorial validity visas (LTV)</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This type of visa obtained allows you to travel only in the Schengen State that has issued the visa or in some other cases, in the certain Schengen States specifically mentioned when applying for the visa. Apart from these Schengen countries, this specific visa is invalid to any other Schengen country not specified prior.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">3. National Visas</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The national visa of “D” category is granted to the certain individuals who are to be studying, working or permanently residing in one of the Schengen countries. The national visa can be of a single entry, granted for the people who are in need of residing in the Schengen country for a certain period of time, or for a sole purpose after which they shall return to their country.</div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">We arrived our destination at 12pm and the owner already expected our visit. Thanks to Mr Pekarek, he made a call to the owner as soon as we reached Blučina town. Immediately, she brought us to the store and showed some of their winter cycling attire collections. We took some of the things that we needed the most and they gave us super specials discounts although prices at the factory was already after 50% discount! Alhamdulillah, this is one kind of happiness of the day!</span><br />

Rain all-day-long didn't bother us at all, thanks to this warm cycling attire by Sykora from Czech Republic. As we entered the Austrian border, we were welcomed by its hilly road. Alhamdulillah, we managed to safely arrived in Vienna later that evening and try to reach for wireless connection to contact Mr Iskandar, one of our followers on Instagram. He offered his place for stay if we are in Austria. How thoughtful and kind he is! Dearly known as Abang Is, he fetched us while we're arrived nearby to his house, showed us around his house, and served us dinner. They're very kind-hearted people.May Allah bless their souls and grant them happiness. We exchanged stories about us on the road and he told us about life experiences living in Vienna. Later that night, we slept early, it really was a tiring day, especially cycling in the rain, but we survived! Alhamdulillah, indeed, it was a very long day. <br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: start;">
The next morning, we were introduced to Abang Is's wife, Mrs Fitriah Bakri known as Kak Fit and she prepared us Nasi Lemak! it was so fragrant and utterly delicious!!! Nasi Lemak in abroad! oh goshh, those who are abroad would pay anything to get a taste of this perfect combo; stewed in coconut milk and pureed spices that coated each bit in magnificent flavor. Also the sambal chilli sauce, bursting with flavor, and not to miss these pretty creatures, fried anchovies! oh goshh, alhamdulillah, feeling blissful in Vienna, thank you Kak Fit! You're awesome! </div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
Then, we followed Abang Is sending his friends off to the airport. Then, we accompanied him to the car service until noon. After that, we visited the United Nation building since Kak Fit is working here for the UN. So, we had a little tour inside the buildings. We were left with Asrul Ramli, another Malaysian living in Vienna since Abang Is need to fetch his children from school. Asrul's wife studied here in Vienna and he's off work, so we spent time walking around UN building area. </div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
After Abang Is returned back fetching his children from school, we had a little tour inside UN building. It was a great tour. We saw so many beautiful pieces of artwork and invention from all other UN members. After the tour inside the UN ,Asrul brought us to take a walk along the river to the central mosque and then, we took a train back to Abang Iskandar's home. As we arrived, some of the Malaysian students already waited for us, we cooked and prepared dinner together.</div>

It's ritual thingy they have every weekend in Kak Fit and Abang Is house; the Malaysian students in Vienna will usually gather at their house for small gathering. These students have already heard about us coming by to Vienna and they have been expecting us for 3 days. We're touched to hear that. You guys are the best! But, due to miscommunication with the owner in Brno and Sykora from <span style="text-align: justify;">Blučina, and</span> the unpredictable weather for the past few days, leaving us <span style="text-align: justify;">no choice that we </span>have to delay our journey off to Vienna, so we have to delayed until Wednesday.</div>

The next day, early in the morning, we went out again with Asrul around town and we covered a lot of places the whole day. Asrul brought us to Kahlenberg by bus, and at that night, we witnessed the night view of Vienna from uphills. It was such a breathtaking view, especially with a cup of cappuccino! Then Asrul recieved a phone call from Kak Fitriah, saying that Malaysian Embassy wanted to have a dinner with us and Abang Iskandar family. They served us some traditional cakes and coffee and that night before we did a little tour with the Malaysian Embassy around the city center and we met Abu, a Malaysian student studied in Austria, he's also staying at Abang Iskandar house for a few days with us.</div>

This was my first time experience celebrating eid away from home. Eid in abroad is one instance when you long to be back in your neighbourhood amidst your family, relatives and your childhood friends. You just feel like going back home. Chanting takbirs in the mosque, with an array of people from around the globe is a unique experience for the Muslims residing in non Muslim countries.<br />
<br />
The most interesting parts of celebrating Eid here is when we went to the mosque for Eid prayers, we noticed an array of Muslims, long-robed Arabs, Somalians, Palestinians, Turks, newly-converted white Muslims, Parkistanis, and this motley interacts, embraces and greets each other, even if they are not necessarily familiar with each other. Subhanallah! <span style="text-align: start;">It is wonderful experience to see Islamic values and culture being uphold in non-Muslim countries, witnessing how they celebrate Eidul Adha is one priceless experience i will treasure my whole life</span><br />

Nothing beats celebrating Eid celebration in your own country, and it's the joyous atmosphere and ambiance that is missed the most when celebrating the occasion abroad. The spirit of rumah terbuka - or open house, widely practised by Malaysians for generations - on of the heart warning things that is missing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is the best time of the year for members to savour all-time favourite Malaysian delicacies like satay and ketupat, beef and chicken rendang, spicey sambal and its bursting flavour, mmppph! Memories come rushing back, the ketupat, rendang and food prepared by my mother's loving and her meticulous hands. Oh I miss my family! and not forgetting to mention, we managed to make satay, pieces of meat skewered on thin sticks, grilled over a charcoal fire and dipped in a spicy peanut sauce! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
For Malaysian especially students and expatriates who visit the open house, it's an event they look forward to most eagerly each year. Malaysian living abroad uphold their tradition of wearing Baju Melayu and Baju Kurung during Hari Raya. The colourful parade of these traditional attires worn by the Malaysian students has always fascinated their open house guests. The open house concept during festivities in our country should be continued because it provides a good avenue to promote unity among the people. Some of the foreigners are surprised with the colourful tradition and enjoyed the scrumptious food prepared for guests. Yes, the spirit of sharing among Malaysians are well known for the world over!</div>

There are no accidents; we're all teachers - if we're willing to pay attention to the lessons, we will learn, trust our instincts and do not be afraid to take risks or wait for some miracle to come knocking in front of our door."</div>

We cycled from Dresden heading to Czech Republic border, while on our way to the border we've met a couple cyclist both from Ireland and Germany we're on their trip touring the world. At first everything we're seems to be good but later they have a problem with the bikes and its all change from that moment. They wanted to go to the nearest bike shop because the problem is difficult to handle and doesn't have enough tools and asked us to go first and don't wait for them. So we exchange name card and website, saying goodbye and wish goodluck. May our path crossed again someday!<br />

After that we cycled along the Elb river because the river can get us to Czech Republic, we got an invitation from one of our instagram followers. He invited us to his parents house but he's now working in Singapore and he called his parents tells about us and their parents gave us a place to crash that night. We cycled until 11pm across the forest, darkest and silent night, only the sounds of our tyres heard that night, we rarely changing gears because the sounds could attract attention of wild animals if they're somewhere near us.<br />

We passes small villages along the route and finally we managed arriving at Litomerice, Czech Republic. Without network, we only have the address given by Pavel and it's already almost 12am, we found the house as in address and rang the bell, heard a voice from upstairs and Pavel mother opened the door, laughing and smiling, inviting us into their house. After showing us the room, Pavel father came down, meet and talks with us using google translator while his mother preparing us something to eat and drink. We slept comfortably and leave the house in the morning at 10am after having a proper goodbye with his mother. Thanks for giving this strangers shelter and foods Pavel and family, appreciate the trust given!<br />

We also have a host waiting for us in Prague, Mr Ondreg Kaspar, after arriving we've given a room, a kitchen and a toilet just for us upstairs, it's really a big house! The next morning we go for a quick trip around Prague by bicycle with him but he had to leave for work after that so we do the tour by ourselves after that. On our way back home, one cyclist greet us asking where us from and praising that we've a great bike, before leaving he said he have an apartment in Brno, CZ and it's on our way to Vienna so if we wanted to stay at his place just let him know, but sadly we don't have his number.<br />

Next morning, one of our Malaysian instagram follower left a comment saying that he and his family are currently traveling in Czech Republic and would love to meet us, unfortunately Azrulhan couldn't go along because he had injured his knee while on our way to Prague and he's in recovery mode, so I go alone to the central to met the Malaysian family. While on my way to the central, I bumped again with the cyclist that we met yesterday at the central and he gave me his name card, his name is Misha Pekarek and apparently he have a media company based in Kuala Lumpur!, what a miracle! Then I continue cycling to meet the Malaysian family at the Islamic central, they treat me a lunch and also did had a photography session with his family, thanks for inviting us!<br />

We stay at Mr Ondreg house for a three days then he had to go out town for a wedding so do we, then we go to Islamic center for Friday prayer and met some Malaysian students at the restaurant. Suddenly there's an email from Puan Aida, Penasihat Kedutaan (Pendidikan Dan Kebudayaan), Malaysia Embassy in Prague want to meet us at 3pm, and then her husband, known as Abang AG telling us to go to their house directly but with respect of Pn Aida, we wait until 7pm before going to their house. We've been given a big room, Abang AG also make us Pisang Goreng with sambal kicap Johor! Ohh, it's been a while, a life without Pisang Goreng in Europe! Thanks for that Abang AG.<br />

On Monday, we've had a flag off by Abang AG and Malaysians student for continuing our journey to Brno, we called the cyclist Misha Pekarek and met him in the center, he gave us the key of his house and he also called his friend, David to wait for us and show us how to on the electricity and water pump, he closed them because he rarely back in Brno. That day we safely arrived in Brno and met David, he showed us the house and switched on all the electricity and water pump, thanks for the time and help David! Mr Pekarek house is uphill and a bit far from the city, but from his house we could see entire Brno city, what a beautiful view!. He also said to just use whatever is inside the house just don't burn the house.We stay there for a couple of days and it's hard for us getting an internet connection, so we asked a help from Akieyyy if there's a student house in Olomouc that we could stay for a night or two while waiting for Mr Pekarek coming to Brno that weekend. Thankfully, we got a place to stay in Olomouc with Akieyyy junior house, Kalam, Fikri and Kathi We pray 'Solat Jumaat' in Olomouc, interestingly the Imam for Jumaat prayer by the Malaysian student! Proud!<br />

Friday night we go back to Brno from Olomouc and cleaning up the house because Mr Pekarek were coming by the next day. Tomorrow morning we go for breakfast at Cafe Plazcek and met one Brazilian fixed gear cyclist, Rafael, work for IBM in Brno and already stay here in Brno for two years, we greet each other and he had to go to work after that. Later on, Mr Pekarek arrived and invite us cycling with him but we didn't use a proper cycling attire and he just bring us to the new cafe for cyclist called 'Fixed Beer Brno' and he said he will be coming back in 2 hours. So we stay at met the owner, Mr Sabit, we talk about our cycling adventure and from that moment, the news spread and all the cyclist in Brno knows us. Everywhere we go, people will say, hello Malaysian people while waving their hands.<br />

We went to Dresden from Berlin after receiving an invitation from Benjamin, a student who is in the final year Masters in Politics. Rather than using highway, we prefer biking in the village and the forest because thats where we can see almost everything about the place, both in terms of their architecture, their terrain, and the people who are rich with smiles on their faces when they see us through their village.<br /><br />Kami bertolak ke Dresden dari Berlin setelah mendapat jemputan dari Benjamin, seorang pelajar yang sedang dalam tahun akhir Master dalam bidang Politik. Selain dari melalui jalan highway kami lebih suka berbasikal di kawasan kampung dan hutan kerana disitu kami dapat melihat segalanya tentang tempat itu, baik dari segi senibina mereka, bentuk muka bumi mereka, dan orang-orang kampung yang kaya dengan senyuman di wajah mereka apabila melihat kami merentasi desa mereka.<br /></div>

Cycling from Malaysia Embassy in Berlin to Dresden took us 2 days to arrive. The road is not very hilly, make us able to pedal farther that day, we had to stop sleeping next to 'Elb river' in Coswig because of rain in the evening, although only a few miles away from the city of Dresden, but not good to go to their homes late at night and we plan to sleep here before heading off to his house the next day. But the rain continued until the next day, we packed up quickly when the rain stopped for a while and move on to the city of Dresden.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Perjalanan dari Embassy Malaysia di Berlin mengambil masa 2 hari untuk tiba di Dresden. Jalan yang tidak begitu berbukit-bukau membuatkan kami dapat berkayuh lebih jauh pada hari itu, kami terpaksa berhenti tidur bersebelahan 'Elb river' di Coswig kerana hujan pada malam itu, walaupun hanya tinggal beberapa kilometer sahaja lagi ke bandar Dresden, tetapi kami sudah berjanji akan tiba pada petang jumaat dan tidak elok rasanya pergi ke rumah mereka pada lewat malam lalu kami merancang tidur disini sebelum bertolak ke rumah beliau pada keesokan harinya. Namun hujan berterusan hingga keesokan harinya, kami terpaksa berkemas dengan cepat ketika hujan berhenti sebentar dan meneruskan perjalanan ke bandar Dresden di dalam hujan.</div>

Rain still did not stop, and a few miles from his house there was a bike shop called "<a href="http://www.littlejohnbikes.de/shops.html" target="_blank">Little John Bikes</a>" and we stopped to take a break there. We were welcomed by workers there, and we were also given a free hot coffee, we talked about our adventure cycling from London to Malaysia and they wanted to see our bikes. We bring them into the shop and park infront of the cashier, they asked what brand is this? Never heard before, and we said it's <a href="http://www.bootleg.it/" target="_blank">Cinelli</a> from Italy. Our eyes focused on a pair of bike shoes that have a low discount price, only €42 and there are three pairs which incidentally is our size. There are also several pieces of raincoat also in the promotion for just €10. We bought it and we're given more discounts and free services! We were also given a power bank that can charge any electronic devices because they see the way we navigate using the phone and with it can extend the battery life on our devices. They say it's for the promotion of the brand. <a href="http://www.teasi.eu/en/home/" target="_blank">SMAR.T phone - Bike Holder</a>. Thanks for the kindness! Thanks for the sponsorship!<br /><br /><br />

Hujan masih lagi tidak berhenti dan beberapa kilometer dari rumah beliau ada sebuah kedai basikal "Little John Bikes" dan kami berhenti berehat seketika disana. Kami park basikal kami dan kunci, masuk ke dalam kedai itu dan melihat-lihat barangan di dalamnya. Kami disambut baik oleh pekerja disana dan kami juga diberi kopi panas percuma, kami berbual tentang pengembaraan kami berbasikal dari London ke Malaysia dan mereka mahu melihat basikal kami. Kami bawa masuk basikal kami kedalam kedai dan parking dihadapan cashier. Mata kami tertumpu pada sepasang kasut basikal yang telah diberi harga diskaun yang rendah hanya €42 dan kebetulan terdapat 3 pasang yang memang size kami. Terdapat juga beberapa helai baju hujan yang juga sedang dalam promosi hanya €10. Kami membelinya dan diberikan diskaun harga yang sangat tinggi dan servis percuma. Kami juga diberikan sebuah power bank yang boleh mengecas apa jua electronic devices kami kerana mereka melihat kami navigate jalan menggunakan phone dan dengan adanya benda itu dapat memanjangkan jangka hayat bateri devices kami. Mereka kata itu untuk promosi jenama itu. SMAR.T phone - Bike Holder. Thanks for the kindness! </div>

After leaving the bike shop, we went to find halal food shops, and not far away there is a kebab shop. We lock the bike and went in, with a smile and ask if the meat is halal and they replied yes. When listening to the story of our cycling adventure, they gave us a glass of water "turkish tea" for free! We chatted and exchanged facebook, take a picture together and after finished eating, when we wanted to pay, they say "It's okay, everything's free for you". We thank them and give them the Malaysian flag.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Setelah beredar dari kedai basikal, kami mencari kedai makanan yang halal, dan tidak jauh dari situ ada sebuah kedai kebab. Kami kunci basikal dan masuk kedalam, dengan senyuman dan bertanya adakah daging itu halal dan mereka membalas ya. Apabila mendengarkan kisah pengembaraan berbasikal kami, mereka memberikan kami segelas air "turkish tea" secara percuma! Kami berbual dan bertukar facebook, ambil gambar bersama dan apabila selesai makan, apabila kami mahu membayar, mereka kata "It's okay, everything's free for you". Kami mengucapkan berbanyak terima kasih kepada mereka dan memberikan mereka bendera Malaysia.</div>

When we arrived at the apartment, we rang the doorbell, but no answer, there is suddenly an uncle came to us, asking where we came from and if need any help come alone to his home not far from there, so we want to borrow a phone to call Benjamin , and he would invite to his house because his phone was left at home. I called Benjamin and he said he was in town and would be back in 15 minutes. I thank the uncle and returned to wait Benjamin, then out of a front door of a man with a smile and pointing fingers towards us and said, "You guys are from Malaysia right?". We said yes and responded with a smile, and he introduced himself, apparently he was roommates with Benjamin, whose name Vitec from the Czech Republic, a student majoring in Law.<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Setibanya kami di apartment, kami menekan loceng namun tiada jawapan, tiba-tiba ada seorang pakcik datang ke kami, bertanya dari mana kami datang dan jika perlukan sebarang bantuan datang sahaja ke rumahnya yang tidak jauh dari situ, lalu kami ingin meminjam telefon untuk menghubungi Benjamin, dan beliau mengajak ke rumahnya kerana telefonnya ditinggalkan di rumahnya. Aku menelefon Benjamin dan katanya beliau di bandar dan akan pulang dalam masa 15 minit. Aku mengucapkan terima kasih pada pakcik dan kembali menunggu Benjamin, kemudian keluar seseorang dari pintu hadapan seorang lelaki dengan senyuman dan menuding jari kearah kami dan berkata "You guys are from Malaysia right?". Kami berkata ya dan balas dengan senyuman, dan beliau memperkenalkan diri, rupanya beliau adalah teman serumah dengan Benjamin, namanya Vitec dari Czech Republic, seorang pelajar jurusan Law.<br /></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We were invited into the apartment and talked with him, apparently he had just moved into the house. Not long after Benjamin arrives, Vitec asked permission to go to the market for a while and Benjamin helped us bring our luggage to the apartment and keep the bike in the bike parking spaces in the garage. We talked about our cycling adventure, our route and Benjamin also have been to Malaysia, he told us about his experiences, places visited and the diversity of food, religion and culture in Malaysia. Benjamin and Vitec quite friendly and they showed us every corner of their homes and allow us to eat whatever is in the kitchen. In the afternoon, after shower and washed our clothes, Benjamin bring us walks around the city, he wants to show us a little bit city of Dresden at night. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Before the second world war, Dresden is known as the "Florence on the Elbe" and categorized as the most beautiful city in the world for its architecture and art Treasures. During the war, everything was almost destroyed by a bomb attack in February 1945 by the Anglo-American Force, the city is constantly bombed to April 1945, a result of the destruction, after the war ended they build a "new city" across while the restored old town. Elb river also flows to the Czech Republic as far as Hamburg.<br /><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kami dijemput masuk ke dalam apartment dan berbual bersama Vitec, rupa-rupanya beliau juga baru sahaja pindah masuk di rumah itu. Tidak lama selepas itu Benjamin tiba, Vitec minta izin untuk ke pasar sebentar dan Benjamin bantu kami membawa luggage kami ke apartmennya dan menyimpan basikal di ruangan parking basikal di dalam garajnya. Kami bercerita tentang pengembaraan berbasikal kami, laluan kami dan Benjamin juga pernah ke Malaysia, beliau bercerita tentang pengalaman beliau , tempat-tempat yang dilawati dan kepelbagaian makanan, agama dan budaya di Malaysia. Benjamin dan Vitec cukup peramah dan mereka menunjukkan kami segenap penjuru rumah mereka dan mengizinkan kami makan apa yang ada di dapur. Pada petangnya setelah kami mandi dan basuh baju, Benjamin mengajak kami berjalan di kota, beliau mahu menunjukkan kota Dresden kepada kami. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sebelum perang dunia kedua, Dresden dikenali sebagai "The Florence on th Elbe" dan dikategorikan sebagai bandar tercantik di dunia kerana senibina dan art treasures. Ketika perang, segalanya hampir musnah akibat serangan bom pada February 1945 oleh Anglo-American Force, bandar ini terus menerus di bom hingga April 1945. Akibat dari kemusnahan itu, setelah peperangan tamat mereka membina "new city" di seberang sementara bandar lama dibaik pulih. Elb river ini juga mengalir hingga ke Czech Republic dan sejauh Hamburg!</div>

The next day we were taken by Benjamin cycle to the old city, shown historic buildings that are being restored and then he had to leave because he wanted to find a new phone and we cycle along the Elb river to see the "blue wonder", a blue steel bridge, we cycling across it to the other side and climb to the top of the hill there to see Dresden from high places, if you walk you can take a cable car to the summit, but the climb well worth it with bicycle when we see view of Dresden from the summit! Cycling down the hill was so steep and the gravel road surface sometimes make our tires slipping when pressing the brake, but finally we managed cycling down it. Then we cycling along the Elb river but from the other side to the house.<br /><br />Pada keesokan harinya kami dibawa oleh Benjamin berbasikal ke kota lama, ditunjukkan bangunan-bangunan bersejarah yang sedang dibaik pulih dan kemudian beliau terpaksa beredar kerana mahu mencari phone baru dan kami berbasikal sepanjang elb river untuk melihat "blue wonder", jambatan besi biru dan kami berbasikal merentasinya ke seberang dan mendaki puncak bukit disitu untuk melihat Dresden dari tempat tinggi, jika anda berjalan kaki anda boleh naik cable car ke puncak, tetapi pendakian kami cukup berbaloi apabila melihat pemandangan Dresden dari puncak ini. Perjalanan menuruni bukit ini begitu curam dan permukaan jalan yang gravel kadang-kadang membuatkan tayar kami tergelincir ketika menekan brake, namun kami berjaya berbasikal menuruninya. Kemudian kami berkayuh menyusuri Elb river tetapi dari seberang yang lain pula menuju ke rumah.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
That evening we go together to the shopping market to buy some ingredients for dinner, they want to cook pasta for dinner that night. They cook while we prepare dinner table. After dinner, Benjamin friends came, Roland and Isabel, they wanted to stay at Benjamin place also while they find rental homes here in Dresden, they are also a new student here. Rolan and Isabel also have travelled to Malaysia and Indonesia before! That night, we did not go anywhere, just relax at home transfer all the photos and videos into the dropbox. The next day we and Vitec decided to go to Dresden Panometer, suggested by Benjamin, but he did not go along because he have been there already before. Incidentally Roland and Isabel have an appointment to see the house that they want to rent, and they gave us a ride to Dresden Panometer, so we've save some money and time to go there.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Dresden Panometer is an attraction in Dresden, Germany. It is a panoramic painting inside a former gasometer, showing Dresden as it might have appeared in 1756. The paintings using a combination of art and technology, adobe photoshop, the results do look like a real picture in a photo. In the middle there is the tower and we can see the picture from the 1st till the 4th floor, this picture will rotate 360 degree and will change day and night, followed by the sounds. The result was quite amazing and we got a discount on that day because Vitec tells them that we were a students like him just still don't have a student card yet because we're just came here, but whatever the cost is, it's really worth it! Then we walked back to the house, while on our way finding food for lunch, we talked about halal and haram according to Islamic views. Why muslims should eat halal and not haram. We also told him that everytime something is 'haram' it is not only focused on religious view only, but has been proven by scientific research and then we find halal food shop together that day.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Petang itu pula kami pergi ke 'shopping market' membeli bahan masakan untuk malam itu, mereka ingin memasak pasta untuk dinner malam itu. Kami menyediakan meja makan sementara mereka memasak. Kawan Benjamin datang bersama pasangannya, iaitu Roland dan Isabel, mereka ingin tumpang tidur di rumah Benjamin sementara mereka dapat mencari rumah sewa, mereka juga pelajar baru disitu dan malam itu kami tidak kemana-mana, hanya berehat di rumah sahaja memindahkan gambar-gambar dan video ke dalam dropbox. Keesokan harinya kami dan Vitec ke Dresden Panometer, tempat yang disyorkan oleh Benjamin namun beliau tidak mahu pergi bersama kerana sudah pergi kesana sebelum ini dan ada sedikit kerja. Kebetulan Roland dan Isabel ada 'appointment' untuk melihat rumah yang mereka ingin sewa, lalu mereka menumpangkan kami ke Dresden Panometer.<br /><br />Ia merupakan tinggalan bangunan gasometer dan didalamnya terdapat lakaran panorama bandar Dresden, gambaran seperti ketika tahun 1756. Hasil lukisan ini menggunakan gabungan lukisan dan teknologi adobe photoshop, hasilnya memang tampak seperti sebuah gambaran sebenar di dalam foto. Di tengah-tengahnya ada menara dan boleh melihat lukisan ini dari tingkat 1 hinggalah tingkat 4, gambar ini juga akan berpusing 360 degree dan akan bertukar siang dan malam diikuti bunyi-bunyian. Hasilnya memang menakjubkan dan kami mendapat harga diskaun pada hari itu kerana vitec menerangkan kepada mereka kami juga pelajar seperti beliau cuma belum mendapat kad pelajar, memang berbaloi! Kemudian kami berjalan pulang ke rumah sambil berbual tentang halal dan haram mengikut pandangan islam. Kami juga memberitahu yang setiap sesuatu yang diharamkan itu bukan hanya tertumpu pada pandangan agama sahaja, namun telah dibuktikan oleh kajian saintifik lalu kami bersama-sama mencari kedai makanan halal pada hari itu.<br /></div>

That night, we cooked them fried rice, but we didn't ask them to eat with their hands, but they insist wanted to use their hands and asked us to teach them how. Roland was accustomed to eating with his hands because while traveling in Malaysia, Indonesia and India last year he mostly eating with his bare hands a lot, and not awkward when eating with hands. That moment is the memory that we will never forget, I can't wait to write about what's happening at the time, we just smile and laugh seeing them full by the fried rice, that's enough to fill our hearts a happy feeling. Vitec wanted to say goodbye and wishes us a good luck and have a safe journey because he had a language class early at 8 am tomorrow. That night I finished writing our blog about what's happening in Berlin until late at night and pack all the luggage the next day. We left after breakfast, says goodbye to Roland and Isabel, Benjamin helps us prepare the bikes and sent us to the city because he had work to do in the city.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thank you for sharing everything with us Benjamin, Vitec, Roland and Isabel, gave us shelter, foods and trust! For us, people without a sense of trust, happiness would not exists and the most precious treasure we bring along every time we travel is the kind hearted, tolerant, forgiving, honest and trust. Without all these, we're a poor traveler! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pada malam itu, kami masakkan mereka nasi goreng, tetapi kami tidak menyuruh mereka makan menggunakan tangan namun mereka yang mahu menggunakan tangan dan meminta kami mengajar mereka. Roland pula sudah biasa makan menggunakan tangan kerana semasa mengembara di Malaysia, Indonesia dan India tahun lepas beliau banyak kali makan menggunakan tangan dan sedikit pun tidak kekok. Nasi goreng kami habis licin dimakan dan mereka siap tambah dua kali! Hari itu memang suatu memori yang tak akan kami lupakan, hati ini tidak sabar ingin menulis tentang apa yang sedang berlaku di hadapan mata ketika itu. Walaupun aku tahu portion makanan mereka sedikit namun apabila melihat mereka makan tambah dan dari raut wajah mereka yang kenyang cukup membuatkan hati kami senang. Vitec mengucapkan selamat jalan dan wish good luck and have a safe journey kepada kami kerana keesokan harinya beliau ada kelas langguage seawal 8 pagi keesokan harinya. Malam itu aku menyiapkan tulisan blog tentang apa yang berlaku di Berlin sehingga lewat malam dan mengemas barang-barang pada keesokan harinya. Kami bertolak selepas bersarapan dan Benjamin menghantar kami ke bandar kerana beliau juga ada urusan di bandar. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Terima kasih kerana berkongsi segalanya dengan kami, memberikan kami tempat tinggal, makanan dan kepercayaan. Bagi kami, manusia tanpa rasa percaya, kebahagiaan tidak akan wujud dan harta yang paling berharga kami bawa setiap kali mengembara adalah budi baik, bertolak ansur, pemaaf, jujur dan percaya. Tanpa sifat-sifat ini, aku seorang pengembara yang miskin.</div>

We arrived in Berlin from Hamburg, and going to stay at one of our host friend back in Cologne. They help us ask his friend called Stefan Beerbaum if he have a place for us to stay on Monday, and he said yes! So we go to Berlin, met him and we've go on the top of one of the building near to his house to watch sunset in Berlin, the view really breathtaking! We talk a lot, about life, about ourselves, about Berlin history and Stefan also once travelled the world by bicycle and have travelled in Malaysia too!<br /><br /><br />He lives in Neukölln, the hippest place in Berlin and lots of immigrant especially from Turkish and Russian. We could see most of Turkish people conquered almost half of the shops there, they have their own shop, barber, food shop and mosque. So its easy for us to find halal food here, plus standard of living here in Berlin also a bit cheaper compared to Frankfurt, Cologne and Hamburg. Food and apartment rent is cheaper here, so that's explain why there's so many immigrants comes in Berlin!<br /><br />

The next day we roam the city of Berlin, go some sightseeing with bikes, learning the history about the east and west Berlin, about Berlin wall and we can see that many architecture in Berlin we're influenced by the Russian architectures. The official purpose of this Berlin Wall was to keep Western “fascists” from entering East Germany and undermining the socialist state, but it primarily served the objective of stemming mass defections from East to West. The Berlin Wall stood until November 9, 1989, when the head of the East German Communist Party announced that citizens of the GDR could cross the border whenever they pleased. That night, ecstatic crowds swarmed the wall. Some crossed freely into West Berlin, while others brought hammers and picks and began to chip away at the wall itself. To this day, the Berlin Wall remains one of the most powerful and enduring symbols of the Cold War.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We also try to find a new hubs for Azrulhan bike because he's bike have only 3 gears and that's not suitable when we meet the Alps later! So, from one shop to another we go, still can't find, plus we also find it in ebay but still nothing we're in a good condition. Stefan also help me to get cheap pannier bag in ebay and we got a secondhand pair for only 50euro, well actually its 59euro but then after we say we're on a big trip and he gave us a pair for only 50euro, plus its was never been use and still new in plastic bag!<br /><br /><br />Then Stefan had to go to work and we stay at home, thinking and that time Azrulhan family called and they talked about this issue we have and his parents agreed to gave him an advance payment to buy new bikes and I text the owner of the shop in Hamburg and they said yeah, we could give you another one with the same price as before, the deal is still on! So we wait for Stefan back from work and packed all our luggage and go to Hamburg by bus because that's the fastest and cheapest. Every bus here got a place for bicycles!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It takes us about 4 hours from Berlin to Hamburg by bus and waiting for the shop to open up, they get the bikes ready and we change a new rack and ready to roll! So we took another bus from Hamburg back to Berlin but we just sleep beside the river without set our tent, just with our sleeping bag on the bench. In afternoon while still looking for a place to stay that day we visit the Keirin Bicycle Culture Cafe in Kreuzberg because they know the owner of bicycle shop that sponsors us in Hamburg, we also know them the legendary Gary & Mo, bike messenger in Berlin for more that 10 years and also Mo did a tour with fixed gear from Berlin to Mongolia! They gave us a cycling cap and stickers and free drinks! The other day also we got free service for the bikes! Thanks, appreciate it a lot!<br />
<br />
<br />
The next day while looking for a place to stay, our email to the embassy replied by Sir Afeek, it was a relieved since at that moment it looks like its going to be rain that night. Sir Afeek welcomes us to his resident in Malaysian Embassy and we stayed there for 6 days! Given food and nice room, warm shower, clean our clothes and we also given help by one of Malaysian that have stayed in Berlin for more than 20 years, help us getting another pannier bag from another ebay seller that her house almost 30km from our place by his car, we also have a 'teh tarik' before back to the embassy resident.<br /><br /><br />We had some photoshoot with Ambassador Dato' Salman Ahmad with all the staff in Botschaft Von Malaysia on Tuesday and flag off on Thursday, thankfully he gave some donations to us for the journey and some advice and pray. So we off to Dresden that day but stop for wild camp near the elb river in Coswig. New bikes makes us a bit comfortable when riding. Thanks Suicycle! Thanks Cinelli! Thanks Hamburg! Thanks Stefan! Thanks to the Ambassador and all the staffs! Appreciate every seconds time we've had with all of you!<br />

As recommended by Sir Afeek, we also did go to the Mauer park that sells second hand item. There's so much second hand item you could find almost everything here from small keychain till furniture! Mauer park is the biggest second hand market in Berlin and close a bit late, but if you want to get great and rare item, you must be here early in the morning!</div>

One of our couchsurfer friend back in Reims france said to us, life when travelling with couchsurfing is like a snowball, the more you keep on rolling with kindness and respect and honesty, the bigger your snowball will be. But let the snowball remains white and pure, never get it's dirty even for a bit, people will see it anyway. Thanks for the advice! We will keep that in mind for sure!<br /><br /><br />

"Up and Away!"<br />
<br />
<br />
It was a week of holiday in Hamburg, Germany after a month of cycling from London to Dortmund, Germany. So many places we've been, so many terrains we've road, and we're thinking about staying a week after we've seen Hamburg for the first time, bike friendly road, so many cyclist, kind hearted friends, nice city with spectacular view of the old buildings, well organised train and we could train hopping around Hamburg for free!</div>

We can say that all bicycle's scene in this world are connected through social networks. We're driven by same passion makes us unite in a very special way, and I always remind myself that in travelling, we actually have so many friends, so many families in any part of this world, it's just we didn't met them yet, and to meet them, we have to cycle slow, take time to find friends, locals that could hosts you for a night or two. There's always someone, kind hearted willingly to let you stay at their house, and you'll be shocked by the trust that they've put on us. For me, 'trust' is something that is real hard to earn, and I appreciated it and will always bear in mind to never ruined it even with both of my parents!</div>

So, this is how this stories started, we've been staying at Benny's place, quite helpful, kind-hearted, always bit worried about us not having so much fun in Hamburg and thanks for everything. Thanks for sending me some stickers and goodybag from Suicycle Store before this in Malaysia and support our merchandise too!. Thanks to Benny from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/hardbrakers" target="_blank">Hardbrakers</a> again to introduce us to this bike store called <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/suicycle-storecom/61249667091" target="_blank">Suicycle Store</a>. First time we came to the store, our eyes stunned by the beautiful <a href="http://www.bootleg.it/" target="_blank">Cinelli Hobo Bootleg</a>, a perfect machined for our epic journey, "Journey to Homeland"!</div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
During the stay in Hamburg, we've tried to email the Suicycle Store about our journey and asked for sponsorship of the Cinelli Hobo Bootleg for the two of us, and one of the owner gave us a positive replied said that they can't give a free for the bikes but could give us a big discount for it. So, after thinking for a while, because of we didn't have that much money to buy it and suddenly we think about the money that sponsored by ' <a href="https://www.facebook.com/triptoeropah" target="_blank">Trip Eropah Management UK</a> ' which just a small one but could afford our expenses for food every half of each months, but after we combined it altogether yeah, that money could get us the bikes as well. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
We did emailed them asking for an advanced payment but after two days waiting for the reply, we couldn't get it as they'll stick with the monthly payment as agreed before. As I really need to change the bike fast because there's a slightly problem with the front disc brake and just relying for the rear brake only plus the bikes are bit heavy with the absorber in front with no lock. So I decided to ask for an advanced payment from my parents for the bikes, and later will payback from the money that I get from the monthly sponsored payment. </div>

All going well, money transferred and I get the bikes with a very big discount thanks to Suicycle Store, Jan and Alex for all the free stuff, cycling cap and tees and free services, plus Alex helps us a lot solving the problem for the front rack and all is well now. The day when we're leaving to Berlin, <a href="http://www.van-endert.com/" target="_blank">Jan Van Endert</a> who were the photographer for the Suicycle Store wanted to take some photos of us in front of the shop, and thanks for the coffee that morning too! </div>

Sepanjang seminggu kami di Hamburg, kami banyak belajar tentang budaya orang Germany, di mana mereka mementingkan adab dan masa. Ketika belajar di German-Malaysian Institute aku ada juga diajar serba sedikit tentang bahasa dan tentang orang Germany dan apabila sudah berada disini, dapat dilihat suasana sebenar tentang adab dan masa yang pernah aku belajar suatu ketika dahulu. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hari pertama disini kami tinggal di rumah Benny, kenalan basikal aku, beliau pernah membeli barangan dari kami dan dapat kami lihat barang-barang kami tergantung sebagai salah satu koleksi-koleksi beliau. Kami merancang tinggal lama di Hamburg untuk menyaksikan sendiri bagaimana Critical Mass diadakan disini, kerana aku pernah dengar yang sepanjang 3 tahun ini jumlah terbanyak pernah hadir adalah mencecah hampir 5000 orang! dan kami hendak sangat-sangat menyaksikan dan turut serta menjadi sebahagian daripada Hamburg Critical Mass pada hujung bulan ini.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Kami join ride dua kali pada hari Isnin dan Selasa bersama kawan-kawan disini, kebanyakan masa kami adalah dengan berkayuh pusing bandar Hamburg. Kami juga dibawa ke sebuah kedai basikal yang terkenal iaitu Suicycle Store, menjual bermacam jenis basikal Fixed Gear dan Single Speed. Kami juga diberi dua cycling cap dari mereka sebagai cenderahati. Kami dilayan baik tak kira siapa yang kami jumpa di sini, hampir semua kawan-kawan basikal disini tahu akan kedatangan kami, dan mereka melambai jika jumpa di tengah jalan, ada yang memanggil hello Malaysian people dan berbual, mereka juga bawa ke kedai makan. Pada hari khamis pula kami dibawa berkayuh ke pelabuhan lama dan dari sana kami dapat melihat kota Hamburg, pemandangan yang cukup cantik ketika matahari terbenam dan lampu-lampu bandar mula menerangi kota Hamburg.</div>

Critical Mass bermula pada awal 1992, 6pm di San Francisco dan hanya beberapa orang sahaja yang datang kerana mendapat 'flyers' ketika di Market Street dan ketika itu ianya dikenali dengan nama "Commute Clot". Tidak lama selepas itu mereka ke sebuah kedai basikal untuk menyaksikan tayangan dokumentari oleh Ted White's, 'Return of the Scorcher', menceritakan tentang budaya berbasikal di luar negara dan di dalam tayangan itu terdapat satu kisah di China dimana penunggang motorsikal dan basikal mempunyai cara tersendiri untuk menyeberang jalan tanpa menggunakan signal iaitu dengan mengumpulkan seberapa ramai penunggang yang mahu menyeberang jalan dan bergerak bersama dan situasi ini dinamakan "Critical Mass", dan sejak dari itu nama Commute Clot ditukar kepada Critical Mass.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Critical Mass juga dipanggil sebagai "Organized Coincidence", tiada ketua, tiada keahlian dan tiada siapa yang menguruskannya. Perjalanannya adalah mengelilingi bandar secara spontan mengikut siapa yang dihadapan, atau mengikut undian jika ada yang setuju jika mengikut laluan yang diedarkan di flyers. Oleh kerana Critical Mass tiada laluan yang tetap dan tiada marshall maka mereka menggunakan teknik "Corking" iaitu dengan cara beberapa orang penunggang di hadapan menahan trafik agar memberi laluan kepada penunggang basikal yang di belakang dan keadaan ini berulang-ulang.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hari ini adalah hari terakhir kami di Hamburg dan akan bertolak ke Berlin pula. Setakat ini personally, Hamburg adalah kota terbaik yang kami pernah jelajahi! Auf und Davon!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Lama juga kami tak update, harini baru berkesempatan menulis. Begitu banyak perkara yang berlaku selama beberapa hari ini sejak bertolak dari Cologne ke Hamburg. Perjalanan dari Cologne bermula dengan cuaca yang baik dan kemudian dituruti dengan hujan yang datang sekejap-sekejap dan kadang-kadang begitu lama membuatkan kami banyak berhenti, basah dan keletihan. Tambahan pula, perjalanan menuju ke utara Germany suhunya semakin menurun, dan semakin sejuk kerana semakin hampir dengan Denmark dan Norway. Kelengkapan pakaian yang kami ada untuk melindungi badan dari cuaca sejuk adalah tidak sesuai dan masih ada yang berkurangan. </span></div>

Syukur dalam perjalanan kami yang diiringi hujan ini kami mendapat jawapan dari salah seorang ahli "Couch Surfing" di Duisburg, beliau mengalu-alukan kedatangan kami, menunggu kedatangan kami di tingkap rumah beliau dan apabila kami semakin hampir beliau memanggil kami dan menunjukkan isyarat beliau akan turun ke bawah. Dipelawa kami masuk, angkatkan barang-barang kami dan diberi kami bilik anak beliau yang kebetulan tiada pada hari itu dan akan datang pada tengah hari esoknya. Setelah menunjukkan semua bilik, bahan makanan, wifi password, beliau keluar untuk berjumpa kawan-kawan dan meninggalkan kami dirumahnya sendirian begitu sahaja. Tanpa rasa takut, tanpa rasa curiga menyerahkan sebuah rumah kepada orang asing seperti kami ini. Kami cukup terharu atas kepercayaan yang diberi, lalu berbisik dalam hati, apa di negara aku masih adakah insan seperti ini? Masih adakah?<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBAX4OPs8rWveuZdDgS8A7QFzZFD905MVhDoLwLjKS3TyNQdiSyyDIiY9HPS663Wi9KEILEoBu4PLZMOzkey4k-f3-aQpGmDErXYifTaao85Fdt0dyHE6vpu4hRl8TFhC618muiRmadA/s1600/GOPR6038.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBAX4OPs8rWveuZdDgS8A7QFzZFD905MVhDoLwLjKS3TyNQdiSyyDIiY9HPS663Wi9KEILEoBu4PLZMOzkey4k-f3-aQpGmDErXYifTaao85Fdt0dyHE6vpu4hRl8TFhC618muiRmadA/s1600/GOPR6038.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />Keesokan harinya beliau memberi kami tips-tips perjalanan dan dimana kami boleh dapatkan barangan untuk menghadapi musim sejuk yang akan datang. Kami berjaya menuju ke destinasi yang dituju di Herne untuk membeli foot protection dan penutup muka, kami juga membeli khemah baru yang lebih besar sedikit kerana khemah kami yang lama begitu sempit dan hanya dapat memuatkan kami berdua sahaja. Walaupun duit cukup-cukup sahaja tetapi terpaksa membelinya juga kerana cuaca di Germany yang tidak menentu dan barang-barang kami sering kebasahan ketika hujan dan kerana embun pagi. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Kami meneruskan kayuhan pada hari itu dan sampai ke Dortmund yang ketika itu begitu ramai orang di tengah-tengah bandar kerana ada perlawanan bola, lebih teruk Dortmund kalah pada malam itu dan ramai orang mabuk dan memecahkan botol di jalanan serta ada beberapa demonstrasi menyebabkan kami sukar bergerak dan tidak tahu kearah mana harus dituju. Pada malam itu juga cable Iphone aku juga tersangkut pada rim hadapan dan putus serta bateri semakin menurun, kerana di phone itulah segala contact kawan-kawan disini tersimpan dan sepatutnya berjumpa dengan kawan-kawan disitu, Steffan. Akhirnya kami buat keputusan untuk tidur di Youth Hostel pada malam itu dan kerana di tengah bandar ini amat sukar untuk kami 'wild camp'.<br />

Kami ke Bochum pada keesokan harinya untuk melihat acara lumba basikal yang di 'organise' oleh kawan-kawan di Dortmund, kenalan kami di Hamburg, Benny juga turun turut serta walaupun mereka baru sahaja pulang sehari setelah pengembaraan mereka ke Morocco seminggu yang lepas. Ramai kenalan baru kami jumpa disana, pelumba-pelumba 'professional' dan mereka mengalu-alukan kedatangan kami pada hari itu, kami disambut baik oleh semua orang yang ada juga datangnya dari France dan semestinya kami adalah yang paling jauh!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Setelah tamat perlawanan pada hari itu, Benny membawa basikal dan segala muatan ke dalam van mereka dan membawanya ke Hamburg. Kami pula menaiki train menuju ke Hamburg dari Bochum dan backpack menuju ke alamat rumah Benny yang tidak jauh dari train station. Kami akan tinggal disini sehingga Jumaat untuk turut serta dalam Critical Mass Hamburg yang kami tahu jumlah 'cyclist' yang turut serta boleh mencecah 1500 orang!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Setelah lima puluh tujuh tahun merdeka</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Setelah lebih lima dekad Melayu memerintah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
merancang dan melaksanakan pembaharuan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
mengapa katanya Melayu masih ketinggalan?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
menjadi ‘penumpang’ dengan gelar ketuanan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
menjadi ‘pengemis’ dalam watan yang kaya-raya</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
menjadi ‘miskin’ di kepuk bumi sendiri</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
menjadi ‘melukut’ dalam gantang peribumi</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ah, melayukah Melayu ini?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
yang melarat di pertiwi sendiri?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tahap ekonomi masih jauh dari sasaran DEB</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Takah 30% kabur,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
langkah mencapainya sering terbentur</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
usahawan kecil lemas dalam bantuan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
korporat ‘instant’ tenggelam dalam pinjaman</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lahir segelintir elit ekonomi yang lupa jati diri</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
kaya raya oleh label bumiputera, tapi sudahnya melupakan bangsa</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lahir pula usahawan marhein yang miskin</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Walau ilmu ditabur modal dihulur,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
tapi bisnes tak ‘betul-betul’</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
‘berniaga buluh kasap’</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
modal habis untung lesap!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bankrap terlalu kerap – itu bukan lagi sesuatu yang hina</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
tapi satu strategi penuh rencana</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dasar Pelajaran Kebangsaan masih impian</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bila pelajar Melayu terus ketinggalan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Di IPTA atau di IPTS – dari segi kuantiti atau kualiti</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bilangan mahupun kelulusan… siswazah Melayu masih pinggiran</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
soal kuota tak terisi atau kantung ibu-bapa yang tak berisi?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bahana idealisme atau bahang hedonisme?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
kata seorang pengkaji: Itu gara-gara makanan Melayu tidak bergizi</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
kata media Melayu: Itu angkara sikap yang terlalu dimanjakan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
kata pemimpin: Itu akibat malas, lembab dan tak mahu bersaing</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ah, ketika begini teringat pula lagu lama – lagu Melayu</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
‘bangau, oh! bangau…’</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bila semua pihak saling menuding jari</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
demi menyelamatkan maruah diri</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Jenguk-jenguk pulalah ke Pusat Serenti</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
(sekarang sudah ditukar nama tetapi tidak bertukar isi)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
tanyakan apa ‘khabar’ orang di sana</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
atau singgah sahaja di lorong sempit di belakang Chow Kit</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
sapalah remaja harapan bangsa yang telah menjadi mangsa</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
jangan bicara soal patriotisme,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
‘perut’isme pun mereka sudah lupa</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bukan ratus, bukan ribu, tetapi ratus ribu</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
itu belum dikira bohjan dan bohsia</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
belum dicampur penjenayah juvana</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
perogol, liwat dan penzina</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
judi, arak, mencuri, merompak</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ah, tidak perlu data statistik dan angka-angka komputer</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
cukup sahaja dengan mata dan telinga</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
untuk memastikan siapakah mereka?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ya, siapa lagi… Melayulah jua</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lebih kronik konflik politik</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
diantara parti dengan parti</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
dan sesama sendiri dalam satu parti</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
sama-sama nekad, sama-sama dahsyat</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
musim pilihanraya – ajak kawan lawan parti lawan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
musim pemilihan – ajak kawan makan kawan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
riuh sejak lama tentang politik wang</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
heboh sampai sekarang tak hilang-hilang</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bergaduh soal nyamuk membakar kelambu</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bertikai soal ‘cara’ mengorbankan ‘hala’</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
terlupa nilai adat dan tatasusila bangsa</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
terpinggir prinsip akhlak dan hukum agama</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
kuasa jadi ‘komiditi’ yang menjanjikan laba</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bukan lagi amanah yang berisikokan dosa</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ah, semakin ramai Melayu yang ingin memimpin</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
sedangkan ada yang tak layak… walaupun sekadar untuk dipimpin</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
tak mahu jadi gerabak, bertolak-tolak nak jadi kepala</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
akhirnya ‘keretapi’ bangsa terhenti…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
perjalanan bangsapun tergendala!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Kembalilah ke sejarah, belajarlah dari Rasulullah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bagaimana baginda membina satu bangsa bermaruah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
sedangkan awalnya terkenal barbar dan jahiliyah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
lihat apa yang disuburkannya di peringkat Makkah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
lihat apa yang digemburkannya di peringkat Madaniah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bukankah apa yang dihadapinya penuh persamaan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
dengan nasib kita yang sering ditimpa kehinaan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
justeru Arab jahiliyah itu cermin sejarah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bagi setiap bangsa yang bermasalah…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
belajarlah dari Arab jahiliyah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Politiknya kacau-bilau – perang saudara tak pernah aman</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
antara kabilah, bani dan suku sentiasa bercakaran</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
sebab yang sedikit, perangnya berkait-kait</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ekonominya tenat – monopoli Yahudi mencengkam nadi</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
telaga, pasar dan kebun dimonopoli</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
terpaksa menjadi ‘hamba’ di bumi sendiri</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sosialnya parah – zina, arak, tenung nasib, bunuh bayi</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bangsa hilang maruah, umat hilang arah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Rom dan Parsipun tak sudi menjajah!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Itulah gambaran bangsa yang sangat tenat</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
gersang, kontang, lemah, kalah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
menunggu saat untuk dicampakkan ke longkag sejarah!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tiba-tiba datang Rasulullah membedah masalah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
‘first thing first’ – operasi di dalam diri, diselesaikannya ‘soal hati’</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
disingkirkannya syirik dicantasnya berhala meterialistik</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
lalu diperkenalkan Allah – agar cinta dan takut hanya pada-NYA</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
dikenalkannya Akhirat – agar ghairah syurga dan gundah neraka</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
lihat alam, lihat semesta… bukti kewujudan-Nya</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
jangan nafikan penciptaan kedua (akhirat)…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ketika penciptaan pertama (dunia) sudah di depan mata!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Walaupun ekonomi, politik, sosial jahilyah menghadapi masalah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
tetapi Rasul mendahulukan akidah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
diperhebatkannya dakwah, dipertingkatkan tarbiah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
disemai iman, dituainya persaudaraan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
justeru ekonomi sakit sebab iman sedikit</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
justeru politik tersasar apabila ukhwah melonggar</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
justeru sosial hancur akibat iman dan ukhwah meluntur</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bukan menafikan keperluan ilmu, kepakaran teknologi</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tapi jangan sekali-kali diremehkan soal hati</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
kerna ini bukan hanya soal pengetahuan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
tapi sebenarnya soal kemahuan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bukan masalah kurang harta tapi masalah ‘miskin’ jiwa</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bukan kekuatan luaran tapi kekuatan dalaman</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
kerana bangsa tanpa kekuatan iman…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bagai kapal hilang pedoman</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Indahnya bila iman menjadi teras kepakaran dan pengetahuan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
gagahnya bila iman menjadi asas pembangunan dan kemajuan</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
itulah langkah susulan selepas iman di Makkah</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Rasul membina sosial, ekonomi dan siasah…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
dengan roh iman di Madinah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
bukan seperti Arab jahiliyah…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
yang memisahkan kehidupan daripada akidah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Belajar daripada sejarah menangnya Rasulullah</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Belajarlah daripada sejarah kalahnya Arab Jahiliyah!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Aduhai bangsa ku,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Jangan hanya merdeka geografi, tapi hati terjajah…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
- genta rasa<br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">

Ketika kami di sempadan France lagi, ada seseorang dari Cologne, Germany inbox dalam page kami <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sicksidersmalaysia" target="_blank">SICK SIDERS</a> dan menawarkan kami duduk di rumah beliau jika kami melalui Cologne, dan kami balas "ya" kerana kami mahu ke Bremen dan perjalanan kami akan melalui Cologne.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sesampai sahaja di Cologne selepas menyusuri keindahan sungai Mosel dan Rhine dari Frankfurt ke Cologne dan tidur semalaman di pondok bas di pekan Loch, kami cuba menghubungi beliau, David Senftleben dan David menyuruh kami tunggu kedatangan Sabrina, girlfriend beliau datang ambil kami. Sabrina memberitahu bahawa David baru sahaja mendapat panggilan untuk job interview di Berlin pada keesokan harinya dan beliau sedang sibuk berlatih untuk interview itu, jadi tak dapat datang ambil kami.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xhstZ-oF91I/U_WzohE9QpI/AAAAAAAAYys/q4-GR368DxY/s1600/GOPR5717.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xhstZ-oF91I/U_WzohE9QpI/AAAAAAAAYys/q4-GR368DxY/s1600/GOPR5717.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Di rumah mereka , kami di sambut baik oleh David dan kami berbual panjang hingga larut malam. Rupanya mereka baru pulang 2 bulan ke sini setelah mengembara dunia, dan menariknya mereka pernah ke Malaysia berbasikal dan patah tangan ketika dalam perjalanan ke Kuantan dan terpaksa menetap dan dirawat di Malaysia. Mereka juga dirawat oleh tukang urut tradisional Malaysia (bukan bomoh Malaysia!) dan dilayan baik oleh ramai orang di Malaysia dan mereka melayan kami sama seperti apa yang mereka rasa. Setelah pulang juga mereka sedang dalam keadaan yang terumbang-ambing kerana David sedang mencari perkerjaan kerana telah berhenti kerja untuk mengembara.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Walaupun sedang dalam kekusutan kerana terdapat begitu banyak job interview dalam seminggu ini, beliau memberitahu kedatangan kami membuatkan beliau rasa gembira dan melupakan sebentar kerja-kerja dan bawa kami jalan-jalan melihat sekitar bandar Cologne, kerana beliau juga ingin menghirup udara luar. Tempat pertama mereka bawa kami adalah sebuah masjid yang baru dibina hanya selang satu blok dari rumah mereka iaitu <a href="http://www.zentralmoschee-koeln.de/index.php?lang=de" target="_blank">Zentralmoschee Köln</a> atau Central Mosque in Cologne. Pembinaan masjid ini pernah menjadi isu besar selama hampir setahun di Cologne, hampir 200 orang anti-Muslim mengadakan demonstrasi jalanan dan menaikkan sepanduk "Stop the Islamization of Europe" dan "Stop the Abuse of Religious Freedom".</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zrykWjGMuu8/U_WuSbVsbTI/AAAAAAAAYyM/BQ3HHhwCJuA/s1600/_DSC0131.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zrykWjGMuu8/U_WuSbVsbTI/AAAAAAAAYyM/BQ3HHhwCJuA/s1600/_DSC0131.JPG" height="422" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pembinaan masjid ini memakan belanja hampir 1.6 million-euro dan mampu memuatkan hampir 500 orang di dalamnya, kos pembinaan masjid ini dibiayai oleh hampir 200 orang kuat dari <a href="http://www.alarabiya.net/articles/2008/10/16/58385.html" target="_blank">Ahmadiyah Komuniti.</a> Kami juga berkongsi serba sedikit tentang dimana salah satu tanda-tanda akhir zaman dalam Islam ialah manusia bermegah-megahan dalam membangun Masjid, bukan pengisian masjid itu. Kami bukan sahaja mahu mengenali mereka, agama mereka dan negara mereka tetapi juga mahu mereka mengenali kami, agama kami dan negara kami dalam masa yang sama.</div>
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vATY5pUXbWs/U_WuWNxcXbI/AAAAAAAAYyU/o759OlEgLT8/s1600/GOPR5847.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vATY5pUXbWs/U_WuWNxcXbI/AAAAAAAAYyU/o759OlEgLT8/s1600/GOPR5847.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kemudian kami dibawa ke kota Cologne, begitu banyak seni-seni pada dinding, patung dan bermacam lagi yang kami tak pasti maksudnya dan menurut David, antara bandar-bandar di Germany ini, orang-orang di Cologne jika mereka lahir dan membesar di Cologne, mereka tidak akan sesekali meninggalkan bandar ini, mereka keluar untuk bercuti tetapi tidak akan berpindah kerana mereka cukup bangga dengan bandar mereka ini, dan untuk pengetahuan bandar Cologne ini merupakan pusat bagi segala media, baik dari segi lakonan, lagu dan berbagai lagi jenis hiburan.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
Pada keesokan harinya pula, awal pagi lagi David akan ke Berlin untuk job interview beliau dan tinggal hanya kami dan Sabrina, setelah bersarapan kami pergi cari simkad <a href="https://prepaidkundenbetreuung.eplus.de/content/prepaid/cfi56baf7pgl63d4/de.htx" target="_blank">Aldi</a> (untuk yang travel ke Germany dan sekitar EU), kemudian ke kedai basikal tukar tayar Azrulhan yang dah hampir petak!. dan ke outdoor store untuk compare price stove di kedai atau di online lebih murah, dan sememangnya di kedai lebih mahal!.<br />
<br />
Pada petangnya pula, Sabrina mempelawa kami untuk turut serta bersama beliau climbing indoor, tapi sedikit mahal dan kami tiada wang, kemudian setelah berfikir beliau ajak kami climbing outdoor, percuma sahaja kerana open for public dan kami pun bersetuju. Wall climbing kami pertama kali ini cukup baik juga untuk beginner!<br />

Pada hari ini pula Sabrina akan ke rumah keluarga David di utara Germany dan akan berjumpa David disana. Mereka beri kami tinggal di rumah mereka kerana kami belum lagi pulih sepenuhnya kerana kekejangan kaki mungkin kerana kayuhan malam dalam cuaca sejuk pada hari itu untuk merakam gambar bintang malam di sepanjang sungai Mosel dan Rhine. Bagi kami, masih adakah rakyat Malaysia, di negara kami akan buat seperti mereka ini. Meninggalkan rumah pada orang asing, ini adalah sebuah penghargaan bagi kami, kerana kepercayaan itu bukan sesuatu yang boleh dibeli dengan wang ringgit!<br />

Semalam merupakan hari pertama kami berkayuh sepanjang malam untuk tour kali ini. Walaupun sedikit berbahaya kerana perjalanan dari Frankfurt ke Koblenz kebanyakannya melalui highway dan laluan basikal sesetengahnya ditutup kerana proses baik pulih. Tapi kami tetap meneruskan perjalanan kerana ingin melihat pemandangan bandar di hilir sungai dan kegelapan malam disana untuk melihat bintang-bintang bertaburan di langit.</div>

Segala penat kami berbayar setelah kami sampai kesini, perjalanan bermula dari Mainz hingga Loch pemandangannya sungguh cantik tak dapat kami bayangkan dengan kata-kata. Laluan sepanjang hilir sungai, pemandangan bandar di seberang, castle di atas bukit, cukup buat kami rasa ini mungkin tempat untuk kami di masa tua kelak jika ada umur yang panjang. </div>

<br />Pemandangan pada waktu malam pula, kerana di sesetengah tempat yang gelap kami dapat lihat begitu banyak bintang bertaburan di langit dan inilah pertama kali kami dapat tangkap gambar bintang di malam hari. Kami ambil sedikit masa, belajar dan ambil gambar sebanyak yang boleh kerana kami ingin ingat memori ini, detik ini, kecantikan alam ini pada malam hari.<br /><br /><br />Kami tidur di pondok bas sahaja malam itu, dan awal pagi kami diberi lagi sekali kejutan. Keindahan tempat ini pada awal pagi, sungguh menakjubkan. Kami akan ingat saat ini..kami akan ingat sampai bila-bila.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

17 hari sudah kami mengembara, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Berbagai pengalaman kami timba, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Berbagai bahasa kami dengar, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Berbagai orang kami jumpa, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Berbagai kebaikan kami lihat,</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hidup merantau ini buat kami sentiasa dahaga,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dahagakan ilmu dari setiap ceruk pelusuk bumi yang kami jelajah,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kami suka berjumpa dengan orang tempatan di setiap negara,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Berkongsi ilmu, bertukar pengalaman, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ini adalah proses kami belajar, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tentang kehidupan,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pelajaran tentang kehidupan ini aku tak akan dapat di universiti berpagar,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ia terbuka luas di jalanan,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
setiap manusia yang aku jumpa sepanjang perjalanan,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
itulah guru aku, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
bukit-bukau, cenuram, hutan, jalan raya, gurun, lautan,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
itulah kelas aku,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
hujan, panas, ribut, salji, </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
itulah atap kelas aku,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
dan..</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
agama aku, keyakinan aku, doa aku, restu ibubapa aku, doa kawan-kawan dan yang mengenali aku,</div>

untuk kau yang sering berkata tiada masa tapi banyak melepak membuang masa,</div>

untuk kau yang asyik dengan urusan dunia, tapi alpa dengan urusan syurga neraka,</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
mengembara seluruh pelusuk dunia,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
mata ingin melihat alam semesta,</div>

Let's discover Luxembourg! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Luxembourg is a safer environment than most other European capital cities, and it would be rare to encounter any physical threat. Nevertheless, care is required in and around the train station area.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Such a beautiful place but it was all day raining here and we couldnt get much photo to be taken. Anyway thanks for the great hospitality given Luxembourgish! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you ever want a great lake touring experience from Luxembourg to Germany, cycle along the mosel lake route. Trust me, the scenery were spectacular! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Sesampai kami di sebuah bandar di Selatan Belgium, Virton. Kami disambut baik oleh komuniti Islam kecil disana. Setelah berbual dan solat Zuhur dan Asar bersama, perut kami<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"> sangat-sangat lapar. Lalu kami bertanya jika ada kedai makanan halal di sekitar bandar ini, lalu seorang lelaki membawa kami ke sebuah restoran kebab Turki, halal katanya. Lama betul tak makan ayam, sepanjang di Paris makan roti je memanjang.</span></div>

Kami bercadang ambil makanan berat sedikit. Tetapi berharga 8.50euro dan merupakan yang paling murah untuk hidangan pinggan. Duit ada 15euro sahaja ketika itu, tapi kami fikir tak mengapalah, berat badan pun dah menurun sepanjang di Paris. Lalu kami makan sahaja. Lelaki tadi yang membawa kami duduk berbual-bual bersama kawan beliau di meja lain, mungkin kerana tak pandai berbahasa Inggeris lalu kami kurang berkomunikasi.</div>

Sesampai di sebuah camping site di atas bukit, tapi sedihnya receptionist sudah tutup. Tiba-tiba ada sepasang suami isteri meminta kami call receptionist itu, tertera nombornya di pintu. Tetapi kami kata kami tiada phone untuk call, lalu mereka callkan untuk kami dan receptionist itu kata akan datang ke situ. Rupanya kata receptionist tu, dia nampak kami 3 jam sebelum dan tahu pasti kami akan kesini, lalu beliau dan isteri hanya berada di sekitar-sekitar sini.</div>

"Couch Surfing"<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hujan lebat di sekitar France amat menyukarkan perjalanan pengembaraan kami untuk masuk ke Germany. Sewaktu di Paris, aku nekad membuka satu akaun berbayar iaitu "couchsurfing" which most travellers using this app untuk mencari "host" yang sudi menumpangkan traveller seperti kami di rumah mereka.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-enjaDHypqRY/U-kIPHWUBbI/AAAAAAAAYtU/H-W2PvoRwxM/s1600/1924381_885925388101607_3317158774140785308_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-enjaDHypqRY/U-kIPHWUBbI/AAAAAAAAYtU/H-W2PvoRwxM/s1600/1924381_885925388101607_3317158774140785308_n.jpg" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sewaktu dalam perjalanan ke Reims dari Chateau Thierry, aku cuba mencari host yang sudi menumpangkan kami di Reims, dan dalam hampir 5 orang host, ada seorang yang profilenya quite interesting, travelling almost half of the world, backpacking. Namanya Patrick, sebaya bapa aku.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Setelah aku bercerita serba sedikit tentang aku dan "request host" akhirnya mendapat jawapan yang baik daripadanya, diberi alamat dan telephone number beliau lalu kami mengikut gps dan kesana. Sesampai sahaja kami disambut baik, berborak panjang dirumahnya, dihidangkan kopi panas dan seketika kemudian hujan selebat-lebatnya turun selama hampir sejam! Mereka kata kami sampai tepat pada masanya.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zWouf7_ePAw/U-kJ_A3ZXeI/AAAAAAAAYtk/F4_ovHeUTsc/s1600/GOPR5391.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zWouf7_ePAw/U-kJ_A3ZXeI/AAAAAAAAYtk/F4_ovHeUTsc/s1600/GOPR5391.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Setelah mandi, membasuh pakaian, keringkan, Patrick membawa kami pusing-pusing bandar, diceritakan tentang sejarah Reims ini. Tanpa disangka Reims ini merupakan sebuah tempat tumpuan pelancong juga kerana pernah terlibat sama ketika peperangan bersama Germany dahulu. Banyak monumen yang usianya hampir mencecah 1800 tahun!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Disini juga terdapat sebuah masjid yang besar pertama kalinya kami jumpa sepanjang perjalanan dari Sheffield, UK ke Reims, France. Ianya juga masih baru dibina pada tahun ini, kata Patrick.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dinner kami dihidangkan pasta, kek coklat dan sebuah menu rahsia mereka which is kami taknak beritahu ( untuk menu cafe kami nnti, in shaa Allah andai ada rezeki ). Diberi sebuah bilik, selesa, d<span style="text-align: center;">an kami tak rasa janggal kerana mereka melayan kami bagai keluarga mereka, tambahan pula anak lelaki mereka seusia kami. Patrick pernah ke Malaysia dan juga pernah di host oleh couchsurfing member di Kuala Lumpur. Disebabkan layanan yang begitu baik yang beliau terima dari host itu maka kami mendapat sesuatu yang sama. Ini bukan kali pertama beliau menerima host dari Malaysia ke rumah mereka, sudah 2 kali beliau menerima tetamu dari Malaysia!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Banyak kami pelajari, sejarah Reims, tentang pengembaraan kami bertukar-tukar pendapat, dan banyak lagi yang kami kongsikan. Isteri beliau juga bantu kami check weather forecast disepanjang perjalanan kami ke Germany dan alhamdulillah, the wind with us along the way!. </div>

Jadi ini sahaja entry hari ini. Hidup mengembara bukan kerana destinasi semata-mata, mengembara ini adalah memori yang kita cipta disepanjang perjalanan. Destinasi, jarak, masa, kelajuan tidak punya memori untuk mengingati kita, tetapi manusia yang kita jumpa disepanjang perjalanan, mereka akan mengingati kita, sampai bila-bila. Travel the right way, isi penuh memori sepanjang pengembaraan, kerana itu yang kita bawa balik untuk dicerita pada anak cucu kelak. Sekian.</div>

Sepanjang 2 hari kami bermalam di Kota Paris, menginap di Cittadines Hotel, di sponsor oleh sebuah agensi tourism bertapak di France dan dimiliki oleh orang Islam Malaysia, KMF(Keep Moving Forward/ Ku Muhammad Farid). Diberi layanan baik oleh mereka, dan terima kasih untuk penerangan tentang sejarah-sejarah bangunan-bangunan yang dilawati, terima kasih juga untuk masa yang diluangkan untuk kami.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Begitu banyak monumen-monumen bersejarah di Paris, seperti di Malaysia, Melaka adalah bandaraya bersejarah. Melawat Melaka bererti melawat Malaysia. Begitu juga seperti di Paris, melawat Paris bererti melawat Perancis.Kalau ada yang nak datang melawat Paris, France atleast memerlukan 1-2 minggu jika betul-betul nak kaji tentang tempat ini.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kebanyakan architecture bangunan mereka dipengaruhi oleh empayar Roman dan Greek. Ukiran mereka di setiap monumen mempunyai kisah yang tak jauh beza dengan Islam jika diteliti betul-betul. Eifflel tower akan berubah ketinggian mengikut musim kerana menggunakan besi dan akan mengembang ketika panas dan mengecut ketika musim sejuk. Eiffel tower juga merupakan tanda yang Perancis telah bertukar teknologi dari penciptaan bangunan menggunakan batu kepada besi. Bandar Perancis telah di rancang sebaik-baiknya oleh golongan elit mereka. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Akan tetapi jumlah immigrant yang datang ke Perancis begitu ramai dan kelihatan ramai homeless di sini, tambahan pula kerajaan France tidak mahu mengambil mereka-mereka ini bekerja. Jadi kebanyakan mereka terperangkap disini, banyak berlaku kejadian kecurian, sindiket meminta sedekah dan berbagai lagi. Ini kami dapat ketika berbual bersama seorang kenalan Perancis kami jumpa di jalanan.</div>

Menggunakan offline maps( Sygic) memang seronok sebab membawa kami melalui ka</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; text-align: start;">wasan pekan dan tepi sungai selain dari laluan kami sebelum ini yang kebanyakannya adalah highway, hutan simpan dan bukit-bukau. Tambahan pula dapat kami melihat struktur bangunan mereka, rumah dan segala macam persekitaran mereka.</span></div>

Berbeza dengan suasana yang kami lihat di England dan utara France di mana bandar mereka lebih bersih, tiada sampah, kurang manusia yang terburu-buru. Di paris, tak kurang suasana nya seperti di Kuala Lumpur, traffic jam, orang-orang yang melanggar peraturan tanpa respect pada cyclist mahupun pedestrian. Di bandarnya juga berbau sedikit hancing di sesetengah tempat.</div>

Day 5</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Selasa, 5th August 2014, 9.26am</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

"Jangan seronok apabila turun bukit dengan laju, kerana bumi tidak selalunya menurun, adakalanya mendatar, adakalanya perlu mendaki" </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Perjalanan dari Dannes ke Amiens pada mulanya mendatar sahaja, hanya sesekali kami kami mendaki bukit yang tinggi, tetapi pada 40km terakhir, semakin banyak bukit bukau dan kawasan lapang dan angin yang kuat. Kami meneruskan kayuhan dan berharap sampai di Amiens sebelum maghrib, kerana kami terlihat sebuah masjid di tengah bandar Amiens. Alhamdulillah, kami berjaya sampai tetapi maghrib sudah berlalu, dan ada beberapa orang Islam kelihatan baru selesai menunaikan solat Maghrib. Kami meminta izin untuk solat dan tidur disitu, lalu mereka membawa kami berjumpa imam. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wQqCA4uYwbk/U-kODh2fJaI/AAAAAAAAYuY/hA8ijsvay7U/s1600/983778_1446188288935048_2801397906119481303_n+(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wQqCA4uYwbk/U-kODh2fJaI/AAAAAAAAYuY/hA8ijsvay7U/s1600/983778_1446188288935048_2801397906119481303_n+(1).jpg" height="422" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Pada mulanya mereka menolak, lalu kami angguk faham dan hanya meminta izin untuk solat Maghrib sahaja dulu. Usai solat Maghrib, aku menadah tangan memohon sekali lagi "Ya Allah, Kau berilah kami beriktikaf di rumahMu ini, Kau lembutkanlah hati mereka ini untuk menerima kami, Kau terimalah doa kami yang sedang bermusafir ini Ya Allah!". Kemudian kami solat Isya' berjemaah, dan keluar.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Di luar masjid, ramai orang sedang bersalam-salaman. Mereka menegur kami dan salah seorang boleh berbahasa Inggeris, tanya dari mana kami datang dan mahu kemana. Setelah bercerita dan kami beritahu kami berkayuh sambil mengumpul dana untuk Palestin, berebut-rebut orang di luar masjid mengerumuni kami menghulurkan duit, hampir 40euro kesemuanya! MasyaAllah!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kemudian mereka tanya kami mahu kemana selepas ini, lalu kami beritahu yang kami mahu mencari makanan halal dan tempat untuk tidur. Lalu mereka menyuruh kami tidur di tapak masjid baru sebab kami beritahu kami mempunyai khemah dan jika ingin makan, terdapat sebuah kedai kebab berdekatan masjid dan seorang penjaga masjid bernama Omar akan membawa kami kesana.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tiba-tiba datang sekumpulan anak muda dan memberitahu kami mereka mahu membawa kami makan di McDonalds di seberang masjid, lalu kami tanya adakah halal dan mereka beritahu boleh makan burger fillet o' fish. Melalui gerak badan mereka ketika berbual bersama Omar seperti mereka menghalau Omar dan mereka ingin membawa kami, kemudian Omar beritahu dia pergi mengambil motor. Lalu kami mengikut mereka ke McDonalds, pada mulanya kami merasa was-was kerana mereka berpewatakan seperti kasar dan seperti budak-budak nakal, namun kami yakin Allah bersama kami. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sesampai di McDonalds mereka menyuruh kami tunggu sebentar sementara mereka membeli makanan secara drive-thru kerana sudah tidak boleh beli di dalam. Mereka membelikan kami 4 set burger fillet o' fish. Semasa kami sedang makan mereka berbincang bersama Omar dan kemudian mereka kata kami boleh tidur di Masjid. Kami tergamam dan tak henti-henti mengucapkan Alhamdulillah, bergenang air mata kerana doa diterima lagi oleh Allah swt.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Basikal kami disimpan di dalam stor, dan Omar membawa kami ke atas masjid, memberikan kami buah tembikai dan air oren. Walaupun segala perbualan kami seperti ayam dan itik, tetapi tiada bahasa yang diperlukan untuk kita membuat kebaikan. Subuh itu kami berjemaah bersama imam dan Omar membawa kami bersarapan roti dan kopi serta memberikan roti yang banyak dan kemudian meminta izin untuk beredar. Kami mengucapkan terima kasih dan meminta beliau mendoakan kami.</div>

<i>p/s: Jangan menilai manusia dari luaran, tak semestinya muka mereka jahat, mereka adalah pengganas. Tidak semestinya mereka lemah, mereka tak mampu melawan. Tidak semestinya mereka perlahan, mereka tidak akan maju kehadapan. Tidak semestinya mereka laju, mereka akan sentiasa menang. Semuanya adalah anugerah dari Illahi, Rasulullah saw diutuskan kepada kita juga untuk menyampaikan bukannya menilai dan menghukum. Hormat orang yang lebih dewasa dari kita, bukan bermakna kita laju, kita kuat, kita sihat, kita kaya bermakna kita baik dari yang serba kekurangan. Kerana jika Allah berkuasa menarik nikmat yang kita ada pada bila-bila masa sahaja. Sekian.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Aku minta korang baca entri aku kalini, harini untuk pertama kalinya air mata aku jatuh kerana aku merasakan betapa dekatnya Allah dengan aku. Pertamanya, aku mengembara dengan tidak mempunyai duit yang cukup untuk pengembaraan ini sebenarnya samada untuk makanan berkhasiat mahupun tempat tinggal dan hanya berharap makanan yang dibawa dari Malaysia dan tidur di khemah sahaja.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apabila sudah terlalu lama berkayuh dari London ingin menuju ke Dover kami keletihan dan kelaparan, kami singgah makan roti dan minum air di sebuah hentian basikal di Cyclopark. Sesudah itu, ada seorang pekerja disitu menegur kami dan bertanya tentang pengembaraan kami, dengan tak disangka beliau ajak kami masuk balik, panggil manager dan beri kami makanan(cookies) dan beritahu, jika ada apa2, just call him and he will come help. Plus beliau kata beliau akan donate sekali untuk cause kami dan jika lagi sebulan kami nak sampai ke Malaysia, dia minta beritahu dia dan dia mahu datang ke Malaysia menyambut kami. Masya Allah. dan kemudian datang lagi cyclist2 disitu bertukar-tukar kad kerana mereka juga ingin membantu </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Setelah kami meneruskan perjalanan kembali, hari semakin gelap di Catham, dan kami mencari tempat untuk kami camp, namun tiada tmpat yg sesuai dan kami mencari masjid berdekatan, jumpa sebuah dan tanpa berlengah kami menuju kesana dan meminta izin untuk beriktikaf di situ namun akibat rules di kawasan itu segala yg berlaku di dalam masjid perlu di beritahu terlebih dahulu pada orang atasan, jadi apabila sudah malam begini mereka tak dapat membantu dan terpaksa menolak. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kami meminta izin untuk solat berjemaah dan didalamnya aku berdoa "Ya Allah, izinkan aku tidur semalaman di rumahMu, lembutkan hati mereka menerima kunjungan kami, terima lah doa aku yg sedang bermusafir keranaMu, Amin". Kemudian setelah selesai solat jemaah Isya', ada seorang hamba Allah serba putih bernama Ahmad Raqib yang bukannya orang tempatan dikawasan itu, tetapi dari kawasan bersebelahan Catham, dan beliau membawa kami ke sebuah masjid lagi satu untuk mencuba nasib minta iktikaf disana. Alhamdulillah, kami disambut baik, dan diberi keizinan tinggal semalaman di masjid ini dan penjaganya dari Pakistan tetapi keluarganya tinggal di London. Sebelum pakcik tua berpakaian serba putih itu (ahmad Raqib) pergi beliau menghulurkan 30 pound dan memberitahu, sebelum beliau ke masjid lagi satu tadi untuk maghrib dan isya' ada seseorang datang kepadanya memberikan duit itu untuk disedekahkan kepada tabung Palestin. Apabila beliau dengar yg kami buat untuk Palestin lantas dia menyerahkan duit tu kepada kami. Masya Allah. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dan penjaga masjid ini melayan kami disini laksana seorang VVIP, buatkan kami makanan, panaskan air susu, bagi biskut, buatkan air buah special beliau dan bermacam lagi kebaikan yang aku sendiri rasai seperti ketika di markas Yala sewaktu mengembara 3 negara pada Februari lepas.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Betapa segalanya telah tertulis, betapa dekatnya Allah bersama kami, kita tak perlu risau jika kita tidak berharta, kerana semua rezeki itu adalah kurniaan dariNya, jika kau yakin denganNya, in shaa ALLAH. Segalanya akan dipermudahkan.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Inilah pengembaraan touring berbasikal yang sebenarnya, ia tak pernah kerana destinasi dan masa, tetapi memori dan pengalaman di sepanjang perjalanan itu yg akan mengajar kita ttg erti kehidupan sebenar. Kebaikan datang dari siapa2, dimana2, tk kira masa dan aku tahu Allah sentiasa bersama aku, kerana aku yakin padaNya :') </div>

Assalammualaikum, ini merupakan first entry kami untuk travelogue "<a href="https://www.facebook.com/journeytohomelandbySSMY" target="_blank">Journey to Homeland by SSMY</a>". Ini adalah kisah perjuangan 4 sekawan berjuang dalam mengejar impian untuk merentas dunia dengan berbasikal!. Selama hampir setahun lebih kami menyimpan impian ini, berjumpa orang-orang yang kami harap dapat membantu menjadikan impian ini suatu realiti, tapi sampai ke hari terakhir kami di Malaysia, masih tiada satu jawapan pun dari mana-mana pihak. Kami taknak lagi menunggu harapan palsu, mendengar kata-kata manis bahawa mereka telah buat sehabis baik, dan yang sebenarnya kami tahu, impian kami ini bagi mereka hanyalah sebuah angan-angan kosong. Jadi kami telah buat keputusan, untuk lakukan sahaja apa yang kami telah impikan selama ini, jika kami tidak buat sekarang dan hanya menunggu, impian ini akan terkubur begitu sahaja. Kami beli tiket penerbangan ke London, yang paling murah dengan menaiki Vietnam Airlines pada 18hb July( tarikh yang sama flight MAS terhempas di Ukraine), membawa apa sahaja bekalan yang ada, basikal yang ada( walaupun tidak sesuai) tapi bagi kami jika berani mengimpikan impian yang gila, kau mesti cukup gila untuk jadikannya realiti!.<br />

Alhamdulillah penerbangan kami berjalan dengan lancar(cuma hampir-hampir termakan babi sebab tak tengok menu sebelum pilih makanan). Sesampai kami di London Gatwick airport setelah 9 jam di dalam kapal terbang, 2 jam di Vietnam airport dan merentas sejauh 10,000km dari Malaysia ke England. Kami cuba cari apa medium untuk contact Bad untuk beritahu yang kami sudah sampai disini( England). Akhirnya Bad berjaya jumpa kami dan satu masalah yang kami hadapi ketika sampai disana ialah bagaimana kami hendak membawa kotak-kotak basikal dan bag ke Sheffield yang mengambil masa 3 jam untuk kesana. Akhirnya kami menarik sahaja kotak-kotak itu dari satu tempat ke satu tempat hingga sampai di Sheffield. Kami menaiki train dari Gatwick airport ke St. Pancras dan tukar train disitu ke Sheffield dan menaiki taxi ke rumah sewa bad di Broomhall, Sheffield.<br />

Kehidupan sebagai seorang muslim di Sheffield ini amatlah mencabar, kerana kami berpuasa selama 19 jam sehari, menahan lapar dan dahaga, bersahur pada jam 3.15am dan berbuka pada 9.15pm, kemudian Isyak pada jam 11.30pm dertan tarawih habis pada pukul 12am. Balik tidur dan pukul 2.30am dah nak bangun balik untuk bersahur, begitulah rutin harian seorang muslim di Sheffield. Seronoknya disini, masjid disini sentiasa penuh orang bertarawih walaupun pada minggu-minggu terakhir berpuasa dan raya disini pula hanya disambut sehari sahaja kerana mereka mengejar ganjaran pada bulan ramadhan dan bukannya mengejar kemenangan pada bulan Syawal, sungguh berbeza dengan Malaysia.<br />
<br />Hari kelima kami disini, kami berkayuh ke kawasan tertinggi di Sheffield iaitu Peak District National Park, kawasan tinggi yang menghubungkan Sheffield dan Manchester. Perjalanan kesana amatlah sukar kerana sepanjang masa kami perlu berkayuh mendaki bukit-bukit yang tinggi dan tambahan pula dengan angin sejuk walaupun dalam musim summer, namun segalanya berbaloi. Keindahan alam yang cukup membuatkan kami terpegun seketika, rasa seperti tidak mahu balik. Kami berkayuh mendaki dari satu bukit ke bukit yang lain. Satu pengalaman yang cukup berharga, entah apa lagi yang kami akan lihat sepanjang 29,000km kelak.</div>

<br /></div>
<br />Bermula dengan bisnes kecil-kecilan adalah strategi tepat untuk anak muda mengorak langkah dalam perniagaan. Itu antara percaturan awal dua anak muda yang berasal dari Johor Bharu dalam merealisasikan hasrat memiliki label baju jenama sendiri. SickSiders Malaysia (SSM) tergolong antara puluhan peniaga muda khususnya dalam bidang pakaian yang tidak melepaskan peluang turut serta sepanjang penganjuran Hari Belia Negara 2014, berlangsung di Putrajaya, baru-baru ini.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Berpeluang menemu ramah mereka bertanyakan perihal perniagaan dan impian masa depan membuatkan penulis kagum dengan semangat yang ada. Muhammad Adib Mohamad Ali dan Mohd Azrulhan Mohd Shafei masing-masing mempunyai tanggungjawab dan skop kerja sendiri bagi memastikan produk keluaran mereka mencapai sasaran.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Bertapak sejak 2005 sebagai label baju indie dan ditubuhkan secara rasmi sebagai syarikat Sick Siders Enterprise, tahun lalu memberi penanda aras baru bagi mereka untuk lebih bekerja keras mengangkat jenama anak tempatan ke peringkat lebih tinggi.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>GAYA HIDUP JADI TEMA</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ditanya apakah elemen yang cuba mereka tonjolkan dalam setiap rekaan baju, Azrulhan berkata, pada peringkat awal, mereka masih mencari identiti sendiri. Justeru, kedua-duanya setuju untuk meletakkan minat dan hobi sebagai tema rekaan dalam setiap produk.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Pada peringkat permulaan, kami gabungkan segala macam minat seperti berbasikal, graffiti, ‘skateboarding’ dan mengembara. Tapi selepas hampir sembilan tahun dalam bidang ini, kami wujudkan elemen utama sebagai identiti produk iaitu berbasikal dan mengembara. Jadi, setiap produk ada ciri-ciri gaya hidup penunggang basikal seperti baju dan ‘gear’ hinggalah kepada mengembara dengan cara paling mudah iaitu ‘backpacking’ ataupun ‘bikepacking’.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Setiap rekaan yang atas baju ada kisahnya tersendiri dan kebanyakannya berkaitan jatuh bangun kami dalam bidang ini,” katanya.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Adib menambah, terdetik idea untuk mewujudkan label baju sendiri kerana mereka melihat kebanyakan rekaan sedia ada tidak mempunyai identiti sendiri. Disebabkan itu, mereka terfikir kenapa tidak mencuba untuk mengeluarkan jenama sendiri yang rekaannya lebih spesifik. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Kami tubuhkan SSM bukan untuk syok sendiri, tapi untuk memberi inspirasi kepada orang lain sama ada pembeli, penyokong ataupun orang ramai kejar impian mereka. Kami banyak lakukan aktiviti mengembara dan berbasikal untuk cabar diri dan alhamdulillah, ramai memberi maklum balas positif dan berjaya membuka mata banyak pihak untuk kejar impian masing-masing tanpa perlu ada rasa ragu-ragu,” katanya.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>KUTUKAN CABARAN PALING BESAR</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Letakkan minat dan semangat seiring dalam mencapai apa saja diinginkan. Bagi Adib, SSM wujud berteraskan minat dan keazaman yang kukuh dalam melonjakkan diri bukan hanya berada pada takuk sama sampai bila-bila.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Kami sentiasa berpegang pada kata ‘Passion before Fashion’. Jika kita buat kerana sesuatu yang kita minat, kita tidak akan merasa bosan dan tak cepat berhenti. Jika bercakap perihal berniaga, bagi kami, keuntungan yang kami dapat itu ibarat bonus kerana yang lebih puas hati apabila dapat lakukan apa yang kita minat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Dari segi persaingan, memang ada bahkan industri ini makin berkembang walaupun ramai bermula secara kecil-kecilan. Kami tak lihat ia sebagai ancaman tetapi lebih kepada percambahan idea anak muda tempatan ke arah lebih kreatif untuk mencorak masa depan lebih berjaya. Jatuh bangun adalah lumrah dalam apa juga yang kita lakukan, tetapi jika kita mempunyai sesuatu yang boleh dipegang kukuh tidak kiralah minat ataupun cita-cita, pasti tidak mudah untuk menyerah kalah,” katanya.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Katanya lagi, bertambahnya bilangan peniaga muda adalah suatu fenomena baik dan perlu dilihat dari sudut positif kerana ramai anak muda sudah pandai mencari duit tanpa memerlukan sijil, diploma ataupun ijazah untuk menjual kreativiti sendiri. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Nasihat saya kepada mereka agar jangan hanya gunakan istilah cetak dan jual untuk berada lebih lama dalam bidang ini. Biarlah kita mempunyai identiti sendiri untuk dibanggakan dan tidak menjadi seperti lalang yang hanya mengikut kepada trend semasa,” katanya.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Menurut Azrulhan, cabaran yang paling besar bagi SSM bukanlah dari segi kewangan ataupun ditindas orang lain, ia hanyalah tohmahan dan kutukan dilemparkan orang yang mindanya tahap rendah. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Kami ingin berterima kasih kepada kelompok yang menolak, membenci idea kami kerana merekalah yang buatkan SSM sentiasa ingin menjadi yang terbaik dan terus berusaha. Pada pandangan saya, anda patut berbangga kerana mereka akan membuatkan anda sentiasa berusaha keras ke arah lebih baik,” katanya.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>FIKIR LEBIH JAUH</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Walaupun berstatus peniaga indie dan usahawan muda, penulis yakin impian untuk kembangkan perniagaan ke pasaran luar perlu ada. Matlamat ini turut dikongsi Azrulhan dengan berkata, SSM tidak pernah mengehadkan sesuatu barangan hanya untuk dijual di dalam negara. Bagi mereka, perlu sentiasa berfikir bagaimana untuk mendapat kepercayaan orang luar terhadap label SSM dan mampu berdiri setaraf produk luar.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Harapan kami agar industri ini akan terus disokong anak muda tempatan baik mereka yang bertapak di dalam negara mahupun di luar. Jika kita mampu membangunkan industri ini, saya percaya penggiat industri akan terus memperbaiki idea dan mutu barangan dari semasa ke semasa dan sentiasa berfikir untuk membawa label ke tahap lebih tinggi. Bukan untuk keuntungan semata-mata, tetapi jika kreativiti anak muda Malaysia diiktiraf di luar pastinya akan memberi impak besar kepada orang lain sebagai pengaruh untuk mereka mulakan langkah mencapai cita-cita yang tersembunyi selama ini,” katanya.</div>
