Jamie Dornan / our new Mr Grey






Stow your twitchy palms ladies.
AnastasiaAnastasia Steele has finally met her match. Irish actor Jamie Dornan is in final talks to play the billionarie BDSM enthusiast Christian Grey in the adaptation of EL James’ best-seller Fifty Shades of Grey. Focus/Universal, declined to confirm, but an inside source says the deal is in its final stages. The studio, to say nothing of the trilogy’s ardent fans, was thrown into overdrive when the original Christian, Sons of Anarchy star Charlie Hunnam, abruptly bowed out of the production two weeks ago. The casting of 31-year-old Dornan alongside Dakota Johnson’s Anastasia will hopefully steady director Sam Taylor-Johnson’s production that is slated to begin shooting mid-November.

Lazyboy Travelodge Batu Feringgi Penang

Dibelakang Lebanese Restaurant
Jalan sepanjang Batu Feringgi..terletak dibelakang Happy Mart



Travelodge ni terletak di Batu Feringgi.Kebanyakan pelanggan adalah mat saleh dan foreigner.
Ada lounge,reading corner,mini studio dan dapur.
Ada lebih kurang 16 bilik di sini berkadar RM50-100..banyak positif review dalam tripadvisor.Dimiliki oleh pengusaha Melayu dan berkonsep santai.

satu lorong dengan Senja Motel..sini banyak motel dimiliki oleh orang India.tiada parking yer..so pandai lah nak parking kt the Ship ke apa.

tersenarai dalam TripAdvisor dan Hostelebooker

pintu masuk..aka lobby lounge
sudut buku dan majalah


Ada hammock dan meja-kerusi
dapur..boleh masak kat sini..

keadaan bilik..



depan bilik ada hammock..boleh melepak bila-bila suka
Frankly speaking,travelodge ni lebih sesuai untuk backpackers.Walau ada bilik family (family room rate RM80) yg katil double decker tapi tiada TV dan bilik sempit.Jika dihotel lain dengan rate ni ada TV dan bilik luas..tapi terpulang pada citarasa masing-masing.Bagi aku tak kisah sangat tapi bila nak makan tu (bawa outside food/ take away) agak sesak sikit.Bagaimanapun kemudahan untuk bersantai seperti studio,ruang bacaan dan wifi yang laju memang best.Mungkin owner ni nak pengunjung lebih kan masa beramah mesra dengan backpackers mat saleh,jangan dok terperap dalam bilik saja.
Dan lodge ni dekat dengan pantai..so jalan kaki melalui The Ship tu.. (parking keta situ pun boleh) dan terus jalan ke pantai di seberang jalan.Landmark LAzyboy adalah dibelakang Happy Mart dan restoren Lebanon.Masuk melalui lorong tu.
pantai Batu Feringghi
Jalan melalui The Ship ni untuk ke pantai

Dekat sini juga memang berhadapan Pasar Malam Batu Feringghi yang terkenal tu.Untuk makan tak susah,malam ada Medan Selera dan siang ada gerai dekat Parkroyal Hotel tu.

Negara yang rakyat Malaysia boleh lawati tanpa visa/senarai perlu visa- update Julai 2019

contoh passport Malaysia
contoh visa yang dilekatkan dalam muka surat passport (imej Google)

Sebagai rakyat Malaysia, negara berdaulat yang mempunyai reputasi yang baik di dunia, kita  pemegang passport Malaysia sememangnya bertuah kerana boleh masuk ke banyak negara dunia tanpa perlukan visa. Untuk tahun 2017, rakyat Malaysia boleh masuk ke 164 negara tanpa visa.

Passport adalah buku pengenalan identiti yang bertindak sebagai kad pengenalan di luar negara.
Sementara visa  adalah kebenaran bertulis untuk memasuki sesebuah negara yang ditampal/lekat dalam passport tersebut. Jadi semua negara yang kita nak masuk perlukan passport, tapi tak semua negara perlukan visa. Ramai jgk yang confused apa itu passport dan visa.

Passport adalah buku merah tu..yang wajib ada bila masuk ke negara lain. Bila masuk negara tu, imigresen akan cop di passport tu.
Dan visa adalah kebenaran untuk masuk sesebuah negara yang perlu di mohon oleh pelawat yang nak melawat ke sana.
 Jadi bagi negara yang tak perlukan visa, kita hanya bawak passport je untuk masuk seperti negara Asean dan Eropah. Dan negara yang perlukan visa kita perlu ada kedua-duanya- passport dan visa untuk masuk ke negaranya.
Contohnya nak masuk Korea Selatan, bawak je passport (pastikan tamat tempoh lebih dari 6 bulan).
Dan bagi negara China, kena keduanya iaitu ada pasport dan visa sekali. (visa mohon awal sebelum nak melawwat sana).

Terima kasih kepada Dr Mahathir...bila pergi oversea kita cakap je dari Malaysia..automatik diorang akan cakap..oo I know Mahathir Mohamad..memang diakui reputasi Malaysia sangat tinggi dengan kepimpinan beliau..kadang tu nak nangispun ada kenangkan betapa beliau berjaya membawa malaysia begitu globally..nama Mahathir sendiri membawa brand Malaysia dan works like a magic..rasanya sgt susah nk ada even dalam 50 tahun lagi pemimpin yang truly leadership figure seperti beliau jadi kagumilah dan hargailah beliau semasa beliau masih hidup dan menyumbang idea kepada negara. Apa yang kita kecapi masa kini adalah hasil dari pandangan jauh beliau memakmurkan negara.

Bagi  negara Eropah dan kebanyakan negara maju kita tak perlukan visa pun dan .. kita juga mempunyai access dengan Schengen Visa,dimana kita boleh ke negara tersebut tanpa visa.So ambillah peluang ini. Dan kita patut rasa bangga. Jadi sapa yang nak rasa nak golek-golek main salji atau teringin nak nyanyi lagu hindustan kat ladang tulip..jangan malu-malu ok.




Dan dibawah  adalah senarai negara yang tak perlu pre- visa (tp Australia still kena ETA) dan negara seperti China dan USA takde dibawah senarai ni kerana ia perlukan permohonan visa untuk memasukinya.
(India dah ada eTV (apply online, hantar online,bayar online).

~tolong check maklumat keperluan visa dari masa ke semasa di portal jabatan imigresen kerana keperluan visa sentiasa berubah.
Keperluan visa untuk warganegara Malaysia ialah sekatan masuk pentadbiran oleh pihak berkuasa negeri lain yang diletakkan pada warganegara Malaysia. Sehingga 02 Julai 2019, warganegara Malaysia mempunyai visa atau visa percuma atas akses ketibaan ke 176 negara dan wilayah, menduduki tempat ke-13 pasport Malaysia mengikut Indeks Pasport Henley, menjadikannya pasport ke-peringkat tertinggi ke-2 di Asia Tenggara selepas Singapura, ranking ke-4 tertinggi di Asia dan pasport tertinggi di dunia membangun dan di kalangan negara majoriti Muslim.


 Walaupun pasport Malaysia menanggung tulisan "Pasport ini sah untuk semua negara kecuali Israel" dan kerajaan Malaysia secara rasmi membenarkan perjalanan ke Israel untuk jemaah Kristian sahaja, sekatan perjalanan yang dikenakan oleh kerajaan Malaysia tidak memberi kesan kepada kerajaan Israel, yang mengeluarkan visa kepada warganegara Malaysia mengikut peraturan Israel.

 Pada September 2017, Malaysia mengumumkan larangan ke atas semua warganegara Malaysia dari perjalanan ke Korea Utara, berikutan hubungan Malaysia-Korea yang tegang selepas pembunuhan Kim Jong-nam di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur.

APEC Business Travel Card[edit]


  Full members of the scheme
  Transitional members (United States, Canada)
Holders of an APEC Business Travel Card (ABTC) travelling on business do not require a visa to the following countries:[352]
1 – up to 90 days
2 – up to 60 days
3 – up to 59 days
The card must be used in conjunction with a passport and has the following advantages:[353]
  • no need to apply for a visa or entry permit to APEC countries, as the card is treated as such (except by  Canada and  United States)
  • undertake legitimate business in participating economies
  • expedited border crossing in all member economies, including transitional members
  • expedited scheduling of visa interview (United States)

Non-visa restrictions[edit]

This section is transcluded from Non-visa travel restrictions. (edit | history)
Many countries have entry restrictions on foreigners that go beyond the common requirement of having either a valid visa or a visa exemption. Such restrictions may be health related or impose additional documentation requirements on certain classes of people for diplomatic or political purposes.

Passport validity length[edit]

In the absence of specific bilateral agreements, countries requiring passports to be valid for at least 6 more months on arrival include Afghanistan, Algeria, Anguilla, Bahrain,[354] Bhutan, Botswana, British Virgin Islands, Brunei, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Costa Rica, Côte d'Ivoire, Curaçao, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Fiji, Gabon, Guinea Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Israel,[355] Jordan, Kenya, Kiribati, Kuwait, Laos, Madagascar, Malaysia, Maldives, Marshall Islands, Mongolia, Myanmar, Namibia, Nepal, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Oman, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Qatar, Rwanda, Samoa, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname, Tanzania, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, Vanuatu, Venezuela, and Vietnam.[356]
Turkey requires passports to be valid for at least 150 days upon entry.
Countries requiring passports valid for at least 4 months on arrival include Micronesia and Zambia.
Countries requiring passports with a validity of at least 3 months beyond the date of intended departure include European Union countries (except the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom); Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland (all with an exception made for EEA and Swiss nationals). Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Nauru, Moldova, and New Zealand also require 3 months validity beyond the date of the bearer's intended departure.
Countries requiring passports valid for at least 3 months validity upon arrival include Albania, Honduras, North Macedonia, Panama, and Senegal.
Bermuda requires passports to be valid for at least 45 days upon entry.
Countries that require a passport validity of at least one month beyond the date of intended departure include Eritrea, Hong Kong, Lebanon, Macau, and South Africa.
Other countries require either a passport valid on arrival or a passport valid throughout the period of the intended stay. Some countries have bilateral agreements with other countries to shorten the period of passport validity required for each other's citizens[357][358] or even accept passports that have already expired (but not been cancelled).[359]

Blank passport pages[edit]

Many countries require a minimum number of blank pages in the passport being presented, generally one or two pages.[360] Endorsement pages, which often appear after the visa pages, are not counted as being available.

Vaccination[edit]


An International Certificate of Vaccination required to prove that someone has been vaccinated against yellow fever
Main article: Carte Jaune
Some other countries require vaccination only if the passenger is coming from an infected area or has visited one recently.[361]

Israeli stamps[edit]


Israeli border control Entry Permit (issued as a stand-alone document rather than a stamp affixed in a passport)
Kuwait,[362] Lebanon,[363] Libya,[364] Saudi Arabia,[365] Sudan,[366] Syria,[367] and Yemen[368] do not allow entry to people with passport stamps from Israel or whose passports have either a used or an unused Israeli visa, or where there is evidence of previous travel to Israel such as entry or exit stamps from neighbouring border posts in transit countries such as Jordan and Egypt.
To circumvent this Arab League boycott of Israel, the Israeli immigration services have now mostly ceased to stamp foreign nationals' passports on either entry to or exit from Israel. Since 15 January 2013, Israel no longer stamps foreign passports at Ben Gurion Airport, giving passengers a card instead that reads: "Since January 2013 a pilot scheme has been introduced whereby visitors are given an entry card instead of an entry stamp on arrival. You should keep this card with your passport until you leave. This is evidence of your legal entry into Israel and may be required, particularly at any crossing points into the Occupied Palestinian Territories." [369] Passports are still (as of 22 June 2017) stamped at Erez when travelling into and out of Gaza. Also, passports are still stamped (as of 22 June 2017) at the Jordan Valley/Sheikh Hussein and Yitzhak Rabin/Arava land borders with Jordan.
Iran refuses admission to holders of passports containing an Israeli visa or stamp that is less than 12 months old.

Armenian ethnicity[edit]

Main article: Armenia–Azerbaijan relations
Due to a state of war existing between Armenia and Azerbaijan, the government of Azerbaijan not only bans entry of citizens from Armenia, but also all citizens and nationals of any other country who are of Armenian descent, to the Republic of Azerbaijan[370][371] (although there have been exceptions, notably for Armenia's participation at the 2015 European Games held in Azerbaijan).
Azerbaijan also strictly bans any visit by foreign citizens to the separatist region of Nagorno-Karabakh[372] (the de facto independent Republic of Artsakh), its surrounding territories, and the Azerbaijani exclaves of Karki, Yuxarı Əskipara, Barxudarlı, and Sofulu which are de jure part of Azerbaijan but under the control of Armenia, without the prior consent of the government of Azerbaijan. Foreign citizens who enter these territories will be permanently banned from entering the Republic of Azerbaijan[373] and will be included in their "list of personae non gratae".[374] As of 21 February 2019, the list mentioned 803 people.
Upon request, the authorities of the largely unrecognised Republic of Artsakh may attach their visa and/or stamps to a separate piece of paper in order to avoid detection of travel to their territory.

Criminal record[edit]

Some countries, including Australia, Canada, Fiji, New Zealand and the United States,[375] routinely deny entry to non-citizens who have a criminal record.

Persona non grata[edit]

The government of a country can declare a diplomat persona non grata, banning their entry into that country. In non-diplomatic use, the authorities of a country may also declare a foreigner persona non grata permanently or temporarily, usually because of unlawful activity.

Biometrics[edit]

See also: Countries applying biometrics

A fingerprint scanner at Dulles International Airportcollects biometric data on visitors, which can be used for confirming identities.
Several countries mandate that all travellers, or all foreign travellers, be fingerprinted on arrival and will refuse admission to or even arrest those travellers that refuse to comply. In some countries, such as the United States, this may apply even to transit passengers who merely wish to quickly change planes rather than go landside.[376]
Fingerprinting countries include Afghanistan,[377][378] Argentina,[379] Brunei, Cambodia,[380] China,[381] Ethiopia,[382] Ghana, India, Japan[383][384], Kenya (fingerprints and photo) [385], Malaysia upon entry and departure,[386] Paraguay, Saudi Arabia,[387] Singapore, South Korea,[388] Taiwan, Uganda[389] and the United States.
Many countries also require a photo be taken of people entering the country. The United States, which does not fully implement exit control formalities at its land frontiers (although long mandated by its legislature),[390] [391] [392] intends to implement facial recognition for passengers departing from international airports to identify people who overstay their visa.[393]
Together with fingerprint and face recognition, iris scanning is one of three biometric identification technologies internationally standardised since 2006 by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) for use in e-passports[394] and the United Arab Emirates conducts iris scanning on visitors who need to apply for a visa.[395][396]
