National Service? Yes, I
knew that not everyone are willing to join PLKN. But I’m so lucky that I have
been chosen to join. The three-month program, which is started in December 2003
began as way to encourage friendship between youths of certain ages from
different races and ethnic groups. But, this program was halted for one year in
2015 due to the federal government’s efforts to cut spending.
I was stationed at Kem PLKN Similajau, Bintulu Sarawak. I have never come
before this even Bintulu only four hours from Sibu. That is why I can’t wait to
get there. Bintulu is a city that produce natural gas. Bintulu is a developing
city.
From Sibu to Bintulu trip takes about four hours from Sibu. I was sent by
my two uncles during the registration at Dataran Sibu. I have mix feeling that
time because on the other side of I felt excited and the other side I felt sad.
I felt sad because I have to stayed far from my family. I learned many things while in national service's camp.
So, we had divided into two groups which is Group 6 and 7.
