Dungun - My Hometown
Heading straight down to kuala from Sura Gate
Kuala Dungun
The blue building - Jong Guling went there to make a passport. I had told him he needed one if he want to travel to Kuantan. The Immigration staff there laughed so hard Dungun started to shake. Jong Guling came after me and I ran like I had never ran before. 
At the end of this road is Sekolah Llaki Dungun - my primary school. It's called different now.
A lone guy walking as if he owns the town. I have a strong feeling he does.
7km coastal drive all the way up to UiTM - where the road ends at the tip. The beach is very clean. Here's to you my Dungun folks!

Very2x clean..
Bergen, UiTM Dungun!!! I visited the place in late seventies and that's telling my age. The nights were so cold - and i thought it was the coldest place on earth - couldnt sleep.
KamalMusa: Yes, it's very clean. Close to European standard.
Kak Teh: That must be the old campus (Sura Gate). They've moved to Sura Hujung - at the end of the coastal drive right until Bukit Bauk. Yes, Dungun can get pretty cold during the monsoon. I've got some pictures of the area where Ku Keng used to live. Was Abang Wan in Dungun too at that time?
They've removed the houses along the road facing Kelab Kerajaan. Padang Dewan now is a dataran. But they've kept intact the indoor badminton court. It's a nice town now Dungun is.
Oh really? No, masa tu tak kenal pun lagi, maka tak cinta. But after we got married we went visiting some relatives there whose names I have forgotten. But, yes, I do remember Dungun. Thanks for info on the latest.
Bergen, this morning I arrived from Madinah and what did I see? a pictorial offering of my hometown! tqtq!
Salam Bergen
The last two pictures have such a serene effect. Peaceful. Calm.
cantik nya Dungun! been to Dungun once(so as what mak told me)- sent my eldest sister to ITM Dungun , but i have no memories bout it at all coz i was barely 4 yrs kot that time. :)
Dear En Bergen, now i could see why you write so beautiful in your blog. Have a great balik kampung En Bergen!
A'kum Bergen, mana hilang sebenarnya. Anyway, tqvm pasal siarkan new pic of dungun. Gambar yang nak tuju ke UiTM sura hujung tu kalu dari teluk lipat mesti lalu ikut rumah saya. Very nice pantai dungun ni. Letaklah gambar kenaan dungun ni banyak2 supaya orang tahu betapa cantiknya Dungun Kiter.
Tuan Bergen,
Mula-mula tulis Semail Guling, kemudian tukar Jong Guling, tuh orang yang sama ke? Kalu Semail Guling tu yang saya kenal pomeng motor.
Kak Teh: You're welcome, ma'am.
Kama At-Tarawis: My pleasure, ma'am.
Fauziah Ismail: You have the eye photograher's eyes.
F: Go there for holiday. It's not a commercial destination and it's peaceful. There are a couple of good chalets built facing the sea along the coastal drive.
Fi-sha: Thank you, ma'am
TATA: Lalu rumah kat rumah awak Jalan Penglima. Rumah tu dah renovated.
Awang: LOL - it's the same guy. I thought I should protect his identity by re-naming him Jong in my entry, but the Guling gave it away. You can't hide when you have a handle like that.
Thank you for coming, folks. You people have a nice day now, y'hear?
Tuan Berger,
Hahaha...agok doh! Dungun ada sorang je orang panggil Semail Guling...nok kenal orang musti ada gelarang belakang nama, sama ada gelarang ataupun nama kapong. Dok gitu?
Bergengg,
Rumah 155, jalan penglima tu dah lama the late my father jual kepada Mr aziz posmeng. then after that we all moved to kg bukit catak untill tahun 2005 kita orang built up new house kat kg sura tengah (depan pantai sura) n stay kat situ. dekatlah sikit ngan kaum keluarga kat teluk lipat tu. Rumah u kat tanah lot tu sapa yang stay.
Never been there yet. Look like a very nice place to visit according 2 ur pic.
Salam Bergen.
I had fond memories of Dungung.
I had my District Health Survey done there back in 1985 and we stayed one of the Pusat Kesihatan building by the seaside.We were there for 3 weeks. I can remember much about what I did during the surveys but I do remember we had a gala of a time.
We visited my friend Piang whose father was a teacher cum keropok maker ie Cikgu Mat Kepok who at that time had moved to Batu 5 just before going up Bukit Bauk( which was said to be famous for the flying pontianaks!)
We went fishing at the Dungung River's bridge at night.
The best part was our trip to Pulau Tenggol using a fishing boat.
It was a beautiful island with a small strip of beach.
Thanks for this wonderful entry bro.
OMG
MY HOME TOWN TOO
oh gawd it's been ages :'O thank you so much for the pics!
(ooh do you remember kuala abang :'O)
I'm not familiar with Dungun much. But my family pass-by Dungun everytime we want to blk kg in Kuala Trg from Kemaman. And last week, my dad took us for minum pagi break at Dungun on our way balik kg..somewhere near Pasar Dungun.
And your entry came into my mind, Mr. Bergen. Keep up your good work promoting Dungun.. :-)
Hai Mr. Bergen, never thought, another blog about Dungun except those two fomous blog . Very glad to see those pictures. Me too is Dungunan. What make you so proud about Dungun?...instead of the beauty and the peace we feel living in Dungun...
