Lumut

Lumut is a small town (population 31,880) in the state of Perak, Malaysia, situated about 84 km from Ipoh, 12 km from the town of Sitiawan and it is the gateway to Pangkor Island. It is a quaint little town famous for its beautiful seashell and coral handicrafts. This once little-known fishing town has since become the home base of the Royal Malaysian Navy Headquarters.

Lumut in Malay means moss, lichen, or seaweed. In its early days, the beach is said to be rich in moss, so the local people called it Lumut. Lumut jetty now is the staging-off point to various beautiful offshore islands, including Pangkor Island. www.percutianpangkor.com

    The worst service I have ever seen at a KFC. Sat 17 Aug 1150pm. One service counter open, waited 25 minutes to be served and when finally served I asked for two pieces spicy chicken I was told you need to wait 14 minutes. The most lazy KFC staff ever
