season 16 in Penang was the toughest one

Wow! How exciting it must be for a TARA fan to watch his hometown as a TARA destination!

Maybe you would like to inform us how far away was the pit start to Batu Caves? And to which place is the ferry going to (the one which Natasha and Hussein wrongly took)? How long is the travel from the pier to the next?

Thank you.

Batu Caves is near KL Mai, and Penang is like 4-5 hours drive from KL, hehehe...

So, they started in KL? And went to Batu Caves?

Because I'm just worried for the guy that Jess and Lani asked to help them get to Batu Caves. If it was very far from where they started (like more than 3 hours away), then the guy is pitiful because they left him at the cave. So, the cruise ship was in Penang?

You should have applied as Malaysian Leg Crew!
You got a great picture!
Have you been in Batu Cave?

Wow, thank you Fauzi! You solved the "mystery" of Natasha and Hussein's ferry ride!

That's why they were on the ferry....and they got to the cruise ship fast! Because the ferry was going towards Pier Swetteham, where the cruise ship is!

Ahhh...editors! Sneaky people!

No, one thing still doesn't fit. Several tasks had to be done IN the island (futsal, the Penang Peranakan Mansion). So, teams had to go to the island FIRST before they knew they were heading to the ship!! So, there was no way HN knew they were heading to that ship later on in the race if they took a ferry ride to go from the mainland to the island

MAYBE, just maybe, HN really took that ferry ride to the island, and coincidentally it went to the Pier Swetteham, and the editors put it in the episode to make us thing that they took the wrong ferry. Maybe, hmmm

Teams should have follow the Malaysia's team..
It pretty tough driving from KL to Penang, it took several hours to get there n easy to get lost..
I am proud of them..

As I said in other thread, yes, they wanted to entertain us, but somehow the effect was not only entertainment, but confusion as well

true! i agree

The roads and highways in Malaysia are good and have good signages as compared to one in the Phippines.

The trip from Kuala Lumpur to Batu Caves and to Penang are easy to navigate.

Does Malaysia has the North-South highway? It heads to Penang. No problemo!
