Went for a seminar in Westin Langkawi. With IMD lecturers.
Took a MAS flight to Langkawi. The journey started in KL Sentral.
Waiting for the word to board the plane.
Flight was only 50 minutes and Westin got a car to pick me up from the airport. Approximately 25 minutes later, I got my room.
Quite luxurious.
A waste though as I will be locked up in a seminar room most of the time.
All this for just one person.
I was made to understand that this was originally Sheraton.
Some modern and old fittings.
The view outside my room (there is also a porch) is beautiful.
There resort has a vast compound and the vegetation is well kept.
At the end of the first day, a sunset cruise was organised. We went on a large yacht out of the Langkawi Yacht Club boating facility.
Sat in front of the boat. Selfie!
The boat is about to pull away from the pier.
The weather was nice and got o enjoy the sunset. We also had dinner on the boat although most of us didn't eat much (don't want to get sick as the boat was rolling while anchored in the middle of the sea).
Next morning after breakfast and before the start of the seminar got a chance to take a picture of one of the pools in the resort.
The seminar is full swing.
The second pool in the resort.
The beach here is not that nice.
The day before heading home. Final shot of the resort.
Going into the departure hall.
The end.

The 2015 Company trip to Tanjung Rhu, Langkawi, Kedah - Beach, sea, sand and food galore
This year, we decided to go, as a company, to Tanjung Rhu Resort in Langkawi, Kedah. This destination has been our first official company trip back in 2011. Luckily there happened to be a long 3-day weekend during the Merdeka period for the whole company to make the trip without the need to break the event into two sessions. For risk management purposes, the company was split into two flights, an hour difference.
We flew by MAS and for some of us, we decided to start the journey at KL Sentral via the ERL. This also gives us the opportunity to check in our luggage and get our boarding pass at the station itself. On the outward bound part, I had one bag in the cargo (with another bag in that bag) hold. This is anticipate the stuff I could buy in Langkawi.
It is 7:23 am in the morning and the train should be by the platform in 5 minutes time.
After an uneventful flight, the resort arranged a van to pick up the first batch.
Since this holiday is going to be a food heaven, I weigh myself prior to going 'food-crazy'.
My room and bed.
The resort is very quiet and extreme low density. Hence why we like it. Here is a picture I tool of the family pool from the pool cafe area.
Lovely weather. Can't wait to hit the beach after lunch.
On the beach with a pair of sunglasses.
Miles of empty beach.
Sunset....just beautiful.
Low tide and you can walk on a sand bank.
Company dinner.
After 3 days and 2 nights, it was time to go home. On the second day, I went to Kuah town for chocolate shopping. The stuff I bought required two bags to be put inside the cargo bay for the trip back.
Enjoyed the experience of the resort.
