Tawau Golf Club Hot Spring - Most Beautiful Golf Course

Tawau Golf Club owns two golf courses one the original 9 hole in the town and another 18 holes at Hot Spring. Today we were introduced to play at the Hot Spring. We as members of Kelab Rahman Putra Malaysia get to play free except for the buggy and caddy fee.

AS Lee has to take a penalty drop, his ball went into the hazard. This golf course definitely demand a careful course management and not to be heroic in your approaches.
Little Johan (the one in red) is only 10 years old working part time as a caddy. And he knows his work well. He reads the putting green well and after the morning work he will be going to school. Such a amazing kid.
This is a very beautiful golf course, very scenic and ever challenging.

After a round of golf a cool cold beer is heaven.

Kedai Kopi Hong Hong, Tawau Sabah for a Good Breakfast

Tawau is a quiet town but rich and prospering. Jimmy Quek Jee Ming (a brother of our brother, they are the secret society of Freemason) took us here at Kedai Kopi Hong Hong, somewhere in Taman Megah Jaya for a sumptuous breakfast before our second round of golf. In this coffee shop there is this front table where regular patrons would meet and break their fast here and most of them are planters.

A huge plate of Wan Ton Mee with Char Siu & Roast Porks.
Cantonese Fried Koay Teow is very delicious in Tawau, always comes with plenty of seafood in it and the Koay Teow noodle was also equally gorgeous. A magnificent bowl of seafood soup was ideal for us as most of us had a fair amount of drinks the night before. And again the seafood was fresh. That’s Tawau.
And lastly a fried grouper fish head which everyone enjoyed it very much. This is the cook & boss of Kedai Kopi Hong Hong.


Everyone was waiting patiently for their food while the Master cook is preparing at the kitchen.

Here we come, Shan Shui Golf & Country Resort, Tawau, Sabah

These were the eight golfers from Penisula Malaysia challenging the designer of one of the best golf courses in Tawau, Shan Shui Golf & Country Resort.

Voted before for the best 500 Holes & Top 250 Par 4's in the World.

Beware of crocodile but did not see any when we were there.

Shan-Shui (Shan is mountain & Shui is water in Chinese) was once voted the Best Par 5 in Asia.

The caddies in Tawau are all mostly young boys and they are good caddies.
