1) The flight was unfortunately arranged 3 hours later, which arrived in kl at 12 midnight. For the sake of safety, i went back to ipoh with my family and then return to kl in evening on the same day. I had been travelling from 8pm till 12am from Guilin to KLIA, 2.30am - 5.30am from KLIA to ipoh, and 4pm to 7.30pm from ipoh to KL. Well, I expected this as I was informed about the delay 2 weeks before the vacation.
2) For unknown weight concerns, more than 100 baggages were not able to be delivered on the same flight. We were not officially informed about this before we departed, but we could easily guess it as we still saw there were two tracks of luggage leaving outside of the plane when it flied off. It was already midnight when we arrived Malaysia and yet we were required to lodge a report at the Baggage Claim department. Fortunately we were able to complete all the necessary procedures before our bus going back to ipoh at 2.30am.

3) I had been telling my mum during MATTA Fair that I do not really concern how attractive the travel agencies and their respective packages offered were. Longsheng/龙胜must be one of the item in the itinerary. I was amazed by the huge padi field at 龙脊梯田 from Internet. 
However, we were brought to a village stayed by native minority races, Zhuang/壮族. There were staircase-like padi fields but it was not as spectucular as what we dreamt. This is my biggest regret from my vacation. The tour guide claimed that it would require physical strength to climb up to the peak and the entire course can only be completed in few hours. Hence it is not a good place for the elder in our tour. Surprisingly, I met a friend who joined a different travel agency and he told me that they were brought to 龙脊梯田despite the fact that half of his tour mates were elder.

alas, most part of china is like that. What they present is very different from reality.
I understand that what we see in reality may be different than what we heard/see from internet. But we were brought to somewhere else which was different than what was shown in the itinerary
