If you have an internet-enabled camera phone, do
take it along. Camp life can be very boring
without one. You will like to take pictures and
share with your friends. You only need to be very
vigilant and protective of your things. If you feel
you need a bulletproof vest or helmet, please
carry it. You know what we mean, don't you?
55. MONEY, MONEY, AND MORE MONEY.
* Never, ever, ever run out of it. Bring as much as
you can afford.
* Mirrors and forks are known to be contraband
items in camp
* Prices of items apart from fast consumer goods
(Credit, Gala, Indomie etc) are usually higher than
those outside so it is advisable you buy the
things you can before going into camp.
PACK AS LIGHT AS YOU CAN AND MAKE SURE
YOUR BOX IS AS THEFT-PROOF AS POSSIBLE.
