Assalamualaikum wb.t...Selamat Sejahtera

Someone may have stolen your dream when it was young and fresh and you were innocent. Anger is natural. Grief is appropriate. Healing is mandatory. Restoration is possible.

One of the begonia spp that i took during forest practices in Gombak Forest Reserve...wish i knew the name...

See even the girls are dont mind to sleep anywhere ...even on the undulating soil..that show how tired they are




The highlight of this short-course activities is `rafting' using bamboo as raw material. The whole work to make the `complete-rakit' is almost 1 day..n such activity will release all the tensions and tiredness that had been `suffered' all day long..

Principal of Kepong Forestry School, Sulaiman Salleh (deceased) showing the Cycas spp that we will transplanting at that time.....He is one of the best senior-officer in forstry dept. that i had experinced to work with....Al-fatihah to my late-Pengetua Sulaiman b Salleh..Amin (The man standing beside Principal is normally i called as cikgu nuar...please dont get confused him with the only Rhoma Irama)

Handling students of Kepong Forestry School during short-course in Lata Lembik. In here i give talk on `transplanting' proccess esp. on ex-situ prgramme. Livistona endauensis a species from family of Palmae had been transplanted onto Forestry Training Unit, Kepong because the species had been recognised as `nearly threatened' by IUCN RedList of Threatened Species. The species only can be found in Malaysia but confined to Endau-Rompin and coastal hills of southern Terengganu. The species was brought down from Bt. Bauk, Dungun during 2005 1-week outing with Renger's Trainee....i still remember the moment because it was done during fasting month liao..n some of the student `break-fasting' oledy haa...bantai fried-chicken on the back of the lorry liao...
