Hmm…The only unfavourable point is it does bleed through the paper, just that not too heavily obvious. The ink bleeds sometimes & shows through the back of the paper. She is not really a fan of the pen’s body, they’re too bulky to fit in a standard pencil case & also her small hands to hold & using it

The 2️⃣-line widths, 2️⃣mm & 5️⃣mm which are ideal for highlighting texts of various sizes as well as for drawing lines of different thicknesses. The 5️⃣mm tip for 2️⃣-dimensional highlighting while 2️⃣mm tip is for fine underlining. Its ink is water-based & therefore completely harmless to health 👍🏻

Fairy Cave has a light filled cavernous main chamber. The limestone stalactites takes so much time to build up ie. approximately 🔟cm every thousand years, wow 😲

The cave formations were so interesting & SiennyLovesDrawing couldn’t help but stop & stare at them every few steps 👩🏻🤩😍 Absolutely stunning natural formation here, impressive beautiful ❤️

This mystical cave sits approximately 30m above the ground & it’s believed to be the home for Chinese gods & goddess. The unique cavern & rock formations at Fairy Cave is unlike any other limestone caves,it simply amazes & impressed all with how beautiful our mother nature is 😍🤩

To get to the caves, visitors will have to climb up the 5️⃣ storey high stairs. As you make your way up, you will notice various sign boards educating visitors on the flora & fauna available at this nature reserve. At the very top of it, then reach the viewpoint of the surrounding area with a beautiful backdrop of the nearby terrains

There are 3️⃣ trails ie. Twilight Trail (30mins on average & covering a distance of 343m), Dark Trail (It proceed onwards for another 15 to 20mins along the 250m unlit pathway) & Gunung Kapor Summit Trail (Most challenging & it requires a guide & permit approval in advance)

SiennyLovesDrawing has completed 👩🏻🚶🏻‍♀️💯✅ both the Twilight Trail & Dark Trail for a short day trip here with other PATA delegates

Fairy Cave is well equipped for rock climbing. There are 8️⃣ walls with various difficulty for visitors to try out & all being certified by the International Mountaineering & Climbing Federation (IMCF)

There were some common legends & stories on how Fairy Cave got its name

Tips on What to Bring/Wear

  • It’s closed during heavy rain, thunderstorms, lightning occurrences & strong winds. So, do weather check 1️⃣st before visiting it
  • If you plan to drive to Fairy Cave, do ensure that car tyre & brakes are working well
  • No vandalism, littering, smoking & destructive behaviour will be tolerated
  • Wear reliable close-toed footwear when visiting the caves, as some parts of the trail are slippery when wet. You won’t be allowed to enter the cave if you’re using sandals. Note: Can rent “Adidas Kampung”, a locally made footwear often used for outdoor activities at the booth just beside the entrance
  • Mind your head as certain parts the cave have a lower ceiling & watch out for falling rock 🪨
  • Take along your gloves 🧤 if you have them as the handrails here are often coated with bat guano
  • Carry along some drinking water as the caves can get pretty hot & humid
  • To bring a headlamp/ torch light 🔦  Note: Can rent from the counter for a small fee

From SiennyLovesDrawing’s 1️⃣st participation, it was really exciting fun to visit & explore the wide pineapple flowers & pineapples plantation of 🔟K hectares. Absolutely worth a superb early wake up to gather & ride with 4️⃣ wheel drive, old school bus 🚌 or lorry 🚛 etc. to reach here & then slowly walking 🚶🏻‍♀️ down this mesmerizing pineapples maze 🤩🍍

Highly recommended 💯👍🏻 this eye-opening experience of visiting the pineapples plantation to learn more from growing until harvesting the pineapples 🍍🍍 She is gonna bring along her little niece 👩🏻👧🏻 to participate next year as she believes this FBN is rich with educational values for the younger generations

Tips📌 : From her recent visiting experience, it’s not advisable to wear short pants 🩳  to avoid getting hurt by the sharp teeth pineapple 🍍 leaves & must bring mosquitoes repellent ❌🦟 to avoid getting mosquitoes attack while waiting for sunrise 🌄 in the dark ya 

The harvest appreciation ceremony 🙏🏻🍍 was held at 6 o’clock in the morning of 28 Jan 2024, yes ✅, when the sun 🌞 rises up 

Guess what❓⁉️

SiennyLovesDrawing & her media friends 👫🏽👭🏻👬👫 actually woke up at 4am that morning to depart from hotel & then gather at Mumu Farm 新邦黄梨园 to ride with other participants in either the 4️⃣ wheel drive, old school bus 🚌 or lorry 🚛 etc. to reach the plantation

 Although she slept 🛌 only an hour because busy chit chatting with her roommate 😂😆, she was like a blur panda 🐼 that morning, hahaha 🤪🤣

She had a great 👍🏻 time, absolutely worth it especially the moment from dark to bright with sun rising 🌞🌄

Before the worship ceremony began, Duo Space Dance Theatre 共享空间专业舞团, a team of professional modern dance troupe from Kuala Lumpur has performed 2️⃣amazing opening dance 💃🏻🕺🏻 performances namely Wind “《风》” &  City vs Rural “《城市•乡土》”. When the sun rose 🌄, the Kluang Chung Hwa Secondary School took over the stage & led the 24 Festive Drums 🥁 performance 二十四节令鼓 The festival ceremony continued with 2️⃣ students from Kluang Chung Hwa Secondary School 居銮中华中学 recited a poem & followed by an opening & welcome speech by YB Chew Chong Sin 周忠信 👨🏻‍💼 to kick off this annual FBN ceremony

IMG_20240130_180613

YB Chew Chong Sin 周忠信 👨🏻‍💼 shared that through the processing & packaging with modern technology, pineapple 🍍 flowers can improve ⬆️ productivity & production value in order to increase ⬆️ economic income. He hopes that through the pineapple flower festival, it will attract farmers 👩🏻‍🌾👨🏻‍🌾, also introduce government policy & supports to bring greater 👍🏻 & comprehensive agricultural benefits to developing this agriculture industry. He expressed his belief that through 5️⃣ years of efforts & hard works, this FBN has gained as a high-profile local annual festival that combines agriculture, food processing & agricultural tourism in Malaysia 🇲🇾

FBN also injects elements of special agricultural tourism, relying on the resources of Malaysia’s 🇲🇾 agricultural land to enhance economic value, connect ↔️ industry players & create economic opportunities for local communities. He also elaborated that the pineapple 🍍 industry can leverage its transformation to develop agricultural food processing & agricultural tourism to ensure food security & stable production 💯

There were more than 120 participants 🧑🏻‍🤝‍🧑🏻👭🏻👬🏼👫🏻 (An increased no. from previous years) holding high the pineapple flowers in their hands 🍍✋🏻 during sunrise 🌄  & worshipped together towards the 4️⃣ directions of South, East, North & West to praying for a peaceful & prosperity for this 🆕 year 2024 ㊗️🈴🈵🧧🏮

All shouted loudly “Heng 兴, Ong 旺 , Huat 发 ah”

Pineapple 🍍 (Ananas comosus) is a tropical plant with an edible fruit, it’s the most economically significant plant in the family Bromeliaceae. This exotic fruit 🍍actually comes from a flowering plant, it grows from the leafy tops of it ie. The ornamental pineapple aka pineapple flower 黄梨花 (Ananas comosus Champaca)

SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 was told by some of the farmers 👨🏻‍🌾👩🏻‍🌾 at the festival that by simply cutting the crown off the top of each pineapple 🍍 & placing it in soil to grow more pineapples. Seriously & it doesn’t require for much care, wow 🤩 That’s really easy as once planted the crown of the pineapple 🍍, it forms roots & begins to grow 🆕 & leafy green foliage. The 🆕 plant will then start to flower small florets which will form in the middle of the foliage & rise. At 1️⃣st, the florets have red ♥️ & pink 💗 tones before finally turning yellow 💛 once ripe. Ohh ya…Once plucked, pineapples will immediately stop its ripe progress ya ☺️

SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 has learnt that it takes approximately 18 to 24 months to grow & harvest pineapple flowers during this media trip to Simpang Renggam, Kluang, Johor ie. The largest pineapple 🍍 growing area in Malaysia 🇲🇾  This also the pioneer startup place since 1931 of the late Mr. Lee Kong Chian & his family ie. Lee Pineapple

This pineapple plantation area is developing into its leisure tourism with pineapple theme, so local & foreign tourists here can enjoy watching the sunrise 🌅, sunset 🌄, starry night 🌃🌌🌠  or a full moon 🌕 🌝

Wang Burma Cave

Hmm…SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 learnt about this cave during her Perlis State Park night walk in earlier trip & then she has now explored this cave in both of its dry & wet route for the 1️⃣st time

This cave is located in the Perlis State Park & known as a Geosite near the Malaysia-Thailand border, ie. Approximately 2️⃣km from Wang Kelian town. Wang Burma Cave consists of Setul Formation limestone & most of the rocks have been metamorphosed due to the location of this cave being too close to the granite body in Bukit China

Wang Burma Cave is divided into 2️⃣, namely Gua Wang Burma 1️⃣ & Gua Wang Burma 2️⃣. It’s 1️⃣ of the most famous caves in Perlis for its uniqueness of stalactites & stalagmites that were formed millions of years ago

From her cave exploring experience, the route to explore Cave Wang Burma 2️⃣ is more challenging & it has a high level of difficulty because she has to wade through the small river of the cave, infiltrate the small cave holes so she has to crawl, squat down & walk like a duck 🦆 There are thousands of bats 🦇🦇 hanging from the roof of the cave

Tips 📌 from her own experience,

✅ Must wear safety helmet ⛑️ 🪖, she countless how many times she hit her head while squat down to go through the small cave hole & low area of river walking
✅ Wear bright clothing so that your travel mates & nature guide see you inside the dark cave
✅ Bring water proof bag to keep your phone
✅ Wear aqua shoe👟 & headlamp/ torch🔦
✅ Bring water bottle
❌ Big bag as at low area & small cave holes really limited space
❌ Touch any stone cave formations as some still alive & growing, she was told once touch, some will die

SiennyLovesDrawing highly recommended 👩🏻💯👍🏻 this place as it’s suitable for cave recreational, eco nature learning & education activities

It was an excited yet challenging cave explore experience gained 😁 by SiennyLovesDrawing here, highly recommended 💯👍🏻

Ohh ya…She was lucky to view the Stump-Tailed Macaque aka Beruk Kentoi (It’s from monkey 🐒 🐵 family) by the local Perlis community here from her van window during the journey on the way for this cave exploration. It’s not easy to actually see this species, just too quickly, so unable to capture photo/ video for sharing. All kept in her precious memories ya ☺️

It also used as sound therapy to induce healing & to treat various illnesses. In both ancient world & now the modern scientific world, the universe starts with vibration.

So, she asked Mr Rico the reason, he told that perhaps 1️⃣st time & trust yet to be built. She really jealous that some of her travel mates actually gained deep sleep & heard their snoring 😪😴 Hmm…A good reason for more sessions then
