For this pair of Malayan Tigers figurines ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฏ, SiennyLovesDrawing would like to share her doodles inspiration cum interpretation as below,

The Malayan tiger is the national animal of Malaysia. Actually the Malayan Tiger is 1๏ธโƒฃ of the smallest tiger species found throughout the southern & central parts of the Malay Peninsula & southern parts of Thailand ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญ The Malayan tiger is a tiger from a specific population of the Panthera tigris subspecies that is native to Peninsular Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ This population inhabits the southern & central parts of the Malay Peninsula

The Malayan tiger is Totally Protected under the Wildlife Conservation Act 2010 & is classified as Critically Endangered under the IUCN Red List for Threatened Species since 2015

Meaning of the colours used to doodle on this pair of figurines:

Orange ๐Ÿงก~ From the Malayan Tiger ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฏ body colour

Black ๐Ÿ–ค ~ From the stripes of Malayan Tiger ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฏ

White ๐Ÿค ~ The original colour of the figurines, From the Malaysia flag ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ ~ It symbolises purity

Yellow ๐Ÿ’› ~ From the Malaysia flag ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ ~ It signifies royal colours of the Malay Rulers. Sienny would like to symbolise it as a bright future of Malaysia of her pair of Malayan Tigers figurines here

Red โ™ฅ๏ธ ~ From the Malaysia flag ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ ~ It symbolises bravery. The tiger symbolises bravery & strength among Malaysians

Blue ๐Ÿ’™ ~ From the Malaysia flag ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ ~ It symbolises the unity of all Malaysians

Meaning of doodle patterns:

The circular doodle means focus in aiming ๐ŸŽฏ just like the tiger ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฏ

Another doodle pattern meant to be the growth of plant ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฑ to signifies the jungle ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ

Meaning of this pair of Malayan Tiger figurines gestures:

Hand gestures ~ STOP ๐Ÿ›‘ poaching โ€ผ๏ธ
The Malayan tiger is already declining due to poaching, habitat loss & fragmentation or degradation, as well as prey loss & now Canine Distemper Virus (CDV) seems to be emerging as yet another threat

Purposely prepared no eyes ๐Ÿ‘€ on this pair of Malayan Tiger figurines, it’s because tiger cubs are born blind. Their eyes peek open between 6โ€“12 days after birth & they gain full vision after 2 weeks from birth

Do check out her TikTok clip captured via ๐Ÿ“น๐ŸŒ

Refired Not Retired Day To Live Life To The Fullest

Updated 6 March 2022, 12pm

SiennyLovesDrawing ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป has recently read about how to celebrating Refired, Not Retired Day, 1st March annually, it’s as simple as reevaluating any of your ideas (If yet to have, can start exploring now ๐Ÿ˜ƒ) of what it means to you to be retired. What have you got planned for the years after you retire or even retire earlyโ“โ‰๏ธ

Refired Not Retired Day is dedicated to all those people who have retired already OR about to get retired. During retirement period of life, live your life to the fullest, yes, just enjoy your life & make the most of these retirement years by doing things that you always wanted to do, as you finally got time to do all the things that you love to do. Read more via ๐ŸŒ https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/refired-not-retired-day/

Hmm…SiennyLovesDrawing actually wishes to retire early, yes โœ…, since she has graduated & starting to work ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ป, this is a life goal ๐ŸŽฏ that she is working on. It means good financial habits count, be discipline in your budget set, not wasting money unnecessarily etc. Some of her tips are reduce eating out, no unnecessarily phone upgrades, unnecessarily clothing & apparel shopping, not to opt for extended warranties & not to fall into emotional impulse shopping etc.

โ€œPlanning to retire? Before you do find your hidden passion, do the thing that you have always wanted to do.โ€ ~ By Catherine Pulsifer

Apart from the major concern ie. Enough financial to support early retirement, the rule of thumb widely recognised is only withdraw 4% from retirement savings each year

Personally to her, enough meant differently by each retirees, if you can be living on a lower budget that you’re comfortably adapting to, without any luxury elements, then your “enough” for early retirement surely more achievable, as compared to those that wish to enjoy a more luxury comfortable retirement life. So, a honest & reality self reflect is required to consider your retirement lifestyle, current or long term healthcare needs, living downsizing etc. ya ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

The important factor that drives her to achieving early retirement is what she is gonna do to fill her time after retire. Once retired, it means literally you have extra hours of 9 to 5 on your own, no need answering to many bosses, hurrayโ€ผ๏ธ She knows herself well that she needs to keep her time occupied, she just can’t be doing nothing for a long time, she just can’t, lol ๐Ÿ˜†

Frankly, initially when she wishes to retire early, so she can backpacking around the world ๐ŸŽ’๐ŸŒŽ, however with the global health pandemic now, she needs to pen down what she is gonna do instead before her long backpacking journey then

Let’s start to craft out an actual plan for your post-retirement years OR plan a fun bucket list that you can happily tick off after each exciting completion during your retirement

It’s just a new ๐Ÿ†• beginning after your retirement, enjoy new ๐Ÿ†• life for your own self. It’s a 2nd chance for all retirees to live life to its fullest to stay happy vital

In this sharing, SiennyLivesDrawing ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป is gonna sharing some pointers/ ideas of what to do to fill your time during retirement. It’s important to plan well to enjoy the max benefits of an early retirement ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

What’s your answers to these questionsโ“โ‰๏ธ

  • When you were a child, what did you love most? Isnโ€™t it now the time that each of us remembered the simple joy of being a child?

My ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผ humble beginnings of 30 plus years specialising in tourism at Taman Negara ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ & the handling of some 1๏ธโƒฃ million over tourists ๐Ÿ‘ซ๐Ÿ‘ญ๐Ÿ‘ฌ since day 1๏ธโƒฃ, has led me ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผ to the formation of 2๏ธโƒฃ travel agencies (NKS & Han Travel) & a resort ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿก with the biggest room capacity at Kuala Tahan. We average 30k tourists ๐Ÿ‘ฌ๐Ÿ‘ซ๐Ÿ‘ญ a year & 90% of them are from Europe ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ—บ

It has come to a time, where I ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผ feel personally, having been in this trade for 30 odd years, it is time to educate the younger generation ๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿป๐Ÿง’๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿป๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿป & anyone from all walks of life willing to learn about the conservation ๐Ÿ’š of the ecology & its surroundings

We at Han Travel, have formed 2๏ธโƒฃ new ๐Ÿ†• arms in our corporation to execute the upcoming programs called Eco Adventure Tourism ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

This will be encased with the educational arm named the Eco Educational Tourism, headed by Mr Frank Kee & his team ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ & in support ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป with the activities provided by the Adventure Management Tourism headed by Mr Kevin Bateman & his team ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

Just 1๏ธโƒฃ of our examples for the educational program is the re-planting of bamboo ๐ŸŽ‹๐ŸŽor specific trees ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ by badly eroded areas in the effort to prevent further damage to the riversides ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ง

This is just an example of what we would provide as a CSR initiative ๐Ÿ˜€

We shall be working closely with the Sultan Ahmad Environmental foundation ๐Ÿ’š in its efforts, participate & uphold its values ๐Ÿ˜Š

Alas, with our planning & preparation, we now realise that we face a huge stumbling block ๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ˜“ We do not a permanent site to conduct our activities in a conducive & safe manner ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Also, current rules & regulations by the government sectors should be looked at & revised to enable operators like us ๐Ÿ‘ญ๐Ÿ‘ซ๐Ÿ‘ฌ to introduce & execute the mutually beneficial conservational education programs ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

 

In the extended period, the efforts will benefit not just the environment ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ’š but also creating employment opportunity to the locals within its surroundings ๐Ÿ‘ญ๐Ÿ‘ฌ๐Ÿ‘ซ

I๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผnow urge, the Pahang state Government, Ministry of Tourism & other related government agencies to assist us in paving the way into this journey with us ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

Other Asian countries are already promoting their countrysโ€™ tagline, for example;-

  • Thailand ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญ ~ Culture tourism
  • Indonesia ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฉ ~ Art tourism
  • Philippines ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ ~ Diving tourism
  • Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ ~ Eco & Adventure tourism

All told, our Ministry of Tourism Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ have also set their vision ๐Ÿ’ญ on Eco Tourism ๐Ÿ’š with its plans & implementation of its program from 2025 & continued focusing till 2050

Han Travel Sdn Bhd, is now at the final phases of the planning & is almost ready to launch our initial program on Eco & Adventure Tourism ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š The launch pad & operations will be at the Han Rainforest Resort, Kuala Tahan ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿก

We hope our efforts will promote & drive the state of Pahang to be model state & also the centre of Ecological ๐Ÿ’š Awareness & the centre for the Education on Rainforest Preservation ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ

Once again, I ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผ believe that our vision is in line with the Pahang State governmentโ€™s. Developing a fully functioning centre where the education of the ecology ๐Ÿ’š can spread to all walks of life through an experiential process where participants ๐Ÿ‘ซ๐Ÿ‘ญ๐Ÿ‘ฌ can touch, feel, smell, see and hear the importance of the ecology ๐Ÿ’šaround us & the threats to its and our existence ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜

Fireflies Cruising ๐Ÿ›ถ @ Kampung Kuantan

Before the boat cruising,ย SiennyLovesDrawing ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปย has visited the treeย ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณย planting centre as habitat conservation efforts for the firefliesย ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Not to be missed the beautiful sunset moment at jetty before the fireflies cruisingย ๐Ÿ›ถ

IMG_1699.JPG

She ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปย has recalled that she ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป was amazed ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ˜ with the Chrismas trees ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ’ซ alike surrounding when her parents ๐Ÿ‘ด๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘ต๐Ÿป brought her ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป when she was a kid ๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿป for fireflies cruising ๐Ÿ›ถ

Hmm….Quite sad ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜ข to share that the Christmas trees ๐ŸŽ„๐Ÿ’ซ effects no longer as great ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป as before. The fireflies numbers are declining โฌ‡๏ธ mainly due to the pollution, degradation of the water ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’งquality, clearing of river ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ง reserves & mangroves ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿž closer to the fireflies viewing ๐Ÿ‘€ sites etc. She ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป is proud & happy ๐Ÿ˜ƒ that various of conservation ๐Ÿ’š efforts has been made to conserve and rehabilitate their habitat e.g. trees ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณย planting project with Berembang trees & Nipah trees

IMG_1792.JPG

She ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป highly recommends๐Ÿ‘†๐Ÿปto enjoy the boat ๐Ÿ›ถ cruising from Kampung Kuantan because the local community ๐Ÿ‘ซ๐Ÿ‘ญ๐Ÿ‘ฌ here still using the small wooden boats ๐Ÿ›ถ aka sampan in Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ’s national language.

She ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป was told the fireflies are more impressive ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ if it hasn’t rained ๐ŸŒงโ˜”๏ธ shortly before & if it is not a full moon ๐ŸŒ• night ๐ŸŒƒ

Basic firefly-watching ๐Ÿ‘€ etiquette includes,

  • Do not use your torch ๐Ÿ”ฆ / use flash ๐Ÿ“ธ to capture photos/ videos ๐Ÿ“น๐ŸŽฅ during the fireflies cruising ๐Ÿ›ถ as this will disturb & disrupt the fireflies’ mating
  • Not to talk loudly ๐Ÿ—ฃ & making unnecessary noise during the cruising ๐Ÿ›ถ
  • No smoking ๐Ÿšญ & littering โŒ is allowed during the cruising ๐Ÿ›ถ
  • Quietly enjoy the nature light ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ show by the fireflies. If you catch the fireflies & brought home ๐Ÿก, a fine of RM1๏ธโƒฃk will be imposed

She ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป has captured a short clip ๐Ÿ“น๐ŸŽฅ from her fireflies cruising๐Ÿ›ถ, low lighting & only mild nature light ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ show by the fireflies being captured ya ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜
