Yeah‼️ SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 has recently travelled to Taman Negara 🌳🌳 (aka National Park 🌳🌳 ) Pahang, Malaysia 🇲🇾 with MITA business networking trip & enjoyed her back to nature 💚 stay 🛌🚿🚽😴💤 at Han Rainforest Resort 🏡🏘🏡
She 👩🏻 had a privilege to meet & enjoyed an inspiring chat 🗣👤 with the founder of the resort🏡🏘🏡, Mr Kenny Ng 👨🏻💼(Uncle Kenny) about his nature 💚 💚 passion & resort busines journey
Oppsss…SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 has forgot 🤦🏻♀️ to have a photo 📸 with Uncle Kenny 👨🏻💼 during this trip
He 👨🏻💼 has generously shared an article ✍🏻📜wrote by him & SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 would like to share 👩🏻💻📝 it here, inclusion of her favourite ❤️ emojisss & capturesss 📸 in between 😃😁
🤗 ~ Sharing is caring as always ~~ 🤗
Taman Negara🌳🌳, situated in the heart ❤️of Pahang, Malaysia 🇲🇾 , is 1️⃣ of the oldest rainforest 🌳🌳 in the world 🗺🌍 at 130 million years old
Within it, lays a geographical 🌍 wonder of permanently untouched & protected habitat for flora 🌳🌱🌿🌺 & fauna 🦓🐆🐅🐘 to florish to all its glory
As such, this a perfect 👍🏻 platform for the development of a hub towards the education of conservation of the ecology surrounding Taman Negara & rainforests in general 🌳🌳
We strongly believe that Taman Negara 🌳🌳 has the potential to be a global 🗺🌍 platform for the both Eco & Adventure education tourism centre 😃
My 👨🏻💼 humble beginnings of 30 plus years specialising in tourism at Taman Negara 🌳🌳 & the handling of some 1️⃣ million over tourists 👫👭👬 since day 1️⃣, has led me 👨🏻💼 to the formation of 2️⃣ travel agencies (NKS & Han Travel) & a resort 🏡🏘🏡 with the biggest room capacity at Kuala Tahan. We average 30k tourists 👬👫👭 a year & 90% of them are from Europe 🇬🇧 🇮🇹 🇩🇪 🌍🗺
It has come to a time, where I 👨🏻💼 feel personally, having been in this trade for 30 odd years, it is time to educate the younger generation 👧🏻🧒🏻👦🏻🧑🏻 & anyone from all walks of life willing to learn about the conservation 💚 of the ecology & its surroundings
We at Han Travel, have formed 2️⃣ new 🆕 arms in our corporation to execute the upcoming programs called Eco Adventure Tourism 💚💚
This will be encased with the educational arm named the Eco Educational Tourism, headed by Mr Frank Kee & his team 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♀️💁🏻♂️💁🏻♀️ & in support 💪🏻 with the activities provided by the Adventure Management Tourism headed by Mr Kevin Bateman & his team 🙋🏽♂️🙋🏻♀️💁🏻♂️💁🏻♀️
Just 1️⃣ of our examples for the educational program is the re-planting of bamboo 🎋🎍or specific trees 🌳🌳 by badly eroded areas in the effort to prevent further damage to the riversides 💦💧
This is just an example of what we would provide as a CSR initiative 😀
We shall be working closely with the Sultan Ahmad Environmental foundation 💚 in its efforts, participate & uphold its values 😊
Alas, with our planning & preparation, we now realise that we face a huge stumbling block 😥😓 We do not a permanent site to conduct our activities in a conducive & safe manner 😌
Also, current rules & regulations by the government sectors should be looked at & revised to enable operators like us 👭👫👬 to introduce & execute the mutually beneficial conservational education programs 💚💚
In the extended period, the efforts will benefit not just the environment 💚🌳💚 but also creating employment opportunity to the locals within its surroundings 👭👬👫
I👨🏻💼now urge, the Pahang state Government, Ministry of Tourism & other related government agencies to assist us in paving the way into this journey with us 🙏🏻🤝👏🏻🙌🏻
Other Asian countries are already promoting their countrys’ tagline, for example;-
Thailand 🇹🇭 ~ Culture tourism
Indonesia 🇮🇩 ~ Art tourism
Philippines 🇵🇭 ~ Diving tourism
Malaysia 🇲🇾 ~ Eco & Adventure tourism
All told, our Ministry of Tourism Malaysia 🇲🇾 have also set their vision 💭 on Eco Tourism 💚 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 💚💚 The launch pad & operations will be at the Han Rainforest Resort, Kuala Tahan 🏡🏘🏡
We hope our efforts will promote & drive the state of Pahang to be model state & also the centre of Ecological 💚 Awareness & the centre for the Education on Rainforest Preservation 🌳🌳
Once again, I 👨🏻💼 believe that our vision is in line with the Pahang State government’s. Developing a fully functioning centre where the education of the ecology 💚 can spread to all walks of life through an experiential process where participants 👫👭👬 can touch, feel, smell, see and hear the importance of the ecology 💚around us & the threats to its and our existence 😃😁
Thank you 🙏🏻

Not to be missed the beautiful sunset moment at jetty before the fireflies cruising 🛶
She 👩🏻 has recalled that she 👩🏻 was amazed 🤩😍 with the Chrismas trees 🎄💫 alike surrounding when her parents 👴🏻👵🏻 brought her 👩🏻 when she was a kid 👧🏻 for fireflies cruising 🛶
Hmm….Quite sad 😔😢 to share that the Christmas trees 🎄💫 effects no longer as great 👍🏻 as before. The fireflies numbers are declining ⬇️ mainly due to the pollution, degradation of the water 💦💧quality, clearing of river 💦💧 reserves & mangroves 💚🌳🌱🏞 closer to the fireflies viewing 👀 sites etc. She 👩🏻 is proud & happy 😃 that various of conservation 💚 efforts has been made to conserve and rehabilitate their habitat e.g. trees 🌳🌳 planting project with Berembang trees & Nipah trees
She 👩🏻 highly recommends👆🏻to enjoy the boat 🛶 cruising from Kampung Kuantan because the local community 👫👭👬 here still using the small wooden boats 🛶 aka sampan in Malaysia 🇲🇾’s national language. The boats 🛶🛶 are steered manually by a boatman 👨🏽👨🏽 during the cruising 🛶 There is another venue for fireflies cruising 🛶 named Bukit Belimbing where electronic boats 🚤 are being used
She 👩🏻 was told the fireflies are more impressive 🤩🤩 if it hasn’t rained 🌧☔️ shortly before & if it is not a full moon 🌕 night 🌃
Basic firefly-watching 👀 etiquette includes,
Do not use your torch 🔦 / use flash 📸 to capture photos/ videos 📹🎥 during the fireflies cruising 🛶 as this will disturb & disrupt the fireflies’ mating
Not to talk loudly 🗣 & making unnecessary noise during the cruising 🛶
No smoking 🚭 & littering ❌ is allowed during the cruising 🛶
Quietly enjoy the nature light 💫💫 show by the fireflies. If you catch the fireflies & brought home 🏡, a fine of RM1️⃣k will be imposed

It’s a meaningful 2️⃣D1️⃣N trip to appreciate the on going ecotourism & nature conservation 💚 efforts towards in Kuala Selangor
“If ecotourism can be allowed to succeed, conservation will follow” ~ Andrew Sebastian
In the 1940s, MNS was established with aims to promote the study 📖📑📊📈, appreciation👍🏻, conservation & protection 💚 of Malaysia 🇲🇾’s natural heritage 😃
Also welcome 🤗 to check out SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 ’s top contributor 👆🏻 account via 🌐 https://www.tripadvisor.com.my/members/siennylovesdrawing for her recent reviews on the Malaysia 🇲🇾 ’s tourist attractions, food & accommodation stay ya 👩🏻💻📝
Yeah‼️SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 is gonna sharing 👩🏻💻📝 about her recent volunteer participation with Malaysian Nature Society (MNS), a non-governmental non-profit organization (NGO) to learn about ecotourism 💚 @ Belum Temenggor🌳🌳, in particular hornbill conservation & habitat for its local communities ~ indigenous people aka orang asli 👶🏽👧🏽🧒🏽👦🏽🧑🏽🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♂️👵🏽🧓🏽👴🏽in Malaysia 🇲🇾’s national language
Since 2004, MNS aims to promoting hornbills conservation in Belum Temenggor Forest Complex 🌳🌳 (BTFC)(1️⃣of the oldest virgin rainforest on Earth, 130 million years old) & to enhancing public awareness of the importance of hornbills to the rainforests’🌳🌳 ecosystem 👍🏻🙌🏻
Malaysia 🇲🇾 is home 🏡 to 🔟 Malaysian hornbills & dubbed the ‘Hornbill Capital of the World🌍’ with its Perak state being recognized as the Land of Hornbills
BTFC 🌳🌳 aka Northern Peninsular Malaysia🇲🇾’s Natural Jewels 💎, the only remaining contiguous block to tropical rainforests 🌳🌳 which linking to Southern Thailand 🇹🇭 i.e. Bang Lang National Park & Hala Bala Wildlife Sanctuary, also part of the Titiwangsa Range 💚
Currently, only BTFC 🌳🌳 & the Greater Ulu Muda Forest Complex 🌳🌳 are on par for the hornbill diversity in Malaysia 🇲🇾, then together with the Southern Thailand 🇹🇭, all made up for the Hornbill Triangle (HoT)🔺
Hornbills get its name from its horn-like projection i.e. a casque on their beaks (Hmm…Not all hornbill species have them though) 😊
Hornbills are well known as the farmers 👨🏻🌾👩🏻🌾 of the rainforests 🌳🌳
Ohh…Why❓⁉️
Hornbills fly long distances looking for fruits🍎🍏 & swallow fruits🍎🍏in whole. Hmm…Some fruits 🍎🍏 are with big seeds. As they spit out countless seeds, some seeds find a place to grow & become new 🆕 trees 🌳🌳
However, really dissappointed & sad 😧😔 that some of the hornbill species are experiencing critically endangered & vulnerable. In this connection, if lesser ⬇️ hornbills, many rainforest trees 🌳🌳 that depend on them to spread their seeds may disappear from the rainforest 🌳🌳eventually
Why❓⁉️ Why❓⁉️Why❓⁉️
Some of the main reasons are destruction/ loss of the hornbills’ habitats & degradation due to deforestation (Photo 📸 below captured from BRAINS Summit 2018), fragmentation of rainforests 🌳🌳, illegal logging (Photo 📸 below captured by SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 during her volunteer trip), poaching & hunting, conversion to agriculture e.g. oil palm plantations, over-development etc. 😧😔
As the rainforests 🌳🌳disappear, so does indigenous peoples’👶🏽👧🏽🧒🏽👦🏽🧑🏽🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♂️👵🏽🧓🏽👴🏽culture too 😧😔 as their living style very much depended on the rainforests 🌳🌳 for medicine, shelter, food, other necessities etc. They are not known to take more than what they need as this would be seen as a transgression of the rainforest 🌳🌳 & would bring curses to their people. So, the destruction of their prime resource is resulting in the destruction of their traditional ways of life 😧😔
You may not aware that BTFC 🌳🌳consists of 2️⃣ big parts,
Temengor Forest Reserve ~ the southern part of BTFC is largely a production forest 🌳🌳
Royal Belum State Park ~ the northern part, a protected area🌳🌳
MNS has been working hard for years to get the whole BTFC a protected area 🌳🌳 with its ecotourism 💚 efforts 👍🏻🙌🏻💪🏻 Hope they will achieve success very soon
“MY forest 🌳 , MY wildlife, MY responsibility”
Curious 🤔 about what SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 has participated & learnt during her 4️⃣D3️⃣N volunteering with MNS❓⁉️
MNS Hornbill Festival🎉🎊
The 1️⃣st festival 🎉🎊 & annually every 16 Septto bring awareness & encourage orang asli👶🏽👧🏽🧒🏽👦🏽🧑🏽🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♂️👵🏽🧓🏽👴🏽communities to participate for hornbill conservation under the Malaysian 🇲🇾 implementation of the project, My Forest ~ “Strengthening Non-State Actor Involvement in Forest Governance in Indonesia 🇮🇩 , Malaysia 🇲🇾 , the Philippines 🇵🇭 & Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬 ” which funded by the European Union 🇪🇺
She has captured an interview clip 📹🎥 with Mr Balu, the Head of Conservation with MNS ~ “Hornbill Conservation Effort by MNS“
MY forest is a high⬆️-impact partnership, as it looks at Malaysia🇲🇾’s natural 💚 heritage ~ rainforests 🌳🌳 & how non-state actors ~ non-governmental organisations, civil societies, local communities, the private sector & the public – can inform & change policies towards better rainforest governance. Under this 5️⃣-year project (2017-2021), MNS is tasked with building the capacity of non-state actors from all around Malaysia 🇲🇾 to engage more effectively with the government in protecting Malaysia🇲🇾’s rainforests 🌳🌳
She had great interactions with the orang asli kids 👶🏽👧🏽🧒🏽👦🏽🧑🏽 & adults🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♂️👵🏽🧓🏽👴🏽about nature awareness, art🎨🖍activities, sumpit, balloons🎈🎈, survey questionnaires❓❓etc. by using simple Malaysia 🇲🇾 ‘s national language ~ Bahasa Melayu 👌🏻✌🏻👍🏻
