She ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป had a privilege to meet & enjoyed an inspiring chat ๐Ÿ—ฃ๐Ÿ‘ค with the founder of the resort๐Ÿก๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿก, Mr Kenny Ng ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผ(Uncle Kenny) about his nature ๐Ÿ’šย ๐Ÿ’šย passion & resort busines journey

Oppsss…SiennyLovesDrawing ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป has forgot ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ to have a photo ๐Ÿ“ธ with Uncle Kennyย ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผย during this trip

He ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ผ has generously shared an article โœ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ“œwrote by him & SiennyLovesDrawing ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿป would like to share ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ“ it here, inclusion of her favourite โค๏ธ emojisss & capturesss ๐Ÿ“ธ in between ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜

๐Ÿค—ย ~ Sharing is caring as always ~~ ๐Ÿค—

Taman Negara๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ, situated in the heart โค๏ธof Pahang, Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ , is 1๏ธโƒฃ of the oldest rainforest ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ in the world ๐Ÿ—บ๐ŸŒ at 130 million years old

Within it, lays a geographical ๐ŸŒ wonder of permanently untouched & protected habitat for flora ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒบ & fauna ๐Ÿฆ“๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ…๐Ÿ˜ to florish to all its glory

As such, this a perfect ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป platform for the development of a hub towards the education of conservation of the ecology surrounding Taman Negara & rainforests in general ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ

We strongly believe that Taman Negara ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ has the potential to be a global ๐Ÿ—บ๐ŸŒ platform for the both Eco & Adventure education tourism centre ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

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˜

Thank you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

It’s 1๏ธโƒฃ of the attractions๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ“not to be missed to searching for the precious bloom of the World ๐Ÿ—บ๐ŸŒ ‘s largest & arguably smelliest flower ๐ŸŒบ i.e. Rafflesia

It found all over Southeast Asia ๐ŸŒŽ i.e. from Southern Thailand ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญ to Philippines ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ Each species can be identified by the unique patterns on the petals. There are 8๏ธโƒฃ species of Rafflesias ๐ŸŒบ can be found in Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ with 3๏ธโƒฃ of them are endemic to the Malay Peninsula & of courseย can be found in the Belum-Temengor rainforest complex ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ’š

Hmm…If you are driving ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿš™ through North East Highway towards Kelantan, you will pass 2๏ธโƒฃ scenic bridges ๐ŸŒ‰ i.e. you are actually passing on an island ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ

Lake Temenggor ๐Ÿž is Malaysia๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พโ€™s 2๏ธโƒฃnd largest lake ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ง& home to more than 23 species of freshwater fish ๐ŸŸ & at least 5๏ธโƒฃ species of turtles ๐Ÿข๐Ÿข As the lake ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’งcovers 117.5k hectares & contains 6k million cubic metres of water ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ง , who knows what other creatures live there that have yet to be discovered ๐Ÿ˜‰

In 1970, due to the effort to fight communist & to build a hydro ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’งelectric dam has resulted in part of the Belum-Temenggor forest complex ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ’š submerged in the water ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’งof Sungai Perak. It took 4๏ธโƒฃ years to build the 2๏ธโƒฃ bridges ๐ŸŒ‰๐ŸŒ‰ to providing the convenience of East North East travelling ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿš™ via a scenic ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคฉ highway. The view of the 1๏ธโƒฃst bridge ๐ŸŒ‰ is spectacular from Belum Rainforest Resort๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿก๐Ÿก

  • To create awareness, strength & assurance in defending the natural ๐Ÿ’š heritage

PEKAโ€™s logo symbolises the shape of a leaf ๐ŸŒฑ that provides an ultimate inspiration of PEKA ๐ŸŒฑ Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ

PEKA ๐ŸŒฑ means “sensitive” in Bahasa Melayu i.e. National language of Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ & it is rightly suitable towards its objectives to achieve โœ…

PEKA ๐ŸŒฑ have been actively in community activities ensuring preservation of rainforests ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ in particularly replanting of lost rainforests ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ as itโ€™s really critical because we are losing most of the rainforests ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒณ fast๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜Œ
