We especially loved the kampung houses in Negeri Sembilan and Melaka. On Friday, I received a phone call that a friend had fallen sick – could I take The visit to the Turtle Conservation and Information Centre of Padang her place at the turtle sanctuary visit the next day? I said sure. I would Kemunting (Pusat Konservasi dan Penerangan Penyu Padang Kemunting), classify this as an unplanned trip, but it was fun and I got to learn new stuff. I started with an informative talk at 2.30pm by En. Hakim Chandramohan, officer am really blessed to be a part of it. at the centre. He spoke about the different types of marine turtles that came to So, my friend and I departed from Puchong on the sunny late morning the shores of Malaysia to lay their eggs. Then he shared about the function of of Saturday, 15 June 2019, en route to Melaka. Waze took us on the scenic the turtle centre in turtle conservation. route through small towns, past oil palm plantations, and villages with quaint After the talk ended, we were all brought to the turtle centre’s gallery in the next building, which was like a one-stop turtle information centre. Next, we went to the turtle pond, where En. Hakim explained how to clean the turtle shells safely and properly. The many children were hesitant at first, but after the water was drained from the pond, they enthusiastically went in to clean the turtle shells with sandpaper and even scrubbed the tiles at the bottom of the pond. Following a hearty dinner at Ismah Beach Resort just a few minutes’ walk down the road, we congregated outside the hatchery on the beach across the road from the turtle centre at sunset. It was time to release the turtle hatchlings. The children were particularly excited, and En. Hakim advised everybody to form a wide V-shape so that the hatchlings had ample space to make their way to the water. He emphasised that nobody should pick them En. Hakim giving a briefing on how to clean the turtle shells and pond up or touch them, because this is an important time for them to remember the beach, so that they can come back 20 years later to lay their eggs here. It is quite amazing that turtles can traverse oceans just to go back to the beach where they were born to lay their eggs in adulthood. The marine turtles that nest in Padang Kemunting are hawksbill turtles. Once upon a time, their beautiful shells were prized commodities because they were used to make jewellery and hair ornaments as well as other decorative items. Although the trade in Hawksbill turtles was outlawed in the late twentieth century, it is still a critically endangered species due to decades of overfishing and harvesting for its shell. The evening ended with a firefly cruise at Sungai Timun in Negeri Sembilan, not very far from Ismah Resort, where we were going to spend the night. The bright full moon lit up the nightscape, but also made the fireflies a little bit harder to see. However, we did see them, as synchronised blinking fairy lights on low Beremban mangrove trees. All in all, it was an educational and enlightening trip, especially suitable Volunteers scrubbing a hawksbill turtle's shell with sandpaper for the whole family. We enjoyed the company of fellow nature lovers and made new friends. Thanks to members of the MNS Negeri Sembilan/Melaka Branch for organising this interesting programme.

I would like to raise the awareness of Malaysians, especially nature lovers, hikers and jungle trekkers, to what the park has to offer. The best part, Taman Negara is just at our doorstep — there is no need to travel overseas to experience it. Taman Negara is 3½ hours’ drive from Kuala Lumpur. Good and reasonable accommodation is available. There is so much to do at Taman Negara depending on your preference. If you want to enjoy a nice boat ride along Sungai Tembeling under the canopy of huge trees, take a trip to Lata Berkoh. I’ve never had such a beautiful nature ride. Swim in the freshest of water flowing from the top of Gunung Tahan. If you are adventurous, then get drenched as you take a boat trip through the rapids along Sungai Tembeling. For hikers, one of the popular trails is Bukit Teresek (344m). Along the trail, enjoy the magnificent rainforest canopy, and flora and fauna. Enjoy the freshest water at Lata Berkoh 5 For those who can’t get enough of the nature, they may climb Gunung Tahan. At 2,187m, it is the highest peak in Peninsular Malaysia. One will be amazed by the variety of flora and fauna (water monitor lizard, river otter, Kelah fish, to name a few) and nocturnal insects when you take a guided tour in the jungle at night. Bird-watching enthusiasts will have a field day too. As a 70-year-old, I had the time of my life immersing myself in nature and enjoying its beauty. It was nature at its best. I urge Malaysians to visit Taman Negara at least once in their lifetime and, if possible, bring along the kids. We can play our part in helping to boost Sungai Tahan domestic tourism. 6 GREEN LIVING LEAVING ON A JET PLANE? BETTER THINK TWICE!

  • 2 Geology of Peninsular Malaysia
    2 GEOLOGY OF PENINSULAR MALAYSIA 2.1 INTRODUCTION Peninsular Malaysia has traditionLlly been subdivided into NNW-SSE longitudinal belts on the basis of stratigraphy, mineralisation, geological structure, geological history and tectonic evolution . Scrivenor (19:;8) subdivided the Peninsula into three elongate belts on the basis of mineralisation: a western tin belt, a central gold belt and an eastern tin belt. Hutchison (1977) divided the Peni isula into four major tectonic subdivisions on the basis of different tectonic histories; the '1Vestern Stable Shelf, the Main Range Belt, the Central graben, and the Eastern Belt. Fo ) (1983) divided the Peninsula into four zones on the basis of differences in stratign phy. Khoo and Tan (1983) proposed a threefold subdivision; a Western Belt, Central Belt and an Eastern Belt on the basis of differences in stratigraphy and geological histoi y within Peninsular Malaysia. Within this threefold subdivision, Khoo and Tan (1983' further divided the Western Belt into two regions: a northwest sector and a Kinta-Ma acca sector. Tjia and Harun (1985) recognised four structural domains within the Peninsula. They defined Northwest, West, Central and Eastern structural domains. Within all the above subdivision schemes, the boundary between the eastern and central "belts" is taken as the Lebir Fault 2 one, and the boundary between the central and western "belts" is the Bentong-Raub line of Hutchison (1975). As previously stated (Chapter 1.5.2), Metcalfe (1988) proposed that Peninsular Malaysia consisted of two continental terra les, a western Gondwanan affinity continental terrane (Sibumasu) and an eastern Cathaysian affinity continental terrane (Indochina/East Malaya) Chapter 2: Geology of Peninsular Malaysia (Fig.
