How time flies! BThroughout the past few months, aside from the usual advertisements, countless projects and events were organised to boost the number of domestic and foreign tourist arrivals to the silver state. With the sheer amount of blood, sweat and tears put into promoting Perak as a holiday destination, one may wonder whether all the effort and ‘hard work’ paid off. In this issue, Ipoh Echo examines the progress of VPY 2017. Continued on page 2 MAPS – a new boost to Perak tourism industry Taiping – A Town Of Many Firsts aiping got its name from the Chinese word “Tai-Peng” Tmeaning everlasting peace. Klian Pauh, its former name, was changed to Taiping soon after the Larut War in 1874. The town, once the capital of Perak, is also known as the “Heritage Town” due to its numerous old buildings. The Taiping Lake Gardens was originally a tin- mining field before it became a public garden in 1880. It was the brainchild of Colonel Robert F. Fawker and the man responsible for developing it was town planner, Charles Compton Reade. The 64-hectare abandoned mining field was donated by Chung Thye Phin for use as a recreational park.
