How about strawberries this Valentine’s Day?

CAMERON HIGHLANDS: Forget chocolates and roses, juicy strawberries grown here will definitely put a smile on the face of your girlfriend or wife this Valentine’s Day.

Juicy fruit: Yeep tasting a freshly plucked strawberry at his family farm. - The Star.

Strawberries as red as rubies could be a refreshing alternative.

It would definitely be kinder on your wallet too, costing RM7 to RM20 per box.

Strawberry grower Yeep Kah Soon said the fruits were plucked daily as they ripened.

“The fruits are commonly the size of a quail’s egg but sometimes we get them as big as Grade C chicken eggs.

“The first two fruits in the first batch are usually jumbo-sized,” Yeep said at his family’s farm, Kea Farm, here.

Giving some tips on how to pick the best strawberries, the 20-year-old said: “The redder the colour, the sweeter it is.”

However, he said the size and taste of strawberries were ultimately determined by the weather.

“They grow best when there is more sunlight and less rain.”

Besides being sold at the various tourist stops in the area, Cameron Highlands strawberries are also distributed to other parts of the country.

Wonderful time touring Malaysia

Wonderful time touring Malaysia
Saturday February 10, 2007

I am writing to applaud Malaysia for giving us a fantastic holiday. We have stayed in the country for three weeks and are leaving tomorrow. We have stayed in Kuala Lumpur but have travelled to Cameron Highlands, Genting Highlands, Penang and Taman Negara.

Our favourite experience by far was in Taman Negara.

The locals of Kuala Tahan made us feel welcomed and we were really impressed that they had made an effort to learn the English names of the insects and animals so that we could benefit fully from the tours they provided.

The atmosphere at the floating restaurants was great too and we had a wonderful time chatting with the locals.

One disappointment though was a tendency of people in some places to charge tourists higher prices. Taxi drivers are the obvious culprits but all the ones we met were friendly.

We congratulate the folk in Taman Negara, Kuala Tahan and Cameron Highlands for not overcharging.

We would like to warn all tourists to avoid public toilets at all costs because even the ones you must pay to use are poorly maintained and lack toilet paper.

Malaysians are lovely and Malaysia is a great country. We will recommend friends visit the country.

Frenchman outshines renowned climbers for victory

CAMERON HIGHLANDS: The money was on the more renowned climbers to conquer the Third Stage, the ride up Cameroon Highlands yesterday.

But it was Credit Agricole’s Anthony Charteau who unexpectedly hit the jackpot to become the first Frenchman to wrest the yellow jersey in the Tour of Langkawi (LTdL).

Charteau was supposed to have set the pace for his team-mate and main rider, Francesco Bellotti. But he was so strong going up Cameron Highlands that he made it to the peak with more than three minutes to spare.

Among the other better-known climbers Charteau surprised were Jose Rujano (Unibet), defending champion David George (South Africa) and Jose Serpa (Selle Italia).

The 28-year-old Charteau completed the 133km stage, which was flagged off in Kuala Kangsar, in 3’40:45 – 3:54 ahead of Walter Pedraza of Selle Italia Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni.

Charteau takes over the leader’s jersey from Maximiliano Richeze of Ceramiche Panaria.

“At the end of the day, it’s a very good result for the Credit Agricole team,” said Charteau.

“My initial plan was to accompany the breakaway riders and wait for the team leader (Bellotti) at the top of the first climb.

“But I reached it with such a huge gap that it was out of the question for me to wait. I had to go for it.”

Charteau was among five riders who broke away at the 28km mark.

But as they reached the foothills of Cameron Highlands, Slipstream’s Mike Creed dropped off, leaving Charteau with Koji Fukushima, Lee Win Jae and Yukiya Arashiro.

Charteau then stormed away just before the halfway point and went on to claim the stage.

“With so many riders well placed in the general classification, it’s going to be easier for us to control the situation,” said Charteau.

“I'm not worried about the flat stages because that is something we know how to do at Credit Agricole.

“With the advantage I have now, I have to think about the overall win but if I can’t make it in Genting Highlands, Bellotti will be there. The gradients suit him well.”

Credit Agricole’s success was later met with some disappointment when they learnt that Bellotti, second overall last year, and team-mate William Bonnet had been penalised for sheltering behind a vehicle.

Both were fined 33 Swiss francs and penalised 40 seconds. Bonnet and Bellotti finished sixth and seventh respectively but after the penalty, they were relegated to 25th and 26th positions in the stage results.

Bellotti, suffering from a bout of diarrhoea, had apparently stopped some time during the race to ease himself, and was trying to catch up with the rest of the riders when he was adjudged to have infringed the rules.

The 178km Fourth Stage today starts in Gua Musang and ends in Kota Baru.

YTL's hotels and resorts great escapade

Packages for great escapades
By Chow How Ban
Saturday December 2, 2006

THOSE looking for holiday packages can check out The Great Escape, a showcase of YTL's hotels and resorts that is being held until Dec 10 at Starhill Gallery in Kuala Lumpur.

The showcase features award-winning properties like The Ritz-Carlton Kuala Lumpur, JW Marriott Hotel Kuala Lumpur, Pangkor Laut Resort, Tanjong Jara Resort in Terengganu, Cameron Highlands Resort and The Spa Village.

At a press conference held recently, YTL Hotels & Properties Sdn Bhd brand communications executive vice-president Kevin Tromp said while visitors found out more about the packages, masseurs from The Spa Village would be around to offer them mini-massages.

“With the purchase of any of these packages, they will get a free one-year YTL Platinum Plus membership which is a fabulous award programme offering things like beauty products and luggage within Starhill Gallery and spa treatment and vacations at Tanjong Jara Resort and Pangkor Laut Resort,” he said.

Tromp then briefed the media on the latest offerings and development at The Ritz-Carlton Kuala Lumpur, JW Marriott Hotel Kuala Lumpur, Pangkor Laut Resort, Tanjong Jara Resort, Cameron Highlands Resort and The Spa Village.

Tromp (right) and Cokkinias posing with a model of The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Kuala Lumpur.
“The Cameron Highlands Resort is doing very well. Many executive groups are choosing it as their retreat to get away from Kuala Lumpur as it has a nice environment,” he said.

Meanwhile, Tanjong Jara Resort, he said, had made it into the top five of the Best Overseas Hotel Spas in Asia and top 100 spas worldwide in the Conde Nast Traveller Readers' Travel Awards 2006.

He said the resort had launched The Spa Village which housed five new treatment pavilions, each of which featured an outdoor sunken bath and a designated Malay flower bath facility.

He said the spa facility at the resort offered guests an authentic spa treatment using traditional Malay techniques and recipes handed down from generation to generation.

“We have a strong brand in the making. At the moment, we have The Spa Village at Tanjong Jara Resort, Cameron Highlands Resort, Pangkor Laut Resort and The Ritz-Carlton.”

At the internationally acclaimed Pangkor Laut Resort, he said, the hill villas would be upgraded in time for Christmas and a few more restaurants offering Thai cuisine would be opened.

“Pangkor Laut Resort is a product that we are all proud of. We are taking the resort to another level and at the same time keeping its position for many years to come,” he added.

He revealed that the ground-breaking ceremony for the Majestic Hotel in Malacca had been held and the would be include a heritage building.

The Ritz-Carlton Kuala Lumpur general manager Steve Cokkinias said the hotel was departing from its traditionally classic image and transforming into a contemporary hotel catering for a younger market.

“The guestrooms were renovated recently. The new tower of suites was completed last year and we now have The Spa Village,” he said.

He added that the guestroom layout had been reorganised with iPod docks and other communication ports, enhanced lighting, new bedding, flat panel TV, CD and DVD players, marble bathrooms and flooring. - The Star

Stabilizing the price of vegetables

Distribution centres to be set up in Perak to stabilise prices of greens
Monday November 20, 2006

PUTRAJAYA: Two distribution centres will be set up in Perak in an effort to stabilise the prices of local greens, especially in the run-up to the festive season.

Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Shafie Apdal said these centres would act as a converging point for vegetables and fruits grown in Cameron Highlands.

“At these centres, vegetable and fruit farmers will be encouraged to sell their produce directly to the wholesalers, without having to go through many middlemen.

“In the long run, we hope such a move will benefit consumers by reducing the prices of greens, particularly when there are still some unscrupulous traders who continue to take advantage of the festive season by increasing the prices of goods during the festive season.

“We have found out that usually, the prices may increase during this period by a few sen, but by the time these reach the consumers, it will have increased manifold,” he told reporters after launching the Smart Consumer Day seminar here on Monday.

Shafie said the ministry was currently discussing with hypermarket chains Tesco and Giant to manage these centres, which would serve markets in the northern and southern regions of the peninsula respectively.

“We hope to set up these centres by the middle of next year, the latest by August or September.

“We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of such a scheme because we hope to set up similar centres in other parts of the country as well as to handle the distribution of fish and marine products at the country’s many jetties,” he said.

On the supply of sugar in the country, Shafie said the manufacturers in the country were still required to increase production by 50%.

“The directive is for them to increase production until such time when the ministry feels is no longer necessary,” he said. - The Star.

Council issues second stop work order

Council issues second stop work order
Saturday November 4, 2006

CAMERON HIGHLANDS district council has issued its second order against a developer to stop work on an eight-unit shoplot project in Tanah Rata.

Council president Datuk Mohd Noor Abdul Rani said for the time being, the developer was only allowed to build a new retaining wall after the existing one collapsed following a landslip last week.

The landslip had cut off portions of a hill right in front of two houses in Lorong Perdah, raising fear among residents living directly above the project site.

“We have been monitoring the project from time to time. From now on the developer has to adhere to our safety requirements before they can continue,” said Mohd Noor when contacted yesterday.

It was reported on Wednesday that one of the residents, housewife Caroline Tuijthof, 46, claimed the project had caused cracks to appear in the foundation of her house.

”We hope the developer could at least build a stronger retaining wall with proper drainage to check landslides,” she said.

However, another resident who only wanted to be known as Chendru, 39, denied that cracks had appeared in his house after the project started.

“The cracks have always been there,” he insisted.

Lebih Jaya Development Sdn Bhd director Low Ah Keong had said they had started building the second retaining wall in stages. He said the wall would be 9m high and would be completed in three months. - The Star.

Residents living in fear after landslip

Wednesday November 1, 2006

By Christina Koh

CAMERON HIGHLANDS: Portions of a hill in Tanah Rata here has been cut for an eight-unit shop lot, allegedly causing cracks and fear to families living on the same slope.

Just above the project of the affected slope in Lorong Perdah lives housewife Caroline Tuijthof, 46, who claimed that the project had caused cracks to appear in the foundation of her home.

The final straw was when a landslip occurred last week, aggravated by heavy rain, causing a 3.6m-wide section of the foundation of a neighbour’s house to collapse, said Tuijthof.

The landslip had also caused the collapse of its existing retaining wall that had helped support the slope, she said.



“At its worst, there is only one metre of ground from my neighbour’s house and the edge of the cliff. I don’t dare let my five-year-old daughter Joy play around here,” she said.

“We want to know how the Department of Environment (DOE) allowed the project.”

Tuijthof wanted the construction to stop until the developer could guarantee their safety, failing which, the family wanted the developer to at least build a stronger retaining wall with proper drainage so that their homes would not be vulnerable to landslides.

Her jewellery seller husband Ong Boon Beng, 51, said it seemed as if the developers were only concerned about finishing the project, which began in May this year.

Another resident K. Mogan, a nature guide, said the developer cut a large part of the hill, right up to their houses, until he felt like his home was at the edge of the hill.

“I’ve been scared out of my wits but feel a bit safer now that the developer has put in some sheet piling,” he said.

Cameron Highlands DOE branch head Ajis Hamjah said the department approved the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the 0.2ha project on March 31 this year.

“As far as I know, this is the smallest project in Malaysia with an EIA. Under the Environmental Quality Act, an EIA is only needed for projects exceeding 50ha. However, an EIA was provided here under the development guidelines,” he said.

Lebih Jaya Development Sdn Bhd director Low Ah Keong said they had started building a second retaining wall in stages, which would measure over 9m high, in three months’ time.

“It’s very safe. We have already received all the approvals and documentation from the DOE and council,” said Low.

Asked if their piling works could have caused the landslip, Low said: “We do not know. Since it has already happened, what matters now is building the retaining wall to rectify the situation.” - The Star

Camerons still place to relax in

Friday October 27, 2006

I REFER to the letter, “Bad holidays in Camerons” by Anita Qiu of Penang (The Star, Oct 26).

To me, spending your holidays in Cameron Highlands isn’t bad at all. It is just a matter of when you go there.

Qiu went to the highlands two days before Hari Raya. Therefore, she should expect that there would be a terrible traffic jam as people were rushing back to their hometowns or heading for holidays.

Illegal parking at Cameron Highlands could be avoided if one visits the resort during a non-festive season.

Parking has always been a problem as there is not enough parking space. The problem becomes worse during festive seasons.

However, I agree the multi-storey car park does not serve its original purpose of providing parking space for buses.

This is because of the poor architectural design. The building is too low and narrow for any vehicle.

Water supply has been insufficient on the highlands since a long time ago and during a festive season, consumption increases.

If there are fewer people on the highlands, then the problem with the water supply could be avoided.

In conclusion, Cameron Highlands should not be classified as a poor tourist spot because these problems occur mostly during the festive period.

It is indeed a great spot to relax in if you choose the correct time to spend your holidays there.

Bad holiday in Camerons

Thursday October 26, 2006

IF the authorities have no idea how to deliver the promise of local tourism, then please don't bother to promote it.

My family came to Cameron Highlands on Sunday. We rented one of the apartments, and within a span of just slightly over 24 hours, we began to regret spending our holiday in this so-called highland resort.

First, the traffic jam was terrible. I am not talking about the jam on the highway. That was insignificant when compared to the traffic jam in Cameron Highlands itself.

Illegal parking was rampant along the main road in Tanah Rata as everyone parked everywhere except in a building designated as a car park.

Their inconsiderate parking (and even double-parking while waiting) narrowed the already narrow street, causing massive jams to build up.

There is a reason why no one wanted to park in the designated multi-storey building. The new building's design is very bad. The lanes leading to and from the car park are so narrow that motorists will inevitably scratch the sides of their vehicles.

Even the clock has also stopped working in the building. Buses and taxis which are supposed to use the building are also avoiding it, thus adding to the congestion.

It is a sheer waste of taxpayers' money. But no one is learning because new traffic lights (which serve no real usefulness except to take up valuable parking lots) have also been set up along the narrow street.

Our woes culminated the next evening with the water authority cutting off water supply. Though a second dam has already been built, they claimed there is not enough water.

If that is the case, then Cameron Highlands should be taken off the list as a local tourist destination.

Can you imagine no water to wash our dishes and crockery during dinner time?

And not enough water to wash, bathe or flush the toilet?

Can the town council and water authority please explain?


ANITA QIU,
Penang.

Ramadhan Buka Puasa Time!

It is the start of Ramadhan, and boy, it is that time of the year where a whole lot yummy delicious food stalls are set up everywhere. Just behind my office, as usual there will be this long row of stalls selling all kinds of food from Malay style mixed rice selection, nasi lemak, barbequed chicken, and grilled seafood.

Yes, the ever popular grill seafood guy here is back again! And he remembered me and my wife too! After a one long year of absence, his stall has now been upgraded from the simple giant umbrella shelter to that of a small roof tent! It is a much better shelter than that of a flimsy giant umbrella. Sure it takes a little longer to set up and pack away when the day's activity is over. It makes for a very presentable Hari Raya Buka Puasa stall!

And yes, the sound of sizzling seafood grilling on his hot pan, and the wonderful aroma sure attracts lots of patrons. Me included! If my wife was around, she would certainly 'ta pau' his tilapia fish, giant sotong and ikan pari-pari (stingray). Hey, we are not taking any revenge on the stingray for piercing our beloved Animal Planet Crocodile Dundee guy - Steve Irwin; we Malaysians just love to eat just about anything that's worth eating or allowed!

My wife and I are not the only guys who are fond of his grilled seafood varieties, the long waiting list from patrons standing around for their order to be fulfilled is a tantamount to his great tasting fare. I think it must be his delicious marinating sauce. He applies quite a generous amount on his cooking, sandwiched with banana leaf to give that oo-la-la one of a kind mouth watering taste to his seafood.

And if I pack back the food, my pet cat Casper will be clamoring for a piece of it. He would stare at me and make sad sounding cat meows, and if I ignore him too much, he would jump onto the dining table, resulting in a quick reprimand for his drastic action!

"No, Casper! Down boy!" and of course I will get an earful from my wife about having a cat that just wants his own way and cannot quite be properly trained, and how unhygienic it is for a cat to walk around the dining table where the food is laid and so forth and so on... I think I spoil my pet cat too much! And yes, he will get a few pieces of it and he would gladly munch it all down and having satisfied himself. Will sit around enjoying our company. Sheesh, my cat has it way too easy!

Well, the Ramadhan will go on for a month till the Hari Raya Puasa which falls on the 24th and 25th October. So I will get to savour all the buka puasa delicacy just behind my office for one whole month and yet again!

And as for Cameron Highlands? Well they still have the night market, and they do have lots of food to offer. But you won't be able to find any grill seafood there; perhaps you might want to start one yourself?

Wishing all my Muslim readers and friends a happy Hari Raya Puasa!

Hotel Equatorial Promotion

As the Ramadan fasting month draws near, there will be a flurry of promotion going on with the various hotels. Hotel Equatorial Cameron Highlands is no different and has tie-in with a Southern Bank Direct Access credit card.

I received this voucher together with my recent credit card statement. And it says here RM388 per room for 4 nights consecutive stay, but as usual there is a limitation, you can only stay during the weekdays from Sunday to Thursday.

These are the low visiting period that's when the tourist visiting Cameron Highlands are few and in between. Still at RM388 per room for 4 nights consecutive stay, that comes to about RM97 per night. That's not too bad considering that if you stayed at the shop house hotels like Jasmine Hotel, Parkland, Kowloon etc in Brinchang or Tanah Rata would be about around this price range already.

But wait, there is more! They are also offering:

• Simpang Pulai Toll Rebate - Enjoy a rebate off your one way Simpang Pulai entry toll receipt. Terms & Conditions apply (yea, yea as usual please read the fine print!)
• Discount for Breakfast - Stay and enjoy a 20% discount on Food & Beverage at Coffee Shop.

But do take note that on the weekdays, the Brinchang night market will not be open except during the school holidays. So if you really enjoy going to "pasar malam", don't be disappointed that it is not available during your weekday stay. But I do know we Malaysians has the "shop till you drop" kind of syndrome, or even window shopping if you just take a look at the crazy traffic at the various giant malls that we have during the weekends!

Well you could carry out other healthy activities instead of just shopping! There are many sights and attractions and things to do in Cameron Highlands.

If you are a Southern Bank Direct Access credit card holder and plan to use your vouchers you can find out more about it at: http://www.equatorial.com/da or give them a call at 1-800-88-1800.

For more info check out Hotel Equatorial Cameron Highlands webpage.

Aw, not a SBB Direct Access credit card holder? Well you could check out the Cameron Highlands Hotels and Accommodation list which I have compiled.

Happy traveling!

Stay for free at Teluk Dalam Resort

Could this be true? Stay for free at Teluk Dalam Resort Pangkor? Not really. There is a catch; it says here just pay RM70 per person per night for breakfast and dinner. So if you are going on a twin share basis that comes to about RM140 per night. Not entirely free if I would say so.

The reason they are coming up with this promotion from 25th September to 20th October, 2006 is because of Ramadan fasting month. I guess it will be low peak season until the Hari Raya weekend begins from 21st till 25th October.

Well if you think this is a good deal you can call them and make a booking.

Oh, you may be wondering why I'm promoting Pulau Pangkor. Well, I'm just taking a break from my usual Cameron Highlands articles. But if you want to find out more about Pulau Pangkor you could check out Peter's Pulau Pangkor website.

But he is not here in Malaysia at this moment. He emailed me to inform that he is now in Laos for a short cycling adventure. Ah, he seems to have all the time in the world to bike around all day long! Well, not all of us mortals get the luxury to go for holiday whenever we like. Hopefully one day I will have the same kind of luxury.

Meantime, I owe, I owe, so off to work I go! :)

Cheerio!

Farms and agriculture in Cameron Highlands

Fama To Build RM10 Mln Collection And Distribution Centre

CAMERON HIGHLANDS, Sept 8 (Bernama) -- The Federal Agriculture Marketing Authority (Fama) is setting up a collection and distribution centre for agricultural produce to help farmers maintain the quality of their products.

Its chairman, Datuk Abdul Rahim Bakri, said the centre would also serve as a training centre to prepare farmers in facing the global challenges in the agriculture sector.

He said the collection and distribution centre, costing RM10 million, would be built on a two-hectare site in Sungai Burung here.

"The free trade agreement with Thailand and Indonesia will bring huge challenges and competition in the distribution of agricultural produce, especially for local produce," he added after a dialogue with farmers' associations here.

He said the proposed centre would also serve as a centre for packaging and grading of the farmers' agricultural produce.

"Most of the farmers here use rattan baskets to carry their agricultural produce and this damages the vegetables, while they also do not have facilities to grade and pack their produce," he said, adding that this resulted in the vegetables not meeting the wholesalers' standards, causing the goods to be sold at lower prices. -- BERNAMA

Tourism Minister wants Malaysians to holiday at home more
Lack of Malaysians travelling locally worries tourism minister
Wednesday August 16, 2006

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysians are not travelling a lot domestically and this gives the Tourism Minister much worry.

“Our people are unaware that there are lots of places to visit in our country,” said Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor.

“We want our people to spend their vacations in Malaysia as we are worried that there may be more Malaysians visiting other countries than foreign tourists coming to Malaysia.”

He said the ministry would re-examine its plans to encourage Malaysians to travel domestically.

“For example, Gua Tempurung is for the adventurous traveller. If you want a change of weather, you can go to the highlands such as Bukit Tinggi, Genting Highlands, the Cameron Highlands and Fraser’s Hill,” he told reporters at the briefing on the Langkawi International Boat Exhibition (Libex) at the Putra World Trade Centre here yesterday. - The Star
