Industrial Visit to Cameron Highland, November 2006






Travelling is the best way of garnering knowledge... Experts claim that as much as 60 percent of communication in daily human life is through visual stimulation. Getting to the see something for real will leave a greater impact to our mind and ensure a more lasting memory...
That's why trips are my favorite programs in my campus life. Recently, again i had the opportunity to help organize an industrial visit to Cameron Highland...
Cameron Highland, did not actually change much from the time i last visited it 5 years ago. Nevertheless, my feeling is different from the that of previous visit as this time around, i went with my campus mates and not my family. Fortunately enough, I did have the chance to meet some new friends as well.
Our mission of doing this trip was like, "Kill two birds with one stone," or rather "Kill three birds with one stones." Our very 'noble' objective was to gain exposure on the processing operation of agro-based products. However, our hidden agendas were to raise some funds for another international trip to Korea in May 2007. The revenue gained form this trip would be used for the international trip. We also made appointments with managers of the companies we visited to discuss for another program that we are doing in March! Yeah, talk about fully utilising your chance, huh?
We visited MARDI and BOH tea plantation. Besides, we did also visit the famous nurseries and farms such as Cactus VAlley and Rose Valley. On the last day of the visit, we also visit the mysterious Kellie's Castle in Batu Gajah...
All in all, the trip was very interesting and will be a good memory after a semester of hardwork and stress. It kisses goodbye to the past semester and marks the opening of the time i enjoy most in a year; HOLIDAYS!!!
Happy holidays everyone...
