my first time experience with the ORANG ASLI BATEK

the Tok Batin demonstrating a "menyumpit" activity

during the trip to Pahang, we did not miss the opportunity to visit the perkampungan orang asli located nearby the taman negara. I was amazed at how their lifestyle is and even imagine how the orang asli must have felt whenever people would come to their territory and captured pics after pics and felt how interrupted their privacy was. the Batek people are shy, they don't really speak Malay language and they live in huts like most orang asli tribe does. above are some pictures that i managed to capture even the subject matter shows a lot of hesitation and shyness.

KEHIJAUAN TAMAN NEGARA PAHANG

we were lucky enuf to had the chance to go to the Taman Negara Pahang last month..as many people know, the taman negara is filled with A LOT of green landscapes..there are many trees that ages from 50 years to more than 200 years. thankfully i brought along a macro lens that i borrowed from the faculty so i managed to capture some of these photos below. enjoy and don't hesitate to leave a comment..TQ
