of Kampung Dedari, a short boat ride upstream
the Tembeling River from Kuala Tahan.
It's quite a nostalgic trip for me
since i am here to check on
those who are with me in a photo taken 35 years ago(1983)
at the campsite of Taman Negara,Kuala Tahan.
my son Wei Yang with a younger school going batch.
Sad to hear from Tok Batin Sena that the one in the middle is no more with us and
the where about of the rest unknown,they should be between 40-55 years of age now.
Yang with village headman,Tok Batin Sena.
