Today I visited the Sabah Forestry Department in Beluran District. Though the Office is far from town but the landscaping looks great. Pritchardia pacifica has become a focus today since it bear hundreds of fruits with striking color. I'd like to share what I see here today.

Our beautiful terrain.

Sabah is the most beautiful state in Malaysia. It has a the world's highest via ferrata. Almost every weekend I'll come to Bundu Tuhan junction (near the place where I took these pictures) to buy vegetables. The temperature is around 14 degree Celsius in the evening. Perhaps, that is why the vegetables always fresh and last longer.
