Endau Rompin, Johor, Malaysia


Shot taken in Endau Rompin Posted by Hello

ER, situated at the border of Johor and Pahang. Smack in the middle of a rainforest. We travelled 4hours from Singapore, reaching to the small town of Kahang (Nearest town to ER)
last stopover for supplies of water, food and neccesities, before a bumpy ride towards ER (59km of dirt, stones, bridges and whole lot of sun).Our mission was to help MNS survey the species of butterflies in the nature reserve. Upon arrival, I was without words, amazed with the facilities of the ER HQ and if I might add, the 'chalets' were pretty well maintained (too bad, I didn't take a pix of the resort). Mostly timber construction, sure reminded me of my Army dayz in P. Tekong. Well, they have bunk beds, pillow & blanket to make our lifes comforty. Meals are provided, we get 3 full meals, tea and supper (if we pay for that :) ) Each house/chalet divided into sexes (Male/Female) and each comes with a shared toilet on 2 floors (Sleeping quarters on the 2nd floor, 1st floor is a void). Only the main HQ (according to Mr. khew aka butterflypal guru :) ) is the only camp with some comfort provided. And we get electricity supply after dark, got socket even for charging :P
