The
Social Sub Committee successfully organized a day trip to FRIM, Kepong
on Sunday, 29th August 2004. The group of 29 enthusiastic participants
consisted of PAAM members and their families, fellow staff and Leo club
members. The programs arranged for the day included the famous jungle
trekking and canopy walk. The group was first given a briefing about FRIM
by the assigned officer who was also our guide for the day. The journey
started around 10am with a visit to the museum, later followed by jungle
trekking, canopy walk and finally back to the level ground to have our
packed lunch under the trees accompanied by a cooling breeze. The canopy
walk has four stations whereby each station offers a breathtaking panorama
including the prominent skyscraper Kuala Lumpur Twin Towers (KLCC). However,
the river was almost motionless due to the dry season this year around.
Everyone was exhausted but they were very happy for being able to explore
the jungle, smell the green leaves and breathe the fresh air. All of us
were so amazed with mother-nature. We hope that more activities such as
this one will be organized in the near future.
