For the record,the last picnic or outdoor gathering organized by KPAC committees was to FRIM on 27th Jan 2007.
A pat on the shoulder should be given to Leong for all the initiatives he had had taken in order to ensure it was a successful trip.From day one,he almost single-handedly spread the news and contact those members who are interested and persuade the experience ones to join in.
The trip was initially planned for 9th Jan 2011 but was brought forward one week earlier due to some unforeseen circumstances.Many had to abandon the plan because the next day was the beginning of school.
Finally 15 of us went on with the idea.They were Peter Goh,Lee Foo Kien,Seah Leong San,Leong Ann Lok,Simon Ng,Ng Kim Leng,Eric Teh Poh Chin,Chua Siong Pek,Lim Boon Wah,Chua Hock Boon,Anthony Chong,Foo Chee Chung and three female members,Alice Chi,Khoo Lay Ngoh and Lim Pei Yin.
The trekkers were divided into two groups.At 4.00am,the first batch of 9 participants arrived at the stipulated meeting location and had an early Bak Kut Teh (spare rib soup with rice) for breakfast in Klang town.For general information,the popular BKT is sold 24hrs in some parts of the town.
At 5.00am the group headed to Pekan Batu 18,Hulu Langat police station which is a 45 minutes drive from Klang,to submit in the list of trekkers' names before proceeding to the base of Gunung Nuang.Foods such as chicken rice,bread and buns and bananas which were earlier prepared were distributed to all.

Except for Seah Leong San and Eric Teh,at 6.40am 7 of us began our journey to the top led by Leong.Seah and Eric were assigned to wait for the second batch of trekkers.
The lights from our torch lights penetrated through the darkness as we strolled into the thick jungle and greeted by the sound of thousand of insects.Most of us were first timer and we stick together and follow the leader.Nothing much could be recalled as the ambience was still dark.
An hour into our walk,we finally reached Kem Lolo at 8.00am.Took a break and half an hour later our second batch of friends led by Seah and Eric caught up with us...to be continued
