On the August Monthly Meet, we have a chance to meet Orang Asal (indigenous people) in person, talk to them, and understand their culture. The small Semai community stays in the laid back hills of Gombak.
The highlight of the visit to Orang Asal was the special musical performance By Encik Rahman, he holds a “Pensol” (flute), and blows out music via NOSE.
Besides enjoying the environment and the companion by Orang Asal, we also managed to help them clean the river in the community. It was sad to see rubbish scattered everywhere in and around the river. Can you imagine if your water source is spoiled by all the rubbish thrown by irresponsible intruders?
Here are some photos of the activities during the visit. I will let the photos do the talking.
Unspoilt waterfall, beautiful, isn't it?
