Why The Need To Work Towards Safe Trekking
After our highlight on the BukitTabur tragedy and accidents that happened in Bukit Tabur, we received numerous e-mails and responses from different parties having different agendas.
We welcome contribution from anyone who has a passion to make Bukit Tabur a haven for trekking.
We would also appeal for your assistance to help us, spread these messages, through e-mails, linking http;//allabtbukittabur.blogspot.com to your blogs, and websites etc, informing others and drives home a point.
" Working towards an accident-free trek before accident happens is better than to do rescue and evacuation when accidents happen. "
Currently there isn't any safety guidelines, no classification of danger in the mountain climbing standard, no one undertake to ensure that this is a safe place for trekking.
Strictly, there is no way that we are to bear any responsbility to ensure no accidents will happen after you read our postings.
we are just doing our part, within our ability and capacity which you may say as conservation.
Despite the fact that it is dangerous, many people still turned up at the foothills,
and trek up Bukit Tabur,
weeks after weeks.
It goes without saying that Bukit Tabur is such beautiful haven for trekkers but the danger cannot be undermine.
Trekking on the top / the range of Bukit Tabur with its vertical drop between 100 to 300 meters underneath, at different spots
is like walking on tight rope with 100 to 300 meters of height without safety net at the bottom.
Many people would just refuse or fret if you ask them to walk on the tight rope with 100 meters to 300 meter 's potential fall without safety net underneath.
But from what our observation, there are many who follow their friend who has gone there once or twice, have enjoyed themselves thoroughly in that place less aware that it indeed is a dangerous terrain.
Seeing some of them trek at the danger zones will make you miss your heartbeats if you do not have strong heart.
However, if everyone of us can contribute positively without even thinking about how this contribution can lead you to any expectation on financial benefit, I can see that this community service can be a successful project for the trekking communities.
We put up some danger notices along the trail at strategic places, at eye level, safe to read on relatively safe ground.
Last Saturday when we were up there, we noticed that one of the notice was displaced, the danger notice was taken down from the tree and tied to the rock, which is the danger spot itself.
We are of the opinion that this could be more dangerous than that you can read at eye level on a safe place than reading it right on the danger spot itself.
Definately there is a need to provide more positive inputs on volunteer basis to make this a better place for trekking, before more accidents happen or until there is plan by the authority to take over to manage this place.
Over to You.

The Rojak Of Life
http://thetrekkers.blogspot.com will be reorganised & redefined.
In view of the traffics and visitors from different races, religions and background, looking for information on Bukit Tabur in my blog.
I see a need to reorganise & redefine my blog.
There will be a spin-off on the subject of Bukit Tabur from now on.
Currently information on the blog is like Rojak.
There are many types of Rojak ( kind of salad with localise sauce, serve with chili, prawn paste, groundnuts mix together ) available in our multi-cultural society, serve by famous chefs in the hotel & restaurents, there are some tasty and yummy delicious yet very cheap serve at the road side stalls as well as by the peddlers on a motorbike who goes places to promote their food.
basically, you have Fruit Rojak that is like by most.
You have also Seafood Rojak that is superb tastety to the tastebud of one while another just cannot tolerate it.
The Vegetarian might like it without any meat in any of their rojak etc, but instead there are others who wants ham and bacon and lamb to be in their Meaty Rojak.
I am aware that the type of Rojak is heaven to one but may not be acceptable to others.
So My Rojak blog will be reorganised N redefined to suit all people from different background so the positive of good blogging prevails to reach bigger pool of audiences and visitors.
As sharing is my passion, one of the blog will be with anything on life adventures, perception & thoughts, people & happening, incidents & events or anything that is under the sun.
Whether it's mine or other person which I think fit to share.
I hope to help generate little flames to lit up thoughts and thinking, making life more interesting.
The others will be on Bukit Tabur at the Klang Gate which is for everyone cutting across race, religion and background.
We will extract postings regarding Bukit Tabur and post it as information for anyone as a community service to all.
( probably this will take some consolidation, editting etc while retaining our identity)
