2014 New Year FRIM walk and trekking

Batch of August 2005 

UTAR Alumni Association of Malaysia organised the walk and trekking to promote healthy lifestyle and to create awareness of the recreation parks around us.  

It was a bright and sunny morning on 5 January 2014 when Association chairperson Emin, committee member Jun Chong and Department of Alumni Relations and Placement staff Wan Poh gathered at the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM) Club and Cafeteria to usher in the Year of the Horse with the maiden activity of the association.  

It was quite a relaxing and rejuvenating walk as we relished the plush greenery of FRIM and watched exercise enthusiasts engaged in their daily workout regime. Cyclists breezed through the cycling lane while chatting among themselves. However, climbing the small hill that leads to canopy area proved to be an arduous task for beginners and non-seasoned climbers.  

At the end of the walk and trekking, we were feeling hungry and headed straight to the hawker stalls adjacent of FRIM and had a delightful 'brunch' (breakfast cum lunch).  

In future, UTAR Alumni Association plans to organise more activities of similar nature and hopes that more alumni will take part in the fun. Happy New Year, everyone!
