Fly Tipping in Malaysia

So we are now in Malaysia. We have been to the Perhentian islands, and werent over impressed with many aspects - especially standards of accommodation.

We are now in the Cameron Highlands, and recently went on a trek to see the biggest flower in the world - the rafflesia.

The day before this we went to a local tea plantation - which was beautiful. Along the way we found this - not very impressive!!!

Apparently the hightlands, which are largely jungle are currently being bought at an alarming rate by chinese, indian and european businesses to plant palm oil plants (much like Borneo). Expect this wilderness not to be here in 30 years.

Another great example of mans evolution.
