My Expedition Trip to Gunung Mulu National Park (Before)


Hi everyone!! This is my essay competition (exact) between 22 selected students from my school.. Its about my expedition trip to Gunung Mulu National Park in March 2010. So, do hope you'll enjoy what I encountered and saw there, with some help from photos we've taken there.. There will be more posts coming up as it was a 6 days trip.. So, grab a cup of coffee and some cookies while enjoying yourselves reading it.. Don't feel shy to leave some comments too!! ^^ Let the expedition begin!!


Home to the world's largest cave passage, the world's largest natural chamber and the largest cave in Southeast Asia, with amazingly total of 79 cave systems gobbling up a vast area of 544 km square, sits the world-known Gunung Mulu National Park of Sarawak, Malaysia. Gunung Mulu National Park is the "jewel in the crown" of Sarawak and a highlight of Borneo tours. It is also home for thousands species of floras and faunas supporting the perfect balance of ecosystem. Mulu was a paradise-untouched-by-men until 1997 where a Royal Expedition came in and turns it into the harmony point where children of Adam and Eves meets the masterpiece of Mother Nature.

I've participated an expedition to Mulu Caverns and The Pinnacles organized by my school, SMJK Yu Hua, Kajang, Selangor from 19th to 24th March 2010 (6 days 5 nights). The team was formed by 22 students (17 and 18 years old) - 20 uniform group leaders and 2 club presidents, and 4 honourly saluted teachers. It took us nearly 5 months of plannings, fund raising and physical plus mental preparations to succeed this!!
