cameron highland malaysia

I always like to have a holiday in the cool weather of Cameron Highland. It gives me the refreshing feeling, away from the pressing tropical heat of Kuala Lumpur. I had selected an articles from ezine on the subject. --------------------------------

Market in The Clouds
By Zainal Nazam Mohd Noor
 The cool, refreshing air felt rejuvenating as I stepped out of the car. It's a far cry from the hot, humid weather of Kuala Lumpur where I live. The previous time my family and I came to Brinchang in Cameron Highlands (about 1500m above sea level) was about a decade ago. My youngest daughter, Nisyah, suggested that we go somewhere cooler for the short school holidays to escape the heat and humidity of Kuala Lumpur. The drive up to Cameron Highlands was a pleasant 2 1/2 hour journey across scenic lush vegetation dotted by many Orang Asli (Malaysian indigenous people) villages.

As we climbed higher, the vegetation turned from tropical rain forest to a temperate land type. It was about ten in the morning when we arrived and there were already a large number of people at the well-known vegetable market near the Equitorial Hotel. Finding a place to park took quite a while but we managed to find a space not too far away from the market. The market has changed a lot with permanent brick shops arranged neatly in rows alongside the road compared to the previous scatter of wooden stalls. "Can I have a strawberry balloon?" asked Nisyah, pointing to the many red colored strawberry-like balloons. As usual, she got her way and ended up with three different red strawberry balloons. My two other daughters, Syafiqah and Syahirah, and son, Khaled, were busy running from one shop to another admiring the many different kinds of fresh vegetables and of course, the strawberries. The current variety of strawberries grown in Cameron Highlands is now bigger, juicier and tastier than the ones grown a decade ago. You can find strawberry chocolates, jam, candy and tea, apart from the usual assortment of T-shirts, umbrellas, and other strawberry souvenirs here.

 There were lots and lots of vegetables: colorful cauliflowers in unusual shades of blue, green and red apart from the normal white; large, shiny red and green chilies; numerous varieties of red and yellow succulent tomatoes; and a myriad assortment of leafy vegetables all laid out neatly on shelves in the shops. It was a difficult decision choosing which vegetables to buy, so, we ended up buying a bit of each. You can imagine the amount we bought.

 Moving around the shops, I noticed something else that was different about the market - the people manning the shops were mostly Indonesians. As I looked around, I also spotted Bangladeshi and Vietnamese workers. Even our highlands have not escaped the influx of foreign labor. It was time to leave as we still had a number of other places to visit. I couldn't help but praise how the market has improved. Its cleaner, more organized and the quality of the produce is definitely better. And oh, those strawberries - heavenly delicious!

 Cameron Highlands is the smallest district in the state of Pahang which is located in the north-western corner of the state. It is the largest and most famous hill resort in the Malaysia, a country in Southeast Asia bordering Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia. It is near the Equator and has a tropical climate.
