First of all i would like to thanks to the organizer, Abg Zainul Fikri and Ibu Marlina for allowed me be a part of this volunteering work. Without them i don’t know such a works is going on in my land. Also to Kak Wati for being “mulut ringan” introduced me to those events and peoples to me. Not to forget Kandu Eco Adventure for this event as well (sponsoring us for accomodation, facilities and food for sure). I really appreciate it and really looking forward for such an event to preserve our mother nature, also giving awareness to all Malaysian. With little works i can contribute, am hoping very soon Malaysian will be more alerts with environmental issues.
If someone ask me about the cave, what the most i remember is stalactite and stalagmite. Till now am still unsure which one form from ceiling and floor of the cave. Thanks to google, now i know which one on the right position. What i’v had learn from this reservation works, for certain formations, for 1mm3 will take approximately up to 100yrs or more (correct me if am wrong, i have to do some google on it). So lets preserve it NOW for our next generation.
If you seeing the different qualities from one picture to another because the good quality one not from me. Am only geared up with my old mobile phone, Sony Ericson and iPhone 3G. Still functioning really well….. next time i need to bring my old Olympus E510 as well. What always when doing outdoor stuffs, i want the lightest as i can, that why i will leave my Oly at home. Kesian kan.

10:05 : some explanations from our leader that day, Mr. John Sharif before we entering the cave.
looking at the mapping work the done last time in Gua Kandu.
at the cave’s entrance clearly we can read on those stuffs on the wall. Please don’t do such a thing on our nature guys. Its destroy the beautiful. As what i heard, the will be another conservation works to clean up the wall from those things. To all Malaysian please don’t write anything on the cave’s wall please.
can you guys read those on the wall? That's really bad for !!!
looking above your head, thats what u can see
flower to cheer up my lens
10:12 : Entering Gua Kandu, for sure its dark. Switch on your head lamp please.
I don't have powerful flash light like dslr, i just rely on those head lamp and flash form my mobile. But still managed to take those picture in the darkness. With the power or flash from my sony ericson i can frame that spiders.
need another conservation works to wash off those.
squeeze in please….take a deep breath to go trough it, he he….that’s cave offering us man. I still remember my 1st time at Gua Angin, Kota Gelanggi, Jerantut. i had to squeeze in very small space just fit for one person. To pass that space, we need to pass one side of of leg and body first.
10:18 : that is Japanese hand writing i think. As told my the owner of Kandu Eco Advanture, during the war with British empire and Japanese, this cave is used by Japanese for their defense.
