Kg Baru Sungai Perdak villagers dream of agrotourism


The Book family house at the entrance to Kampung Baru Sungai Perdak holds many fond memories for the villagers.

DRIVING one-and-a-half hours to his orchard is something that 70-year-old Book Ah Tak looks forward to each time he makes the journey.

The retired senior bank officer starts his trip at 6am sharp from his Subang Jaya home to his orchard in Karak, Bentong.
