ON Feb 29, a group of geocachers came together at a special Leap Day Event in Kuala Lumpur. Held at Suria KLCC and organised by Geocaching Malaysia’s Steven Timmermans and Daniel Victor, the event received promising attention from both local and a couple of British geocachers. The two-hour meet-and-greet saw everyone joining the search for the official 2016 Leap Day Cache followed by a multi-stage cache hunt.

Popular in the United States and Europe (most likely because most caches are hidden there), geocaching is slowly gaining ­popularity here in Malaysia.
