Busy Malaysians revisit Fraser’s Hill after 25 years


Catching the beautiful sunrise.

When someone in our walking group suggested going on a three-day, two-night holiday in Fraser’s Hill, Pahang, my wife and I were actually not so thrilled by the idea. We were there with our children 25 years ago and had found it to be boring. Nevertheless, just to please the group, we reluctantly agreed to join them.

The Clock Tower was built in 1989.

After our first trip there, my wife developed a sort of “fear of long drives”, especially one where the roads are winding and the drive is not smooth. It causes her to be dizzy and nauseous. So she really was not looking forward to the drive this time around, and voiced her concern in our group chat.
