FRASER’s Hill has many lovers and we residents don’t mind sharing it. From the time the Bishop of Singapore, the Right Reverend CJ Ferguson-Davie, and the Chaplain of Selangor, Reverend AB Champion, went on that little excursion up the hill on the bridle path to see what was up here in 1917 – or perhaps even more than a decade before that, when the mysterious Louis (Lewis) Fraser was said to have chosen the hill to explore mining – the hill has had a way of charming one’s heart and senses. If one opens one’s heart and senses.

For someone like me who spent my entire childhood on this special hill, it is where my heart belongs. In recent years I find myself running to it every now and then and am slowly re-growing roots there.
