C2U... Operasi Berkebun.....

Last Saturday, it was the day we had Operasi Berkebun ( Operation Gardening). We went to a village in Hulu Langat. This village is call Ongkil. It is a very small place with only three houses, a tadika and a small garden on a hill about 10 to 15 minutes hike. The path up is really, REALLY narrow. One mistake and you WILL go rolling DOWN to the main road. The orang asli children are quite shy. When you walked pass them, ALL of them will stare at you with their mouth wide open. They look like they never seen a human being before.

There we didn't actually do gardening. Instead, we did Operasi Berlindung ( Operation Protect) We build fences around the garden to protect it from wild boars and other wild animals. It wasn't an easy job and we've how to cut bamboo. The bamboo is very tough so it takes alot of strength to cut it. If we have an electric saw, it would have been easier but we used machetes or " parang ". After all the cutting, hammering it to the ground and fixing the fences up, we hiked down again for lunch. Hiking down was easier then hiking up. After lunch, we rested a while, prayed and then we left for church.
