BTP scientific visit

BTP organized scientific visit in order to broaden our horizon especially in phytopharmaceutical areas, especially on Mas Cotek as a potential Malaysian herb. In the same time it was Wesak day in between and we use that opportunity to visit Pulau Perhentian Kecil.

We were giving an introduction about Mas Cotek at Mardi Telong. They got dedicated site for growing the Mas Cotek.

After that we are heading to Pulau Perhentian for the rest of the day. This is the view after 12 a.m, seem it was just few stalls still open for tourist to hang out. What a relieve to sip a hot coffee beside the sea view.
