Scientific Expedition of Melaka Forests

I joined the Scientific Expedition of Melaka Forest 2025 organized by Jabatan Perhutanan Negeri Melaka and Jabatan Perhutanan Semenanjung Malaysia on 22-26 June 2025. The expedition covered three forest reserves - Hutan Simpan Bukit Sedanan, Hutan Simpan Bukit Senggeh and Hutan Simpan Batang Melaka. The basecamp of the expedition was located at Taman Negeri Melaka Bukit Sedanan.
