My fellow Cameronians & Friends
I write this as a sign of gratitude & thanks, for electing me as the new president of REACH.
REACH has always been spearheaded by my brother & close friend, the late Tuan Rama. Though it is still hard to digest his demise, and impossible to fill his shoes, I assure you that I will do my best with utmost integrity and responsibility, for this is my home.
This is the place I grew up. This is the place that educated me and made me who I am today. It is my duty to uphold what Tuan Rama & REACH has been fighting for through the years, in preserving and restoring the nature & environment of Cameron Highlands.
Watching their spirit and undying love for Camerons from a young age, has instilled a deep sense of attachment towards nature in me.
Reach is not about one man. Not about any individual. It is about our responsibility as a collective unit, towards the preservation of the environment, as well as our united effort to help restore the damage that has been done through uncontrolled development.
Together, with a strong committee, we will continue our work & effort as an awareness society, ensuring Cameron Highlands to be a sustainable agricultural platform while preserving the beautiful and lush rainforest.
Once again, my heartfelt gratitude in your confidence. Let us stand together, as one, fighting for what is right and caring for this place we call home.
