Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta Ep6: Bukit Wang, Kedah

Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta is our monthly tourism-themed series on Earth Matters, which aims to highlight lesser-known ecotourism spots right here in Malaysia. Done in collaboration with the Ecotourism & Conservation Society Malaysia (ECOMY), we want to take you back to the great outdoors, and experience the many off-the-beaten-track nature spots our country has to offer. This month, we're heading to Kedah, to visit places like Taman Eko Rimba Bukit Wang, Air Terjun Bukit Perangin, Pedu Lake, Ulu Muda and more, with our guide, Andrew Sebastian, the Founder & Chief Executive Officer of ECOMY.
