Botanical Garden Penang



The above video was shot last week. We went there to test out my new vegan friendly shoe (Merrel Waterpro Current) that I bought a week ago. Very light and comfy footwear. We parked our car further away from the main entrance to save parking fees :). Unfortunately dogs are not allowed to go in and we cannot feed the monkeys too. To me this is absurd and not 'cool' at all. Anyway it was a fine weather during that day and we, my wife and I enjoyed the walk very much and I must say my new shoe rocks! Enjoy the video!

ps : long time ago when I was a kid, my dad used to bring us to Botanical Garden and I remember seeing big monkey ( gorilla/ ape/ orang utan ) and bears too during that time. Unfortunately they all died due to starvation according to Joseph's mom. What a shame!

Have you been to Bukit Merah? That place is pretty neat for seeing orangutans and other animals.

Sorry, I never been to Bukit Merah before, I mean not exactly drove inside, just pass the highway many times :)
I do hope our government take these orangutans seriously and not repeat the same mistakes by neglecting them just in their cages without proper food and water.
