Himpunan Hijau 109's Photos
First shot I took upon arrival at 7am. Some of the participants even camped the night!
Rare Earth and BolehLand!
An insight into how things happened!
The very first time I heard about Rare Earth was when there was an announcement about some Mining Giant from Australia investing in a rare earth processing plant in Gebeng, Kuantan, Pahang way back sometime in 2008. A lot of money will be invested over a couple of years to build the plant.
Wow, great I thought. That will surely bring back some life into Gebeng ever since the last Chief Minister of Pahang was promoted to become The Yang Di Pertua Negeri of Malacca which was experiencing some great developments.
Then the European Financial Crisis happened in 2009 and the group of German Bankers that was financing the whole deal pulled back and the whole thing was K.I.V. Sei Loh! The contractors cried. Who are going to pay us?
