I planted a tree today. Well, I actually carried a small tree up Gasing Hill (Bukit Gasing) and placed it in one of the holes dug up by volunteers in a tree re-planting exercise organized by the Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ).

The replanting exercise is done to replace trees lost in a fire in this forest reserve earlier this year. I was actually there (its a favourite hiking haunt for my girlfriend and I) when we saw the smouldering trees. The new tree that we planted this morning was placed at the peak (by yours truly), a short hike from the observation tower.

In any case, the replanting exercise will continue this October 10th (my birthday btw, I accept PSPGo and Xbox 360 consoles and even the Fallout 3 GOTY edition for the Sony PS3), and the aim here is to get 350 trees planted. So go on and land a hand.
