The Mountains of Datuk & Nuang

The barren rocks at the top of Gunung Datuk.
A crowded morning - few groups of school children were climbing with us that day.
Along the hike up to Gunung Nuang via Janda Baik village, lands are cleared by orang asli for agriculture.
Orang asli settlement.
Manual labour. An elderly Indonesian worker carries a hefty basket of four-angled beans to the lorry pick-up point a good distance away.
