Penang Hill Climb TAKE 2

On the passed few posts, I have written about the Penang Hill Climbing which organized by Lion Club and I even met Chief Minister YAB Lim Guan Eng. Today I will continue with the part 2 and make an ending for this post. My school annual climbing competition also held at Penang Hill, Penang Hill really attracted a lot of people whether they're local or tourists.

As well as what you can see here is my dad was tiring after walked for a long distance. Can you imagine that 30% of the gradient was showing on the signboard? Can you see the road was so slope and it's hardly to climb up.

We spent about 2 hours to climb up to the top of hill. Along the journey we saw people running, chit-chatting and listening to music. But unfortunately got one people fell down and fainted down. We were so happy that we could able reach the top of the hill.

The ceremony was something usual for most of the sports events. But this was my first time being on top of Penang Hill to watch this ceremony. Actually it's not a such big stage for the ceremony, it's just only can put about 30+ chairs. By the way, we can see TYT, Penang State Government representatives and also YBs took their seats on top the stage.

The organizing chairperson was speeching and same as the YB was giving a speech too. They said almost about the green environment and encourage people to follow up the 3R- Recycle, Reuse & Reduce.

At last, they invited TYT to plant the tree and observed by the participants. Everyone was glad to see TYT was planting the new tree on top of Penang Hill. Anyway, with the help of Lion Club committees, all the process ran smooth. I think now as a Penangite here, we must plant more tree either at our home or anywhere. Love the environment, do you?
