JamesWtc Says: Some forest has been destroyed for other development or plantation.Stop by the road to see this wide plain is very relaxing.
JamesWtc Says: Occasionally, but quite often you can find this kind of modern building out of nowhere on the of roads to other town. You can find no other housing surround with it standing by the road side alone.
Some popular view along the way
JamesWtc Says: You can find this kind of house along the way out of city. Athough it looks old and kinda rural, it has access to basic electricity and clean water supply.
JamesWtc Says: Drives just a few kilometres out of town centre, you can find some old wooden houses located far from each other. They are mainly farmers planting pepper, cocoa, and some other fruits.

A town of perhaps 30 000 people. Centre of an agricultural, mostly pepper-growing area. Mostly Chinese traders in town, and the Fuzhou people of MinChiang and Gutian backgrounds are the farmers...
