They are all nature lovers and I'm sure they would be happy to hear such project especially volunteers/experts are now available here. They are currently helping out some of the botanical gardens such as FRIM in Kepong and Rimba Ilmu in University of Malaya. (So, David can take care of the FRIM and Tarence incharge of the Rimba Ilmu ) They also have The MNS-BOH Nature Study Centre in Cameron, which would be the perfect place for highlanders . I think they also can help in sourcing fund if you need to setup a cp garden.

I've been to the Rimba Ilmu ( http://rimba.um.edu.my ) in UM many years back. There are green houses for rare plants too (not that rare for us lah especially come to nepenthes because I only saw ampullaria and rafflesiana, so it is up to us to put in more exotic species).

Tarence, you can contact Ms. Angela Hijjas (ajh@pd.jaring.my), one of the commitee members from MNS. She is a very friendly lady, who was my tour guide in Rimba Ilmu. (She is also an expert in orchid, with lots of exotic orchids in her house!!!). You can be her co-speaker for cps next time.

Everyone : our aim is not so much to relocate neps from their natural surroundings but more to contribute excess plantlets which the forum members might have from time to time as a result of some generous folks here. hopefully that`s clear.
