Hey, that's rafflesiana in the 1st, 2nd and 4th picture? Is this area in the southern part of Peninsula or around Wilayah?

David,
You're right about the Raff and the southern part of the Peninsular. I didn't have any luck in searching for Raff around Wilayah area.

Marvin1997,
Actually it was a piece of land next to the plantation. I think they burn it prevent the wild boar from nesting there.
