#JOM! GO: A fruity destination. [Newspaper] (2021)
Abstract
THE imposing entrance archway of the multiple award winning Desaru Fruit Farm Agro Tourism looms large as the car banks left from the road linking Kota Tinggi and Pengerang. Sight of ample parking space available brings a smile to my face as well as a self-congratulatory pat on the back for starting the hour long journey from Johor Bahru soon after dawn broke. Together with a handful of others who had signed up for the first group tour, I board the spacious bus-like vehicle while adhering to the prevailing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Apart from the engine's rumbling sound, everyone sits in silence while peering through the windows as the vehicle slowly makes its way through the dusty dirt track snaking through the compound of the 50 hectare farm that is filled with more than 120 species of tropical fruit plants.
