Many incidents have happened in the past two and a half years that draw much attention to this belt of hills to Bukit Tabur.

How picturesque is Bukit Tabur, in pictures and how it has become known due to publicity by words of mouth, public reportings in newspaper and TV, as well as blogs and forums.

In 2007, there was some full pages reporting in some local dailies, on this crystal hills, called Bukit Tabur, much was written on its beauty but negligeble on the danger of it.

Crowds of trekkers come here to enjoy themselves, regulars and non regulars, and the traffic we can say is increasing in the past two and half years.

In the last 6 months this article is written, at least 3 serious falls off the cliff had happened.

Octber, 2008 : a college girl

January 2009 : a malay lady news reporter, injured herself and has to be carried down by rescue team.

It is indeed challenging job doing rescue operation and evacuation work when accident happened.
