Spanning the Johor Pahang state border, the national park is a crucial forest habitat for animals such as the Malayan Tiger, Malayan Tapir and Asian Elephant. Composed in varying energetic strokes of rich hues of blue, green, and red, the artist expresses the effect of wind in the glimmering forest. It is a hallmark of the veteran artist painting for 60 years that he is still working on his canvas.
