Matang, Perak

Last week I was in Taiping my hometown. While I was there I drop by Matang a place famous for birds watching. A place for watching migratory birds from  North Asia they migrate during winter and now it is about time for them to leave. Matang also know as Port weld the 1st rail station in Malaya. It is located about 15 km from Taiping. Due to its muddy shores and huge mangrove trees coverage this place attracted lots of birds that includes A.Fuchiphangus. ( Swiftlets). It is one of the largest mangrove forest reserves in the country.

Matang is also famous for Charcoal making. There are still doing it now but many had closed down as the demand of Charcoal has declined

Beautiful Fishing Village

If you do swiftlet farming here you won't be wrong. Food sources are plenty for the birds but bear in mind there are controlled by the local Big brothers. If you are not from here then it is......xx As this place is famous for few notorious big times......."TK"

 Every time  I visit here I could see many new big Bhs, there are getting more and more Swiftlet farms here. Competition is getting tougher. Only the fittest would survive.   

Beautiful New Bh

Drying sea products

Turning a two storey shop into three storey. It is always flexible and easy in rural area. I am loving it.

 Bhs are next to each other. Well given the natural geographical landscape and its natural resources, no worries about too many Bhs. They only worry is how bad you build and design the Bh.

Many of the Bhs here are using Love potion, their harvests per month would make your eyes popped out when you see it.

Enjoy the Pictures.

Good Swiftlet farming!
