The Japanese Connection: Orchid Friend

New Orchids ----- a popular Japanese Orchids Magazine.
Issues 135,136 & 140 ----- each has an article on some major wild orchids found in
and around the District of Cameron Highlands,Malaysia.
Pictures of these species are mostly taken from my garden -----Tan's Camellia Garden.
For the record, Mr. Iio is the writer from Nagoya Orchid Society.

Mr.Iio is a Orchid Man from Japan......
He is energetic,he is kind;
He shares his knowledge, his experiences;
Asli Villagers and children know his generousity ;
and enjoy his companion......

If I really have a sincere Orchid Friend ,even from around the world,
Mr Iio is the sole winner.

I treat him with some local dishes;
Show him the very spot where rare orchid is (not are) to be found;
And the trails seclusive and well conserved.....

There is neither business deal,
Nor a bargain on orchid shape;
(he even brough me Sapporo Draft Beer,yes! all the way ...)
Just good Orchid-Exchange. ( if you know what me meant)

We are good friends;
Orchid Friend
