Sign-ups *are only confirmed after contacting us and joining the WA group! \**** Gunung Ledang, or commonly known as Mount Ophir (1,276m) is the highest mountain in Johor and almost the most climbed mountain there. This is a good step-up hike for those who are looking to progress to tougher hikes after Gunung Datuk or are training or preparing for Kinabalu/Nepal etc. **Who is this for?** It serves as a good training or progressive hike for those who wish to do more hiking. Most do it as training for other treks, like Kinabalu, or Nepal. **How tough is it/How fit do I have to be?** It is twice as long as Gunung Datuk. The trek is around 4-5h up and 3-4h down, making it a total of 9h. The total elevation is around 1,000m up and down. It can be quite tiring on your legs. It is generally tropical forest trail, with some rope portions, ladders and rock faces. It can be quite fun to go through the different terrain with the need to use your hands at some points. However, if you have done Gunung Datuk before, the terrain is not that much of a surprise. The tough part is only the duration. This is good for people who have some level of fitness, if not it will be fun for those who are first time in Malaysia! **What happens if I am slow?** There is a 1 guide to 7 hikers ratio. There is also a cut-off timing to the summit, if you fail to make it you will have to turn back! So far everyone I've brought made it =). Do note if you descent past a certain time, there is a penalty. How many pax for the trip to happen? Minimum **12 pax** to start the trip! Once confirmed, a Whatsapp group will be set up. **Estimated Itinerary:** (Saturday) \~12.30 am : Meet @ Marsiling MRT 1.30 – 4am : Transport to Gunung Ledang via Tangkak 5.00 am : Breakfast at Tangkak 6.30am : Tangkak – Gunung Ledang National Park 7.00 am : Arrival @ National Park counter – Registration & Tagging items (checking in) 8.00 am : Start climbing to the top 12.00 pm : Arrive at the peak (safety time at the peak until 2.00 pm) 1.00 pm : Descend back to the base 4.30 pm : Arrive at the park, clear the items and wash up. 5.00 pm : Leave. 5.00 pm – 8.30pm : Dinner at Tangkak and head to Singapore/Dinner (own expense) at JB ***Itinerary is subject to changes based on conditions and group speed and trek leader's discretion*** **\*You may leave your non-hiking items on the bus\*** Price: $165 per pax for all other nationalities Malaysian: $150 Price includes: 2-ways Transport Mountain Guide by the National Park All associated Park Permits/ Fees Mountain Insurance by the Park LMT Trek Leader LMT Info-Kit Price excludes: All Personal expenses/Meals Visa Application (if any) Personal Travel Insurance Other personal expenses/Late Fee for Descent This event is organized by LITTLE MONSTERS TRAVEL PTE LTD Travel Agent Licence No: 03117 Contact : +65 88842635 Email: info@littlemonsterstravel.net Some additional questions: 1. How long is the ride to Mount Ophir A: It takes only around 3-4h from Singapore 2. The journey to Ophir only takes 3 hours, why do we set off so early? A: This is so that we can save money on accommodation/driver cost/taxi to MRT station. This also means there is a lack of sleep, so try to sleep in the vehicle! Bring a travel pillow! 3. Are there shower or toilet facilities at the park? A: Yes there are but basic. Expect using a hose/bucket. Please bring a change of clothes and shower when you are down from Ophir. No smelly people in the vehicle! 4. What do I have to look out for? A: There are mosquitoes and leeches sometimes, depends on the weather. 5. Where is dinner? We would have dinner in Tangkak at a cheap and nice chinese restaurant, if there are dietary concerns there are other options around the area also.

**For ages 13 and above.** Systema is a Russian Martial Art founded by the late Colonel Mikhail Ryabko and Vladimir Vasiliev. Systema was designed to develop individuals in a combative style which upholds the intrinsic value of all human life. This is why it is non-destructive – even of one’s enemies. Through the use of simple exercises, breathing techniques and massage work, Systema helps you to build a strong mind and body. Here is what you can expect: **Warm ups** Class begins with warming up each of the systems of the body – from the breathing, muscular and nervous system, each component needs to be properly engaged. **Thematic studies** Fetching from a huge pool of drills and sometimes even crafting specialized ones, our instructors format a logical progression of the concept being shared. Depending on the ability of the class, the drills are modified to be at the optimal level for learning, with suitable modifications given to students based on their individual performance. **Application of concepts** After the thematic studies, some time is given for the students to apply the training – the intensity is decided upon by the students under the supervision of the instructor. At times, the instructor will request for the students to push themselves, while at other times they are there to taper in the sparring to a productive level. **Cool downs** The cooldowns are usually done in a way both the help the class recover from the higher intensity application section as well as to revisit the concepts again in a calmer manner. This helps to ensure everyone is reminded of the key points. Sometimes we do a little massage. **Training circles** At the end of every training session, we circle up to share a few words about the training. This tradition was handed to us from our founders and is an integral part of our training. ### **Address** Lor 23 Geylang, #03-05 37, Singapore 388371 ### **Schedule** Saturdays 10AM - 12PM ### **Booking Information** * Please contact **98225900** to find out how to book this class. * The instructor will reach out to you once you've booked the class.

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

In this local meeting, you will discover knowledge that you can use to get over the past.
