Geocache Description:


A secret tunnel, believed to be centuries old has been found by contractors engaged by DBKL to repair the landslide at the slope of Bukit Nanas recently. It was believed that the tunnel was part of a labyrinth of narrow underground tunnels that the Mandailing community used as an escape passage during Klang Civil War more than a century ago. The tunnels had disappeared over time due to development in the area. The Mandailing community populated the hill, known as Bukit Gombak previously, in the mid 19th century. It is believed to have housed the Palace owned by Tuanku Raja Asal or Ja Asai at its peak. During the Klang war, the Mandailing people planted many wild pineapples on Bukit Gombak with the hope of preventing invaders (many of whom were bare footed) from attacking them, hence the name Bukit Nanas. The secret tunnels could have been used to store weapons, food and treasures in the olden days. The tunnels were also used as strategic posts and escape routes for the Mandahiling people to launch surprise attacks or escape from their enemies.

OK, now to Suparman.

Suparman received message that Lois has been kidnapped and imprisoned in a tunnel in the Bukit Nanas. He changed into his super hero costume and made his way to the entrance of the tunnel which he had located. Alas, the entrance has a grilled gate and is padlocked. Help Suparman find the keys to the padlock. The keys is hidden for obvious reason at a spot nearby. Use the hint picture given to find the hidden key.

This is a 2 stage Multi :

1) The stated coordinates will bring you to the entrance of the tunnel.

The coordinate of the cache location is at :

N03° 09.304’ (plus last 2 digits of year when Klang war happened)
