Coffee Table Book....1






Ru Ramping








That was unofficial name of my village, given by the elders since 1910s . According to the folklore the name Ru Ramping originated from one particular pine tree which was slim in the middle, unlike the rest who were big and strong thus they became wind cheater that protect the beach.
