In order to realize this idea, Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong immediately looked through the map hoping to find a suitable location near Kuala Lumpur where he could build a resort. Finally, Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong saw the ideal spot at Mount Uluga, a 1,800-meter high mountain 58 kilometers away from Kuala Lumpur. Thus began the process of Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong transforming a remote mountainous area filled with virgin tropical rainforest into a resort.
