DZs in Malaysia

Apologies for the slight thread drift, but while on the subject of DZs in the Far East, are there any other ancient Ppruners watching who recall some of the more hairy DZs in Malaysia? I remember Yankee Three Bar among others. It was a bit hairy, needing the throttles on the Hastings to be brought right back to get down into the DZ amongst the trees. Our engineer, Mel P*****n, would look out of his window, see the trees alongside, and in spite of himself push the throttles open. The result was a battle for the power between him and the captain.
