MOUNT KINABALU

Mount Kinabalu (Malay: Gunung Kinabalu) is a prominent mountain on the island of Borneo in Southeast Asia. It is located in the east Malaysian state of Sabah and is protected as Kinabalu National Park, a World Heritage Site. Kinabalu is the tallest peak in Borneo's Crocker Range and is the fourth tallest mountain in the Malay Archipelago after Papua's Puncak Jaya, Puncak Trikora and Puncak Mandala.[1] Mount Kinabalu is also the 20th tallest mountain in the world by topographic prominence.[2]

Redang Island, locally known as Pulau Redang or just "Redang" is one of the largest islands off the east coast of Malaysia. It is one of nine islands, which form a marine park, and which offer snorkeling and diving opportunities. Access is from Merang or Kuala Terengganu on boats operated by the resorts; there is also a small airport with services operated by Berjaya Air from Singapore (Seletar Airport) and Kuala Lumpur (Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport).

Kenyir Lake is the largest man-made lake in Southeast Asia. Sharing its border with Kelantan in the west and Pahang in the south. This immense lake also serve as another gateway to Taman Negara. The lake covers 260 km² and contains 340 small islands, which were once hiltops and highlands, more than 14 waterfalls, numerous rapids and rivers. Because the lake is a reservoir, the water level can vary depending on the month. The water level is highest (and the lake consequently the most beautiful) in March and April.

MALAYSIA CULTURE

The Culture of Malaysia draws on the varied cultures of the different peoples of Malaysia. The first people to live in the area were indigenous tribes that still remain; they were followed by the Malays, who moved there from mainland Asia in ancient times. Chinese and Indian cultural influences made their mark when trade began with those countries, and increased with immigration to Malaysia. Other cultures that heavily influenced that of Malaysia include Persian, Arabic, and British. The many different ethnicities that currently exist in Malaysia have their own unique and distinctive cultural identities, with some crossover.

Layang Layang Island

No comments



Malaysia might have some 3,000 islands (estimates only) around the waters. But if in comparison with over 7.100 in the Philippines and more than 13,500 in Indonesia, it is only a small amount.
Most of the islands, there is no penhuninya and perhaps also, there will be those who want to live there, unless you have to, or ship stranded there. While many of these islands we've never heard of this name, such as Omadai Pu, Pu Patuk, Dark Pu, Pu Kulapuan, Pu Sabangkat and so on, but to the local people.

But there are also some very famous island, such as the White Stone Pu, Pu Sipadan and Ligitan while Pu Pu Pu Langkawi and Tioman. Pulau Layang-Layang (PLL) that I visit is also, one of the island is quite famous as well, especially those living in Sabah or scuba diving enthusiasts. It is located in the South China Sea, about 300 km North West of Kota Kinabalu.

Layang Layang Island, the original name was "Swallow Reef", or Reef Layang Layang. First time I get there in the 80s, and did not get a chance to land, at that time also there is no resort and the airport there.

In 2001, satelah leave services, while on vacation I had the opportunity to work for two weeks on this man-made island, while supervising the work of a company in the waters. If ever I get there by boat, which took 12 hours, now travels only two hours by plane from Kota Kinabalu ..

Because there is only one resort there, the resort has been my home for two weeks. Tidor eat and work, as well as peace of mind there's only island in the middle of the South China Sea.

Because not interested in diving berscuba (hesitate to open private parts), as well as limited time and purpose to go there to work, not be able to enjoy the natural beauty of the underwater beauty products touted it.

Tranquility during your stay, may only be stopped when it is time to pay the bill after completion of holiday accommodation
