We have a stretch of beach here on the east coast at Terengganu state where greenback turtles do that once a year. It's a tourist attraction and the eggs are collected by authorised personnel for the hatchery. I have yet to experience this beauty of nature though.<BR/><BR/>KS, I see your point. But if you boycott, Malaysia will be so short of one vote and that could be the tie-breaker. Eh?<BR/><BR/>Hi Joe, such things do happen. Those divers must have been so overwhelmed by its beauty and probably the Tourism Board folks have not been there to know that the place warrants some recognition.HappySurferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01444290549991093661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9814112.post-54755750053693337542009-02-24T17:49:00.000+08:002009-02-24T17:49:00.000+08:00Very odd to hear it was those divers who had nomin...Very odd to hear it was those divers who had nominated the island for the listing instead of the Tourism Board!JOEPSChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07822845813011316611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9814112.post-42361324561023936512009-02-24T17:17:00.000+08:002009-02-24T17:17:00.000+08:00Happysurfer,That's the point.

The last picture shows two uniformed men on duty.<BR/><BR/>JL, yep, Sipadan isn't that far from JB. In fact, it isn't far from anywhere else in the world with transportation so readily available these days.<BR/><BR/>KS, I should think it only makes sense for the country's citizens to vote for its own heritage site. Malaysians would do the same, I hope.<BR/><BR/>With or without the listing, tourists (divers) will still flock to Sipadan for the diving experience afterall it's reputed to be one of the world's top diving sites. And, Malaysia sure could use the tourist dollars. In fact, Malaysians should spend their money at home instead of spending it overseas. *hint*HappySurferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01444290549991093661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9814112.post-38830051973877577892009-02-23T08:53:00.000+08:002009-02-23T08:53:00.000+08:00I don't trust this kind of online voting.
