if any of you been to malaysia,it is a must to visit any of these island.the water are so clear and it is sure is a paradise for diver and marine lover.i watched from a programme that in perhentian island you cannot catch any fish because they wanted to keep the nature clean and undisturb.you can even swim around the fishes and they won;t be afraid of you.the view is superb and you can also enjoy the local delicacies.

If I could afford to travel, I imagine Malaysia would be such an involving place to visit. There would be so much to explore. I'd also like to see the Philippines, because the people who live there paint such a pretty picture of the beaches, and the Filipino people on mylot are extremely nice.

u see..malaysia is near to singapore,philippines,thailand and indonesia.so if u come to malaysia you can simply go to other nearby country by plane or you can simply rent any car.better if you follow a tourist bus.try to come to malaysia.i once talked to a tourist in penang..the couple told us that they are travelling through one state to another because there are so much to see and explore in malaysia.there's simply nothing to lose.!

Sorry, that was a test, because I wasn't sure if I'd logged in.
Tioman is ever so blissful. We were there a few times already and we can't get enough. It's got stunning beaches and verdant lush jungle. Its wildlife has got to be seen to be believed; both marine and terrestrial.
We spotted dozens of species of fishes and sea mammals too. We even saw a whale shark once on a scuba trip! Turtles also abound, as well as micro life. Vis can be up to 30-40 meters!
I advice visitors to take a jungle hike, as you'll practically feel like you've landed in the movie Jurassic Park. The jungle is awesome, almost surreal. Even the creatures you see, appear a throw-back to primitive times. We spotted millipedes over a foot long, as well as mouse deer and various strange monkey-type animals. The sense of isolation is almost palpable, a unique experience.
I think Tioman is an entire holiday in itself. Juara Village especially is a gem and tranquility personified.
Tioman boleh :)

Hi Amelly,
First of all, I want to thank you for becoming my referral at Triond. And congratulations on publishing your articles! How does it feel? 
I have been to Tioman, many many years ago. It's beautiful. I have never been to Perhentian Islands. I heard it is much nicer than Tioman, because it is in the open sea. You have reminded me of the time when I went to Redang. It is also a much nature-preserved area. I love Redang. YOu practically swim with the fishes. I really want to go there again. Miss that place.

Hi Amelly,
I have sent you a PM on the information. See if you can understand them. If you can't don't worry, I will help you. Just PM me again.
I have never heard of Bidong Island though. I didn't know it has some history to it. Sounds interesting!
But I do wish to go Redang again or maybe Perhentian Islands. God's gift to us. Amazing!
