I consider this place mecca for Asia diving .. non stinging jellyfish lake, manta cleaning station, wall dive, channel dive and turtle hatchery. This destination is truly the destination of Asia diving at it's best !&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Derawan being the main administrative island in the region is very wel organise in terms of it's village and also connectivity via public boat transfer; the island also have a clinic, primary and secondary school.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sangalaki island is a turtle hatchery location for a local NGO and use to be the base for Sangalaki Dive Lodge which is now ceased by the local government. Sangalaki island is the manta cleaning station and also turtle heaven.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Kakaban Island, the one of 2 unique lake that houses the non stinging jellyfish lake in the world, is a another heaven for wall dive besides the jellyfish lake.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Maratua island is a horse shoe shape island; and house a beautiful lagoon. Diving here is all about drift and current. When the tide is moving, that is when the action starts and the show begins ! Pelagics come to find food ...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;All in this destination is truly a mecca for all divers alike .. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;for more information on this exotic and unique experience contact us &lt;a href="http://www.mythasia.com/?title=contact"&gt;Myth Asia&lt;/a&gt;

Tasik Divers Manado - North Sulawesi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;North Sulawesi's unique resort for divers, families and adventure seekers&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About 30 minutes drive from the hustle &amp;amp; bustle of Manado is Tasik Ria Resort &amp;amp; Spa. Here with its peaceful and scenic palm fringed backdrop is a family owned and run resort that offers not only luxury and comfort but also a level of warmth and hospitality which in today's frantic world is such a rarity.&lt;br /&gt;With the Bunaken National Park only a 45 min boat ride away, you can be assured of some of the best diving in the world. At &lt;a href="http://www.tasikria.com/diving.html"&gt;Tasik Divers&lt;/a&gt; we can say we truly look after divers and non-divers alike!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Manado, once described in guide books as one of Indonesia's cleanest cities, has changed a lot in recent years. After a period of neglect at the end of the 90's a huge building boom has started alongside the so-called "Manado Boulevard", the city's main road. Large areas have been gained by land reclamation projects along what used to be the city's coastline. New malls, shopping centers, department stores, hotels and restaurants have opened or are still being built. Especially the area around the Mega Mall, just a few hundred meters south of the city's landmark Ritzy Hotel, has become a new center of attraction and popular meeting point. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The mall itself - apart from the usual Pizza Hut and Kentucky Fried Chicken - has some very reasonable shops and at present is one of Manado's few places where you can get a good cappuccino and other hot and cold coffee drinks.Some other parts of the city are still in a less good shape but efforts are underway to prepare Manado for the "World Ocean Conference" (2009) and for "Manado: World Tourism City 2010". Yet garbage collection doesn't always work as it should, road conditions are sometimes poor, and power &amp;amp; tab water supply is often problematic. However, compared to a couple of years ago improvements are clearly visible.In any case you are hopefully not visiting North Sulawesi with the expectation of everything being like at home. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Be a bit open-minded and adventurous and a stay in Manado with its hospitable and fun-loving population will be a pleasant experience. However, in terms of typical tourist sites it doesn't have much to offer, so if you don't have lots of time better don't consider spending too much of it in the city. Rather go for some of the many attractions in the surroundings which are described on this site.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#333399;"&gt;for more information : &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:info@mythasia.com"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#333399;"&gt;info@mythasia.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;Flight to Manado&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Silkair : Singapore - Manado ( 2 flight a day )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lion Air : Jakarta - Manado ( 2 flights a day )&lt;br /&gt;Bouraq Airlines: Jakarta -Manado ( Everyday )&lt;br /&gt;Garuda Indonesia: Jakarta - Manado ( Almost 2 flight a day )&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Garuda Indonesia: Bali - Manado ( Almost 2 flights a day )&lt;br /&gt;Batavia Air : Jakarta - Balikpapan ( kalimantan ) - Manado ( Everyday )&lt;br /&gt;Merpati Airlines : Jakarta - Manado ( Everyday )&lt;br /&gt;Mandala Airlines: Jakarta - Manado ( Everyday )&lt;br /&gt;Express Air : Jakarta - Manado ( Everyday )&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Silkair &lt;a href="http://www.silkair.com/"&gt;http://www.silkair.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lion Air &lt;a class="kanan" title="Visit Lian Airlines' Website" href="http://www.lionair.co.id/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.lionair.co.id/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bouraq Airlines &lt;a class="kanan" title="Visit Bouraq Airlines' Website" href="http://www.bouraq.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.bouraq.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Garuda Indonesia &lt;a class="kanan" title="Visit Garuda Airlines' Website" href="http://www.garuda-indonesia.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.garuda-indonesia.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Batavia Air &lt;a class="kanan" title="Visit Batavia Airlines' Website" href="http://www.batavia-air.co.id/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.batavia-air.co.id/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Merpati Airlines &lt;a class="kanan" title="Visit Merpati Airlines' Website" href="http://www.merpati.co.id/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.merpati.co.id/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mandala Airlines &lt;a class="kanan" title="Visit Mandala Airlines' Website" href="http://www.mandalaair.com/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.mandalaair.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6428658886598292262-1441807767278316933?l=mythasia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/feeds/1441807767278316933/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6428658886598292262&amp;postID=1441807767278316933' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/1441807767278316933'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/1441807767278316933'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/2010/04/tasik-ria-resort-spa-manado.html' title='Tasik Ria Resort &amp; Spa , Manado'/><author><name>kumseng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17060614772108135676</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9Eq3K_YKouQ/S9VbT9BBpLI/AAAAAAAAASo/-UY_uf-lgGo/s72-c/manado+map.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428658886598292262.post-5744958383687855638</id><published>2010-04-23T23:45:00.001+08:00</published><updated>2010-04-23T23:46:33.312+08:00</updated><title type='text'>honeymoon part 2 ...

It is known for its ability to crack coconuts with its strong pincers in order to eat the contents. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is sometimes called the robber crab because some coconut crabs are rumored to steal shiny items such as pots and silverware from houses and tents. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second photo gives you a good idea of how large these crabs are - a coconut crab is seeking food from a black trashcan. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;COCONUT CRABS&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The coconut crab is a large edible land crab related to the hermit crab, and are found in the tropical Indian and Pacific Oceans . &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;They eat coconuts for a living! How would you like to be on an island and come across a crab that is more than 3 feet from head to tail and weighs up to 40 pounds, with a pair of large pincers strong enough to open coconuts!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;They can climb trees too, but they only eat coconuts that have already fallen to the ground. Coconut crab meat has been considered a local delicacy. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;COCONUT CRABS ALSO CAN SEE AT MATAKING ISLAND&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;web : &lt;a href="http://www.mythasia.com/"&gt;http://www.mythasia.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;for more information : &lt;a href="mailto:info@mythasia.com"&gt;info@mythasia.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;

He said the 14-member Cabinet were taught scuba-diving basics over the weekend. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Nasheed was not present as he is already a certified diver. "The Cabinet will don wet suits and scuba equipment and dive to a depth of six metres, where a special meeting of the Cabinet will be convened," the spokesman, who declined to be named, said. "They will then ratify a pledge calling on other nations to slash greenhouse gas emissions ahead of the Copenhagen meeting." Cabinet members will communicate using whiteboards and hand signals. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Maldivian archipelago, located south west of Sri Lanka, is on the front line of climate change and has become a vocal campaigner in the battle to halt rising sea levels. In 2007, the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warned that a rise in sea levels of 18 to 59 centimetres by 2100 would be enough to make the Maldives virtually uninhabitable. More than 80 percent of the country's land, composed of coral islands scattered some 850 kilometres across the equator, is less than one metre above mean sea level. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The danger for the Maldives is so acute that Nasheed has raised the possibility of buying a new "homeland" in Australia, India or Sri Lanka for the nation's 330,000 citizens. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6428658886598292262-152183103573889744?l=mythasia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/feeds/152183103573889744/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6428658886598292262&amp;postID=152183103573889744' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/152183103573889744'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/152183103573889744'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/2009/10/asia-pacific-news-maldivian-ministers.html' title='Asia Pacific News - Maldivian ministers train for underwater Cabinet meeting'/><author><name>kumseng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17060614772108135676</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9Eq3K_YKouQ/SsqrlICwpmI/AAAAAAAAARo/K1IdyNoUPSE/s72-c/maltive.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428658886598292262.post-1242192092056703576</id><published>2009-10-02T15:46:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2009-10-06T10:36:23.245+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ADVENTURE ASIA SHOW DIVING SCUBA'/><title type='text'>ADVENTURE SHOW ASIA 2009 9/10-11/10/2009</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9Eq3K_YKouQ/SsWwLoPALKI/AAAAAAAAARg/eTCK-XgLBPo/s1600-h/image.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5387906243044060322" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9Eq3K_YKouQ/SsWwLoPALKI/AAAAAAAAARg/eTCK-XgLBPo/s400/image.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;WE welcome you to the Asia Adventure Show 2009 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;venue : mid-vally exhibition centre &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;date : 9/10/2009-11/10/2009&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;MYTH ASIA booth : 1033&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;MYTH ASIA WILL PATICIPANT IN ASIA ADVENTURE SHOW 2009&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Asia is truly the land of adventure.

"&gt;On this vessel, sharks are stripped of their fins, which are sold to Asian markets. The demand for shark-fin soup is one factor in the decline of the shark population in the Mediterranean Sea.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;So dangerous that in the past two centuries, the shark population there has plummeted by more than 97 percent, according to a study by the graduate student, two colleagues at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia and an Italian researcher.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;They based their conclusion on evidence scoured from an unusually wide variety of records, including documents drawn from universities and archives, from fish markets and recreational fishing clubs, and from local accounts of shark sightings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;The paper, co-authored with the late Dalhousie marine biologist Ransom A. Myers and others, is only the latest evidence that some of the oceans' most feared predators are themselves in dire danger.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Another team of scientists has shown in recent months that the peril is global, concluding that all but two of 21 species of open-ocean sharks and their cousins, the rays, are facing the risk of extinction. Another found that the decline of sharks at the top of the food chain is disrupting marine ecosystems around the globe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;“Sharks are just one part of the ocean's web of life,” said Margaret Bowman, who directs the nonprofit Lenfest Ocean Program, which helped fund all three studies. “But these studies show if you pull out that one thread, the whole web suffers.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="parMarker"&gt;&lt;img src="http://ads.signonsandiego.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_lx.ads/www.uniontrib.com/uniontrib/news_1c03sharks.html/L27/1162198039/x32/OasDefault/aranet_300_ROS_0504-080309/aranet_300_ROS_0504-080309.html/66413247436b6b2b674e73414151772b?_RM_EMPTY_&amp;amp;" width="2" height="2" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The shark researchers – from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United States and several European countries – are engaged in a huge detective project, much of it inspired by Myers, who pioneered the first global shark assessment before his death in late 2006.&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Culling both unconventional and traditional sources such as fishing data, museum records and scientific studies, they are tracking not only how drastically sharks' numbers have dropped in recent decades but also how their disappearance is transforming the marine world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Several factors help explain why the shark population has declined in the Mediterranean, Ferretti said in a telephone interview from his native Italy. Fishing vessels are targeting them to meet the Asian demand for shark-fin soup, while simultaneously trying to compensate for the fact that they have depleted other fisheries.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;“Some fishers have decided to switch to sharks because they cannot make up their product with bony fish,” he said, noting that the presence of so many countries bordering the Mediterranean has contributed to the fishing pressure there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;“At these levels, these sharks can be considered functionally extinct, meaning that they cannot perform their role of top predators in the Mediterranean marine ecosystems anymore,” he said. Ferretti and his colleagues published their findings in the journal &lt;i&gt;Conservation Biology.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;Two other papers published this spring suggest that once these predators disappear, the species they prey on not only increase in numbers but also behave differently once they are in less danger of being eaten.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;In Prince William Sound, Alaska, Pacific sleeper sharks keep harbor seals from eating too many walleye pollock, wrote Dalhousie marine biology professor Boris Worm, the lead author of a recent paper in &lt;i&gt;Trends in Ecology and Evolution, &lt;/i&gt;in an e-mail. Depleting the sleeper sharks in turn hurts the pollock population.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;“We now understand that both on land and in the sea, large predators play important roles in regulating both the total number and the behavior of their prey,” Worm wrote. “Unchecked by their predators, some of these prey species can wreak havoc on ecosystems – this is one important reason to keep predators around in sufficient numbers.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Another team of researchers, headed by Nicholas Dulvy, a biology professor at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, found that in the open ocean, sharks that used to be an inadvertent bycatch for vessels seeking tuna and swordfish are increasingly being targeted for their meat and fins.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;The group, which belongs to the World Conservation Union's Shark Specialist Group, surveyed 21 pelagic shark and ray species, and determined that only pelagic stingrays and salmon sharks do not face a risk of extinction. Others, such as thresher, ocean whitetip and shortfin mako sharks, are all vulnerable, they wrote.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Sonja Fordham, a co-author of their paper in the journal &lt;i&gt;Aquatic Conservation Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, &lt;/i&gt;said pelagic sharks, which regularly cross vast oceans, face heightened pressures because there are no international catch limits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;“Even though these are wide-ranging and fast-moving sharks, they are at risk,” Fordham said in a phone interview from Brussels, Belgium, where she advocates for tighter European shark-fishing regulations as the shark conservation program director for the advocacy group Ocean Conservancy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Bowman said she and other advocates hope fishery managers will “figure out how to control fishing to prevent further declines” of sharks, and policymakers are responding. On June 19, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced it would ban the removal of shark fins at sea in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico by late July and cut the permitted catch of sandbar and porbeagle sharks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;A week earlier, the House Natural Resources Committee advanced legislation that would institute the “fins attached” requirement nationwide. International fishery managers will debate this fall the idea of imposing worldwide shark catch limits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Enric Cortes, a scientist at NOAA's Fisheries Service who conducts shark-population assessments along the East Coast, emphasized that scientists are still learning about the role sharks play in ecosystems. They may dominate more isolated regions, but they don't necessarily shape every marine environment they inhabit: “The jury is still out on that.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px; "&gt;Read the details from link&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-top: 13px;

This event will coincide with the well established annual Mataking Reef Day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The purpose of the Reef Check is to monitor our reefs and continue the data base of the marine life in predetermined areas of our famous house reef. The gathered information will be submitted to Reef Check Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur for world wide publication and future reference data.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We invite divers who have an interest in marine life to join us. Divers do not need to be marine biologists! Anyone can join! It will be a fun weekend of diving with a purpose. The event will be very educational.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time we will be conducting courses in Fish Identification and Eco Diver training. These courses are an optional extra.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Certain areas of our famous house reef will be marked with tape as a baseline. Divers in buddy pairs with good buoyancy equipped with slates and measuring tapes will be given separate tasks such as identifying and counting fish species, measuring corals, identifying little critters, etc. Photos will be taken for future reference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you care about our environment and are keen to help preserve our natural heritage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify" style="font-size: 12px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); "&gt;For more information : &lt;a href="http://www.mythasia.com/eadvs/1237960197/index.html"&gt;Reef Day&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="680"&gt;&lt;tbody bgcolor="#FFFFFF"&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td align="center" background="http://www.mythasia.com/eadvs/rpbg.jpg"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6428658886598292262-5087827650530798072?l=mythasia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/feeds/5087827650530798072/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6428658886598292262&amp;postID=5087827650530798072' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/5087827650530798072'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/5087827650530798072'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/2009/04/mataking-reef-day-and-reef-check.html' title=''/><author><name>Zahir</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09901096203565140447</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='31' height='21' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_PbBT_rekn2A/SHeCh0qEiWI/AAAAAAAAAAM/r0anLD2eU7M/S220/IMG_0808.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428658886598292262.post-3454394675825413439</id><published>2009-03-31T01:29:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2009-03-31T01:52:20.989+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='DEEP Indonesia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lembeh Hills Resort'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='diving'/><title type='text'>DEEP Indonesia 2009</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Hello everybody,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hope that you have had a great weekend ... &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For those of you who have not the chance to be in Jakarta, this year's DEEP is getting DEEPER, kudos to organizer xnet who had done an excellent job !&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Myth Asia was invited as a buyer to the show hosted by Indonesia Tourism Board and it has opens up opportunity for us to be among the best in the industry.

诗巴丹岛 　　&lt;br /&gt;峭壁潜点 海龟同乐&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; 　&lt;br /&gt;　&lt;br /&gt;位于马来西亚婆罗洲的诗巴丹（Sipadan）岛，是海底陆块隆起与火山运动所形成的岛屿，状似蘑菇的柱状小岛矗立水中，深度可达上千公尺。这里远离尘嚣，海水又清又透，无论深海浅海，都可以清楚观察海底世界，因此荣登世界5大峭壁潜水胜地之首。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;诗巴丹以海龟众多闻名，只要潜到海中，就很有机会与牠们相遇。虽然当地人把海中生物活动的区域约略画分出海龟洞、珊瑚花园、梭鱼坪、白鲨之路等，但是不同时刻潜入不同区域，都可能会有意外惊喜。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;帛琉 　　&lt;br /&gt;生态多元与水母共游&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;位于菲律宾以东、关岛西南方的帛琉（Palau），是太平洋上大约340个小岛所组成的群岛。岛上拥有全球仅见的无毒水母湖（Jellyfish 　　Lake），可爱的水母多如繁星，大部分呈淡橘色，就在身边游来游去。此外，群岛上有一处蓝洞（Blue 　　Hole），因为长期受到海水和雨水等天然力的侵蚀，形成4个海洞，是鲨鱼、大魟鱼、海龟等海底生物的最佳藏身处，潜身其间，保证大开眼界。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a title="埃及" href="http://www.17u.com/destination/city_2804.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;埃及&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;达哈 　　&lt;br /&gt;红海海域 度假天堂 　&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;在许多潜水爱好者的心目中，亚非两大洲交界处的红海（Red 　　Sea）是毕生一定要潜进去瞧一瞧的「圣地」；而位于埃及东侧西奈半岛（Sinai 　　Peninsula）上的达哈（Dahab），便是前往「朝圣」的最佳选择。达哈距离开罗（Cairo）大约560公里，车程要8到9小时，因为偏远而充满原始的淳朴之美；全年&lt;a title="日照" href="http://www.17u.com/destination/city_293.html" target="_blank"&gt;日照&lt;/a&gt;充足、海水能见度高，又有绵延的金黄沙滩，是欧洲人相当钟爱的度假天堂。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;东非塞席尔 　　&lt;br /&gt;群岛国海底世外桃源 　　&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;塞席尔（Seychelles）在哪里？在东非洲印度洋上、马达加斯加岛（Madagascar）北方1000多公里处，是个由100多个小岛所组成的独立国家。塞席尔周边的海域，拥有世界上最大片的珊瑚礁，潜藏着900多种鱼类、100余种贝类，无疑是酷爱潜水的人们衷心向往的天堂。如果你有兴趣追寻鲨鱼的芳踪，塞席尔最大的马黑岛（Mahe）北侧外海有一处鲨鱼海岸（Shark 　　Bank），每年2到11月鲨鱼特别活跃，应该不会让你失望。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;印度尼西亚科摩多 　　&lt;br /&gt;寒暖流交会 鱼群繁多&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;位在印度尼西亚最知名度假胜地峇里岛东方200海里外的科摩多岛（Komodo），拥有壮丽的海底景观，各种色彩鲜艳的软硬珊瑚、热带鱼、鲸豚等海底生态丰富；科摩多一带海域由于为水流交会处，北来的暖流带来鲔鱼、鲨鱼等大型鱼群，南来的冷流则带进翻车鱼、魔鬼鱼、甚至罕见的海苹果（Sea 　　Apple）等小型鱼群，让这里的海世界更显得与众不同而多采多姿。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;印度尼西亚北苏拉威西 　　&lt;br /&gt;海水澄净 能见度高 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;位于印度尼西亚苏拉威西岛（Sulawesi）东北方的北苏拉威西省（North 　　Sulawesi），拥有未受污染的澄净海洋，海水能见度深达30到40公尺；终年维持在摄氏28度左右的水温，孕育了丰富的珊瑚生态，难怪印度尼西亚政府一口气在这里规划了3个国家海洋公园。北苏拉威西的潜点与浮潜点多不胜数，并且拥有众多洁白的沙滩，加上对外交通不便，民风非常淳朴，让人完全沉醉在反璞归真的度假氛围中。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;台湾&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a title="绿岛" href="http://www.17u.com/destination/scenery_8005.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;绿岛&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt; 　　&lt;br /&gt;宝岛之珠 世界有名 　&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;虽然和许多地方比较起来，咱们的绿岛并不那么遥不可及，但它丰富的海底世界可是一点都不逊色，是国际知名度相当高的潜水好所在。位于台东外海的绿岛，由火成岩与珊瑚礁岩所组成，藏在海面下的珊瑚礁岩于是成为热带鱼的最佳藏身地。绿岛由于孤悬海上，水质至今得以维持一定的澄净度；我们在发展观光的同时必须小心不破坏，好让这项骄傲的自然资源永远长在。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;马尔地夫 　　&lt;br /&gt;印度洋珍珠 湛蓝璀璨 　　&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;马尔地夫位于南亚的印度洋上，散落成1000多个岛屿，被喻为「印度洋上的珍珠」，曾经被知名的潜水杂志《Cyber 　　Diver》票选为「全球最佳潜水地」之一。除了首都所在的马列（Male）岛外，每个岛都必须依赖快艇才能到达，所以渺无人烟的岛屿多不胜数，彷佛随时都可以跳进海里，和湛蓝海底的鱼群共舞。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;菲律宾薄荷岛 　　&lt;br /&gt;生态多元 海陆皆美 　&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;名字颇可爱的薄荷岛（Bohol），是菲律宾群岛中相当偏远的一座小岛，必须先在中部大城宿雾（Cebu）转乘船才能抵达；但是岛上奇特的风光，保证让你不虚此行。薄荷岛除了干净不受污染的水域外，更特别的是形貌奇特的巧克力山（Chcolate 　　Hills），圆锥形的石灰岩小丘绵延成一片，令人大开眼界。 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;菲律宾巴拉望 　　&lt;br /&gt;潜水秘境 邂逅海牛&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; 　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;菲律宾群岛西侧的巴拉望（Palawan）一带温暖的水域，孕育了丰富的热带鱼群、海底珊瑚礁群，及罕见的海牛，海洋资源丰富。由于位置偏僻、交通不便，硬件发展难免有些落后；但也因此，环境保留得十分原始，成为优良的潜水秘境。巴拉望除瑰丽的海底世界、洁净的沙滩外，地下钟乳石洞窟地形也很发达。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(苹果日报)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6428658886598292262-3699144883796354622?l=mythasia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/feeds/3699144883796354622/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6428658886598292262&amp;postID=3699144883796354622' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/3699144883796354622'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/3699144883796354622'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/2009/03/blog-post.html' title='世界十大潜水胜地'/><author><name>kumseng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17060614772108135676</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428658886598292262.post-3389788115202298040</id><published>2009-03-14T00:41:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2009-03-14T01:09:20.345+08:00</updated><title type='text'>when the demand stops the supply stops ... please !</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_PbBT_rekn2A/SbqSz6k70DI/AAAAAAAAAH0/vubZR37H6SA/s1600-h/IMG_1512.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Kids Scuba Camp 30/11/2008-1/12/008</title><content type='html'>Borneo Divers and its subsidiary Borneo Divers Training Institute, have taken another step forward in bringing in a new product which focuses on family ties `Kids Scuba Camp’. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This program will also promote Kota Kinabalu and Sabah as an ideal family diving destination particularly Tunku Abdul Rahman Park.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;65 children and parents from Selangor together with 19 press and TV crews have taken part in the Kids Scuba Camp that will be held on the 30th November and 1st of December 2008  in Mamutik Island in the Tunku Abdul Rahman Park off Kota Kinabalu.  The objective of this program is to promote family unity, responsibility and diving education.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These families will go through series of fun filled activities which will involve scuba diving for children from 8 years to 12 years old in the pristine shallow water  Mamutik Island could offer and Boat Diving with parents for Certified Jr. Open Water Diver.  Families will also have the opportunity to try out the SeaDoo Divers Propulsion Vehicle (DPV) during the 2 days program.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SeaDoo Divers Propulsion vehicle (DPV) is an easy light weight battery operated machine ( close to soundless)  that is safe and easy to operate and it is a practical piece of equipment which can be used for snorkelling or diving. Introduction course as well as certification program are available and can only be obtained through only our subsidiary Borneo Divers Training Institute. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apart from scuba diving, children and parents will jointly participate in local games such as “Main Gala” and “Main Kingking”.  These games also give an insight on the traditional games of thus promoting cultural Sabah.  Also organised are quizzes based on Marine Life and Diving Theory where winners will win exciting prizes such as Dive Watches, Scuba Gears and Dive Packages.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Value of this Kids Scuba Camp program is to instil the importance of reef protection through diving education.  Programs such as this will give birth to a new generation of young divers who are caring and responsible. These generations of divers will become the future educators of our aquatic realm to help overcome the degradation of our reefs and ocean environment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you …. Tourism Malaysia, Sabah Tourism Board, Sabah Parks, Sutera Harbour Golf and Country Club, Le Meridian Hotel and the many sponsors in this program.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Special thank to En.

Infact the shark may mistaken the toe or feet as food/meat; anyone there may be a 'victim' later on. Have anyone think of that ? And once it has beaten, the actions will be to kill the shark who did it ! But who in the first place instill the act and encourage the act ?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Feeding any fishes be it shark, moray eel or damsel or animal on land is against the cycle of natural habitant. Animals should find their own food rather then be fed upon. Animals should not depends on feeding they should be out there 'hunting' for their food. Fishes don't survive eating bread or snacks like prawn crackers or cheezels; FISH live on planktons and algaes. HUMAN, you and me, eats bread and snacks ! Try imagine if we eat the plankton and algaes, how can our stomach take the 'food' ??&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A lot of snokelers are ignorant and unaware of such however local operators should be more careful and take up the responsibility to care for their very own livelihood. If the fishes and environment are destroy due to these effects, their bread and butter will be affected directly. For short term gain of making  'hu ha' for snorkelers who will leave the site after a day trip, the local operator do not realise that their very own act will affect their future. We have to be responsible for our future so that our children and generations to come will get to see what is Nemo or how does a shark looks like !&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;By feeding these fishes, they lose their natural hunting instinct and will not be able to survive on their own. If you keep feeding your child with food, how are they going to survive the outside world ?? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Sustainability &lt;/span&gt;and &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;responsible&lt;/span&gt; tourism should be practice by every operator who are dealing with environment / nature tourism ! In actual fact it should be for all, everyone of us who are a part of this planet we need to care for the 'home' we live on.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Have you ever feed the fishes in the marine park before ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6428658886598292262-8816227934455594332?l=mythasia.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='video/mp4' href='http://www.blogger.com/video-play.mp4?contentId=bfdfc586003265da&amp;type=video%2Fmp4' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/feeds/8816227934455594332/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6428658886598292262&amp;postID=8816227934455594332' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/8816227934455594332'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6428658886598292262/posts/default/8816227934455594332'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mythasia.blogspot.com/2008/11/shark-feeding-in-payar-island.html' title='Shark feeding in Payar Island'/><author><name>MythAsia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15240998484915304773</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428658886598292262.post-5403266985887631306</id><published>2008-11-26T11:57:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2008-11-26T11:58:27.434+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Good Tips for You!</title><content type='html'>&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="http://divingsafety.wordpress.com/2007/06/05/6/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to The Underwater Environment"&gt;The Underwater Environment&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="entry"&gt;        &lt;div class="snap_preview"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;A person who is physically fit may not be necessary fit to dive.
