Super Bad News

Sedang wa ejas-ejas kontrak PAM 2006 (without quantities) utk projek Telok Panglima Garang wa ini, tetibe henpon SE wa berbunyik, ringkas, maknenye tu sistem pesanan ringkas.

Oh awek mane lak yg mesej wa nih, sambil tangan kanan pantas mencapai henpon yg agak2 suku jahanam dah tuh. Namun, mesej yg diterima memeranjatkan beliau (tetibe bertukar jadi pandangan pihak ketiga pulok).

"Pls read star paper today...most snorkeling n dive sites includg p tenggol closed due to coral bleaching" - Mama

Ah. Wa terus bukak star online. Wa godek-godek dan terjumpelah kisah yg wa harap cuma gurauan semata-mata oleh penulis sokabar tersebut.

Top dive spots closed due to coral bleaching

ALOR SETAR: Several dive sites at two of the top diving destinations in the world — the Pulau Tioman marine park in Pahang and Pulau Redang marine park in Terengganu — are temporarily off-limits to divers and snorkellers until end-October.

They are among three marine parks — the other being Pulau Payar in Kedah — which are affected by coral bleaching, a phenomenon caused by global warming that has increased sea water temperature by 2°C to between 28°C and 29°C.

Marine Park Department director-general Abd Jamal Mydin said the affected dive sites in Terengganu were Teluk Dalam, Tanjung Tukas Darat, Tanjung Tukas Laut, Teluk Air Tawar, Pulau Tenggol and Teluk Bakau; and in Pahang they were Pulau Chebeh and Batu Malang.

In Kedah the affected sites are Teluk Wangi, Pantai Damai and Coral Garden.

Three islands in the vicinity of the Tioman marine park that have been temporarily closed are Pulau Regis, Pulau Soyak and Pulau Tumok in Pahang.

“The closure means that no diving and snorkelling activities will be allowed at the sites.
