The outcry against the destruction of the reef between the old pier and Barracuda Point at Sipadan by a barge laden with sand, gravel, construction equipment has continued to grownin momentum, with members of the Malaysia Diving Community forum calling for a boycott of Borneo Divers over a self-centered statement made by one of its directors.
The question remains as NOT TO WHY was the barge there, but why was construction of facilities been mooted for the paradise island after the painstaking step of chasing away resort operators off the island a few years back? The Sabah state government has a lot of explaining to do.
As for Clement Lee of Borneo Divers’ statement that “only a small percentage of the reef was destroyed and that the reef will be back to normal” for divers to visit, I hope he will commence his reefcheck duty now. In 200 years time, I’ll come and visit him and the rejuvenated reef.
The wanker. Borneo Divers should kick Clement Lee out and employ Clemency instead.
