This is not a picture of nice corals nor that of beautiful scenery. It is a sad sight to behold to see that once again, the rich and powerful use the name of development to further fill their coffers while God's creation suffers the slow, suffocating death.
After the hue & cry has died down, the barges and machinery to build the Marina at Tioman commenced its invasion and started its piling work. Can you believe they are doing piling in the sea at a "designated marine park"? Politicians must have written their own dictionary and twisted the definition to something else. One would think that the noise on land from the piling is bad enough but can you imagine the sound being carried underwater? Sound waves would be shock waves from that thing hammering down. Seems like putting "nails into the coffin" for the surrounding marine life.
Why can't these people leave well alone??
