Reef Check Malaysia hits the news

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

We are happy to see that our diving surveys are playing a part in raising awareness to the dangers that our Malaysian reefs are facing! The New Strait Times recently ran a double-page article on the work Reef Check Malaysia has carried out, including a status report on our work on the Perhentians. The article highlighted hastily planned development and poor waste disposal as playing a part in impacting coral ecosystems. It also stressed the need for continuing monitoring… so now is the time to come to the islands and complete a Reef Check diving survey with Watercolours!

Congratulations Dave & Lynne

Sunday, February 17th, 2008

Dave and Lynne were my first Open Water students of 2008. They were an absolute pleasure to teach. We would like to wish them congratulations on becoming certified divers… and of course even bigger congratulations on their marriage!!! Well done guys, you really worked hard to get your PADI course completed and we wish you many more years of happy diving…
