My first Redang trip

Last few days, I followed company event to Redang (23th - 26th September 2010).

This event is name: Rainforest to Reef, which collaboration with Reef Check Malaysia (RCM). Here is the explanation which copy from my company bulletin :P

"The Rainforest to Reef (R2R) project was selected as one of the 11 key programmes under the Alstom Foundation umbrella in 2008. Alstom Foundation pledged RM150,000 to this 3 year programme which is now well into its 2nd year. R2R remains committed to its main objective of educating children on 3 east coast islands on the significance of an interconnected ecosystem and the impact human activity has on this delicate balance.

Working together with Reef Check Malaysia and Marine Park Malaysia, Alstom identified Tioman Island, Perhentian Island and Redang Island for the R2R project. The activities planned start from April and last all the way to October, avoiding Malaysia’s traditional monsoon period."
