Furthermore, Sazli bin Kamal Basha, the Managing Director of Sail Malaysia, elaborates on this remarkable initiative, saying, “In a departure from previous years, the Langkawi Yacht Rally bore witness to the stirring spirit of community as local residents joined forces with yachting communities to cleanse the breath-taking beaches of Pulau Singa Besar. This incredible collaboration, which included the invaluable support of Merikit Daat, Rebak Island Resort & Marina, Langkawi Development Authority, and Tropical Chartered, exemplifies our unwavering commitment to safeguarding the ethereal beauty of this island paradise for generations to come.
A collaborative effort involving 45 personnel from LADA (Langkawi Development Authority), Sail Malaysia Participants, Marine Department, the Customs Department, and other organizations, embarked on a 2.5-hour cleaning exercise. Glistening with enthusiasm, they worked tirelessly to collect 688 debris from the beach, showcasing their commitment to maintaining the pristine state of the island and preserving its natural beauty for generations to come.
Pulau Singa Besar welcomes you to a stunning unspoiled beach paradise covering over 1572 acres of sandy beaches, lush jungles, and jagged limestone. As you soak up the exquisite vistas, you might witness macaques, mouse deer, hornbills, peacocks, lizards, and eagles flitting around, celebrating the beauty of this tropical utopia.
