巴都丁宜恢复光采 Batu Ferringhi

打造巴都丁宜恢复以往光采，人人有责！

政府拨款14亿2000万令吉，希望在各部门的配合，旅游业经营者、旅客与人民的全面参与下，致力恢复巴都丁宜以往的光采，使它再度成为槟州最主要的旅游景点。

槟州旅游发展及环保委员会主席邓章耀指出，在大马第9发展计划下，政府通过水利灌溉局拨款8亿令吉，充足清洁当地3条河流，将其水源素质提升至第2极，并在有关计划在年底达到水平时，邀请槟岛市政局主席拿督再纳拉欣，陪同水利灌溉局全国总监与他一起跳入其中之一条河流游泳。

RM 800 million to clean up 3 rivers in Batu Ferringhi? Sound like crazy!! i have no idea how RM 800 million can spend for...but it is not a small amount!! Anyway, hope they use it wisely to clean up Batu Ferringhi, my hometown. Basically the main contaminants are from the restaurant wastes (foods waste) which full of oils and grease. All these O & G are being flushed to river without proper treatment or oil separation. With these high organic loading of wastes being dumped into river, sure lah, the fishes and plants can't survive mah. The river near SRJC once used to be crystal clear, now become blackish and smelly. The rubbishes from local folks all dump near the main road with 2 to 3 small rubbish bins. If the rubbishes not collect for more than a day, i am damn very sure that it will throw on the floor. I event complained to the MPPP due to this!!!

I think another main contamiant is from Rumah Setinggan where all the used water being flush to river...... because they do not have a proper system to treat it. So, treatment of river must go deep into kampung to centralize the waste treatment and prevent them from throwing rubbish into rivers too.


他表示，槟岛市政局也积极策划在这个旅游景点，举办旅游活动项目，吸引更多旅客的参与，有如再度重办经已停办多年的海滩嘉年华会中显现出来。

经有多年停办的海滩嘉年华会，于周日在巴都丁宜海滩再现，吸引旅客及本地人民的参与。主办单位积极策划下，进行了多项的竞技项目，其中包括：龙舟赛、独木舟比赛、风帆、沙滩排球赛、沙滩拔河、建筑沙滩城堡赛、登滑柱杆比赛、卡拉OK歌唱赛、钓鱼比赛等等。

In my memory, i think the last carnival was held when i was still in primary school and i still remember that was my happy moment not only for me but also for my dad because he can earned more during that weekend. A lot of "outsider" from Batu Ferringhi would drove all the way to Batu Ferringhi, an area once older generation did not encourage thier children to go to because of windy road.

I event joined the sand castle building competition together with my brother. That was even earlier, maybe age around 5 and a local newspaper published our photo. My mom still keep that paper cutting.

Time to bring back the glory moment of Batu Ferringhi, but 1st of all, clean the place.
