印尼比我的印像真是麻麻哋！但看到這宣傳內容實在令我蠢蠢欲動！印尼海洋還未開發，備收歐美攝影師推崇，反正住船，杳無人煙。我不上天堂，誰上？

三月尾 沙巴遊

今次一連九日沙巴行點滴

首站必經 -- 亞庇, 入住的 Le Meridien好正！地點旺中帶靜, 旁邊新商場臨立, 正對面曰間是很大的街市, 傍晚是平民夜市, 像 '上環大躂地'(已成習體回憶) -- 平民化飲食攤檔是感受當地人生活的必到處，橫街窄巷是生活，旅遊的原意！陶傑早前說過旅遊除眼看、手觸、步行外還須耳聽鼻聞啊，還幸有他的認同！漫天峰煙的燒雞翼, 雞尾(一串七/八個), 炸香蕉..., 炸魚(每條斤幾重)セ鱼都有。每個檔主都很友善，笑容滿面, 影相再給你一個 post !為何香港人在鏡頭前總要以手掩面呢？似怪難堪的？

連接市場的是亞庇最新旅遊點, 海邊長廊 (漁人碼頭廐念), 不失為必到之處。各國食肆並立，出品有一定水準, 其中最大的一家必然是港式海鮮酒家了。此外有英式、愛式、澳式等酒吧,也有 Live band 和Jass Bar等世界大同, 難怪長廊擠滿各國遊人在乘凉餐飲。相信是沙巴旅遊促進局這幾年積極推動之功罷。

今次榮幸的是碰到一位華裔馬籍漂亮美女Josephine的介紹, 得以品嘗馬來的出色食品。 我到亞庇不下十次，以今次吃到的馬來食品最出色, 祇見Josephine到處跑, 在不同的食肆和小食亭點菜, 結果滿桌美味食品 , 如願得償...又飽又滿足，我會在潛游頻道一一報道。

濶別亞庇僅一年, 機場新建築接近完成了，乘客流量明顯增加了，實是可喜現象，可見政府的推動何等重要。

Hi,

Animal cruelty cases keep happening, and brought increasing public concern in Hong Kong.  The rights of animals as well as their carers have taken on new importance among political parties and their members.  The coming Wednesday (16 Jan 2008), LEGCO members are going to debate on a motion that proposes a series of policy changes aimed at bettering the rights of animal and of their carers.

This is an important milestone in Hong Kong ’s animal rights movement.  We would not have come this far without the painstaking efforts of all who have contributed to this movement.  Nonetheless, we are still at the infancy of this battle for justice. Success requires everyone’s continued and actioned support.

I appeal to you to express your support for the motion by showing up at the LEGCO Building, at the main entrance from 10:00am to 11:00am (the time around which LEGCO Members proceed to their meeting)  to speak your voice on animal rights to the Government.  [ You may also attend the meeting as observer ]

Detail of the motion for debates can be found in LEGCO website, at:

自從Sara雙脚無力站立差不多ニ年多的折騰，而每天見牠每況愈下，我們家人的心情日往下沉。我家祝願Sara媽媽沒有痛苦平安而安詳地在家長睡。然而Sara知道家人的擔憂，都很乖巧地睡覺，每次須要幫忙才叫我們拿水，拿糧或大小便。十五年多了，牠是我女兒，一個眼神我便知道牠的須要。可能我對狗狗的理解比對人更深，因為牠們的要求很簡單。

日過一日，我必須為Sara的感覺著想，這樣敞著兩年着實受苦噢。不能到處走，追那些永遠追不到的猫是多麼不快的事呢！

就在這天Sara很不安地叫，連我也攪不清牠是痛苦還是甚麼便帶到醫生處。建議給牠睡覺己聽過多次，每次都廷回家。今次最终還是答應了，造了半年的心理準備。那一刻我抱著牠的臉要牠看著我，四目交投的三秒鐘，我要牠等下跟我回家！

我雙眼朦朧了。

Sara媽媽，夢裹見吧，一定要回家噢。我們等你

"An eye-opening film...visually stunning... this movie will change the way you see our oceans."
- Bonnie Laufer, Tribute Magazine

For filmmaker Rob Stewart, exploring sharks began as an underwater adventure. What it turned into was a beautiful and dangerous life journey into the balance of life on earth.

Driven by passion fed from a lifelong fascination with sharks, Stewart debunks historical stereotypes and media depictions of sharks as bloodthirsty, man-eating monsters and reveals the reality of sharks as pillars in the evolution of the seas.

Filmed in visually stunning, high definition video, Sharkwater takes you into the most shark rich waters of the world, exposing the exploitation and corruption surrounding the world's shark populations in the marine reserves of Cocos Island, Costa Rica and the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador.

In an effort to protect sharks, Stewart teams up with renegade conservationist Paul Watson of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. Their unbelievable adventure together starts with a battle between the Sea Shepherd and shark poachers in Guatemala, resulting in pirate boat rammings, gunboat chases, mafia espionage, corrupt court systems and attempted murder charges, forcing them to flee for their lives.

Through it all, Stewart discovers these magnificent creatures have gone from predator to prey, and how despite surviving the earth's history of mass extinctions, they could easily be wiped out within a few years due to human greed.

Stewart's remarkable journey of courage and determination changes from a mission to save the world's sharks, into a fight for his life, and that of humankind.

大嶼山作為香港唯一淨土，  怎可讓這無能政府著手破壞？

大嶼山須要什麼？就是不要假山假水假樹假廣埸！！

政府投入基建, 道路, 供應水電煤。資助本土居民淨化水資源，清理、管理河道及水道，污水處理。修輯古蹟，提供土地公開招商建山林及海邊渡假村。簡化康樂及娛樂投資牌照手續。

政府是退居幕後，提供支援！請勿插手，以免為禍大嶼山。
