Redang is quite popular for those looking for 4D3N type holidays. Haven't been there yet, but seeing the photos of friends who were there, quite a nice and scenic place.

It's in Malaysia. State of Terengganu. Great spot for diving, snorkeling & lying around doing nothing. It's the island where that Sammi Cheng + Richie Ren movie was shot (the one with the Mo Mo Tea House).

http://www.redang.com.my/

Excellent location to take photos. Shot around 5-6 rolls last year when i was there. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: two thumbs up. Great sunrise/sunset shots.

Should book well in advance as diving season is coming round the corner.

Alternate short travel getaway destinations: Bali, Kuantan, Penang, Koh Samui, Phuket, Krabi, P.Aur/Dayang, Tioman, Berkelah waterfalls, Jerankang waterfalls, Endau Rompin (if you're up to it).. really depends on your travel preferrences.

must have clean toilet one lah, must have piped hot water on lah, must have air-con one lah, must have cable tv in hotel room one lah, must shop one lah..

How about Boracay? It's in the Philippines... don't worry, the notorious Abu Sayyaf are far far away.

I've been there once (off-shore though <g>) and my, the white sand beaches are really lovely (and sparkling blue waters)! Would definitely go there once me and my family go back home for a visit (I'm a Filipino).

You might want to try Koh Samui.
A resort island in Thailand........my colleagues have been there and they have returned with photos of really beautiful landscape views.....

Honestly, why not book a room at one of the hotels in Singapore itself? I realised one thing about Singapore when I decided to see it in a different light. Try doing this, change your perspective, start going around Singapore like a tourist. You realise that there's so many things that you've never realised was happening in Singapore. There's Little India, Chinatown, and various places of little interests (pardon the pun!). Of course, it doesn't sound as good as going to Redang, or Batam or whatever. But it definitely makes a good and cheap getaway.

Jonathan? Who's that? A fellow countryman of mine here?

Yes. Boracay is after Cebu. It's a few hours boat ride from there. There's a flight from Singapore to Cebu, if I remember correctly. Not sure whether it's a direct flight though.

Thanks Ninja and Richard.

Ninja, look like you are very resourceful. Got a lot of Lobang also.

Richard, I agree with you as I never have a chance to properly explorer Singapore yet as a Tourist. But married man like me have our constrain and I glad that Ninja help explain it.
