Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta Ep2: Pulau Bangau in Teluk Intan

Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta is a new ecotourism-centred series on Earth Matters, which aims to highlight lesser-known  ecotourism spots right here in Malaysia. Done in collaboration with the Ecotourism & Conservation Society Malaysia (ECOMY) the series will take you back to nature, by visiting off-the-beaten-track spots in our country. In our second episode, we head over to Teluk Intan in Perak, and find out about Pulau Bangau, an island in Sungai Perak which is now a thriving heronry. We train our binoculars to discover the different species of birds and wildlife found in the area, before setting sail on a gentle river cruise to view the light display by fireflies! Guiding us along for this adventure is Andrew Sebastian, the Founder & Chief Executive Officer of ECOMY, who assures us that we won’t regret visiting Teluk Intan, and the island of egrets!
