From a seed planted six months ago, a group of young environmentalists are, today, taking charge of their island home. THERE were no stars that night but the children dazzled. Fully charged, 100 of them recited poems, sang songs and danced on the beach, marking the completion of an environmental programme and the start of a new chapter in their lives.
They learn to plant saplings the correct way. About 100 primary and secondary students in Langkawi fell in love with the wildlife after spending their weekends jungle-trekking on the island with naturalist Irshad Mobarak. And this went for six months.
In Langkawi a nature adventure had a true-blue naturalist as their guide. The guides name is Irshad Mobarak. Dubbed the Jungle-wallah (Jungle-fellow) of Langkawi he is perfect for the job as he possesses vast knowledge about Langkawis wildlife, gleaned from years of trekking and observation of its jungles, mangroves and wildlife.
Irshad Mobarak, also known as "The Jungle-Wallah of Langkawi", is well known for his passion and enthusiasm towards nature and the environment. "CARROL LAWRENCE" tells us about a self taught naturalist who has dedicated his time to promote conservation on Langkawi Island off the northwestern coast of Peninsula Malaysia.
Keine Bettenburgen, keine Partymeile, keine Strandpromenade. Stattdessen staksen Reiher über den weißen Sand, und hinter dem Hotel beginnt der 400 Jahre alte Regenwald. Die malaysische Insel Langkawi hat sich dem Ökotourismus verschrieben Der Mann ist nicht nur höllisch attraktiv, er hat auch einen sechsten Sinn. Jedenfalls sieht er ständig etwas, was wir nicht sehen. Irshad Mobarak ist Regenwaldexperte und weiß, wie raffiniert sich die tropische Tierwelt tarnt. Das reglose, angefaulte Wurzelholz neben seinem Fuß? Er tippt es kurz an, und es entfaltet sich zu einer tellergroßen Tarantel, die blitzartig in einer Erdhöhle verschwindet.
