Went to Bintan resorts...right after the tsunami

19 years ago

Hi there,

I went to Bintan Resorts finally, it was a nice place, great beaches..fine resorts.. however we won't in a mood to enjoy.
maybe because, we were there on 26 Dec.. sometime in the afternoon..and stumble on the news at our hotel room.

It was a disaster...... people are worrying about the after effects while in Bintan and stayed away from the beaches for a while. But actually, i don't see any after effects. And it was reported clearly in the news that places like australia, singapore are not affected. Bintan is south of Singapore, and it isvery much shield by Sumatra.

So bintan resorts aren't affected at all.

Hope that my information is useful for some of you out there. Thanks

rgds,
