The most beautiful island in Malaysia 🫶

A very beautiful island, but overcrowded with Chinese people. Everywhere you go, whether on paid excursions or those organized by the resort, you risk bumping into other people. The areas where they let you swim are always fenced off. Hygiene is very poor even at the nicest resorts, and the risk of getting sick is very high. When you arrive, you'll find a large open-air landfill. It smells incredible, and leachate discharges directly into the sea...where you swim. And your excrement? Oh yes, it's always there. The most observant can go on a treasure hunt to find the exact spot where it comes out.
