象屿山“洞天福地”开发景点
莫哈末拉维:配合吉州旅游年‧象屿山“洞天福地”开发景点
吉打州政府配合2016年吉州旅游年,要將象屿山一条长约2.6公里的暗窿与山道,重新规划为寻幽探秘的旅游景区。

当局也將会重新启用,之前由吉州经济发展局(UPEN)於4年前,耗资约100万令吉建竣,但尚未开放游客使用的9层楼电梯;从电梯建筑再搭建一座铁桥通往山壁的洋灰梯级进入山洞及暗窿。
吉打州旅游事务委员会主席莫哈末拉维说,象屿山深具开发旅游活动的潜能,所以州政府正在物色有经验的管理公司深入挖掘象屿山的“洞天福地”般的特色,打造成为一个能够吸引游客的新景区。
照耀暗黑山腹
山洞或装彩灯系统
莫哈末拉维透露,若象屿山能够仿傚中国桂林,在山洞里安装彩灯系统,將会把原本暗无天日的山腹,照耀成七彩繽纷的美景,必能吸引游客的到来。
他说,州政府希望管理公司须有丰富的山洞景区的管理及行销经验,包括在互联网宣传,以及承担安装彩灯的费用。
“我们要难最快的时间內开放,同时会收取便宜费用,例如5或者10令吉。”
他希望有朝一日,象屿山“洞天福地”能够崛起,成为类似黑风洞知名度及能吸引游客到来观光的魅力。
他指出,除了象屿山也是传统的能开採水晶矿石而闻名全国的“水晶山”,居民也有售卖水晶,附近还有稻米博物馆、科学馆、马来传统村庄,成为一个多元化的景区。
莫哈末拉维昨日(3日)跟新任財政司峇卡丁、UPEN与大马矿物及地质科学局官员,及吉打港口4B青年组织,一起到山洞及暗窿寻幽探秘。
收集具歷史价值石头
象屿山应建“石头博物馆”
他也提出,建议在象屿山兴建一座“石头博物馆”,专门收集州內各地的雅石、怪石,以及具有歷史的石头,例如浮罗交怡默金章山约5亿年、象屿山有约2亿5千万年的歷史及水晶而闻名。
他说,外国每每有本身的特色,成为旅游的卖点,而吉州若有最悠久歷史的石头,不妨从这方面开发本土特色的旅游。
欢迎提供“点子”推销旅游业
莫哈末拉维也欢迎各个单位及个人,提供良好及能够推销旅游业的“点子”,以强化明年度的旅游年內容。
他举例,日前已跟吉打州华人事务委员会属下的青年局商討,配合华人农歷新年,在唐人街一带悬掛数以千计的灯笼。

Poor park amenities keep visitors away
Poor park amenities keep visitors away
POOR maintenance and inadequate amenities are keeping tourists away from the stalls at the foot of Gunung Keriang, located about 7km away from the city centre.
Standing at 217m high in the middle of a padi field, Gunung Keriang is a popular recreational park.
However, its shine has been fading away over the past few years due to poor maintenance.
One of the traders, Tijah Yaakob, 65, said her business had been affected as the visitor number has been dwindling.
"Even local visitors are shying away due to the lack of facilities.
"They do not mind the makeshift stalls but the park is in dire need of well-maintained amenities such as restrooms, a surau and rest area.
"The dirty restrooms are a major turn-off for visitors," said Tijah who has been selling crystals at Gunung Kerian for almost five years.
Her sentiment was echoed by another trader, Mahadi Mat Akhir, 48.
"We need a permanent complex here so that the visitors will feel comfortable when they come to the recreational park," he said.
There are 11 makeshift wooden stalls at the park selling souvenirs made from quartz mined at Gunung Keriang.
The stalls, which are in a state of disrepair, depend on nearby houses for electricity supply.
A check by Streets found the recreational park in a deplorable condition. The restrooms, which appeared to have been neglected for some time, did not have water and electricity supply. They were also filled with rubbish.
It is a shame that the park is an eyesore during Visit Malaysia Year 2014.
Alor Star Mayor Datuk Mat Noh Ahmad could not be reached for comment.
Mahadi Mat Akhir, who sells crystals mined from Gunung Keriang, says there should be a permanent building for the traders to do business in.

州政府定后年为旅游年
州政府定后年为旅游年‧旅游日历重新整理
吉州政府准备为象屿马来村庄注入新生命力。(图:星洲日报)
吉打州政府已把后年定为“2015年吉打州旅游年",因此將会重新整理、规划州內各项不同地区的旅游节目,大型节庆活动,以便列入旅游年日历。
吉州旅游事务委员会主席莫哈末拉维说,2014年已被旅游部设定为“马来西亚旅游年",隔一年就是“吉州旅游年",但是吉州政府並没有就此鬆懈及痴等。
他说,作为大马的一部份,吉州许多节目也有被列入明年度的马来西亚旅游年活动,只是在2015年將举办更多的活动。
莫哈末拉维昨日(25日)中午出席象屿马来传统村庄举行的马来传统婚礼后,接受访问时这么说。
政府须瞭解游客要求
商討圣乐塔每天播“圣乐"一次
莫哈末拉维说,除了原有节目外,政府也要瞭解游客的要求和口味,以泰国游客为例,他们入境到大马,除了去浮罗交怡,从內陆入境也直接驱车到檳城,而没有停留在吉州。
“我们不希望许多节目都是自娱而已,並不能吸引到外地游客的到来,所以要知道吉州还有甚么旅游潜能。"他有向吉州旅游局主任罗斯兰討论,是否能够让市中心文化广场的圣乐塔,每天都有播放一次的“圣乐",在此特定时间吸引各地游客的到来。
询及象屿马来传统村庄在民联时期没有良好的规划及发展,莫哈末拉维说,州政府將会与吉州旅游局共同探討,结合象屿马来传统村庄及稻米博物馆的特点,作出进一步的强化。
“除了类似马来传统婚礼外,还有其他適合的活动,以及稻米博物馆所举办的播种、插秧嘉年华,这些节目都能被列入旅游年的日历內推广。"他將会儘快把有关问题,带到州务大臣慕克力主持的州行政议会討论。
至於是否仿傚泰南的水上市场,他说,玻州之前有类似的仿傚节目,但是反应不够理想,而亚罗士打唐人街及海墘街交接的水域是很適合,但是许多吉州人都不熟悉“水上生活",若发生意外就更麻烦了。
