EDITOR’S NOTE

　　With the stunning cover photo by Patrick Ong, we are opening a newpage at the beginning of this year.

　　If you have fetish about macro critters, Davao City in the far south of thePhilippines might be a good choice for your next trip； if you like the ‘bigscene’, then the Sardine Run in South Africa – as experienced by TimoDersch – can be exciting； a challenge pursuer? No problem. I think ViroitCave diving in Albania is technical and rare enough. And do not forget tobring a camera – even compact – for those aforementioned destinations.

　　This issue happens to be the show directory for DRT SHOW Malaysia2020, we exclusively invited Azua Shafi i to share some tips aboutfreediving competitions as well as asking the Tropical Research AndConservation Centre (TRACC) for the latest on marine conservation inMalaysia Borneo. Also, our featured photographer for this issue is ManBdUid who has now joined forces with his talented wife, Ipah Uid, in theunderwater photography world.

　　Lastly, have you planned your dive trips for year 2020? I hope your planis as well organised as my editorial calendar.

　　随着Patrick Ong拍摄的迷人封面照，我们将为新的一年揭开扉页。如果你特别嗜爱微距生物，那位于菲律宾最南方的达沃也许是你下一趟旅程的选择；如果你喜欢大场面，那 Timo Dersch 造访南非沙丁鱼风暴的经验肯定剌激；如果你是个喜爱挑战的人，没问题！我想阿尔巴尼亚的 Viroit 洞穴潜水算够技术性也很罕见了。若是真的造访以上三个景点，千万别忘了带上你的相机——即使是卡片机也好。

　　这期杂志刚好是 2020 年马来西亚潜水暨度假观光展的会刊，我们独家邀请到 Azua Shafi i 来与我们分享自由潜水竞赛的小贴士；热带研究与保护中心 (TRACC) 也带来马来西亚波罗洲海洋保育的最新信息。同时，本期的精选摄影师为 ManBd Uid，他与同样才华洋溢的妻子——Ipah Uid 在水摄界里携手潜进。

　　你已经为 2020 年度计划好潜水之旅了吗？我希望你的计划和我的年度编务一样蓄势待发。
