“Congratulations! You are now standing at the Southern Most Tip of
Mainland Asia.”
The signboard beamed widely at me as
I peered towards the vast landscape. As winds blew gently over the confluence
of the Strait of Malacca and Strait of Johore, the sun beat wildly upon the
skin.
Whew! Despite the intense heat, the
view of huge tankers docking in international waters was a sight to behold.
Row upon row of ships anchored
symmetrically, and all I could hear was the silence of the howling winds. It is
an astounding scene, to face one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes. Its
shallow seaway is used by thousands of tankers daily.
Is this really the tip of Southern
Most Tip of Mainland Asia?
Its unique geographical position at
the southern tip of mainland Asia, at 1° 16.00’ North and 103° 30.46’ East
coordinates, is the reason the park is proudly referred to as the Southernmost
Tip of Mainland Asia.
The journey to Tanjung Piai National
Park in Pontian, located 75 kilometres from Johor Bahru city centre is about an
hour and a half away by car.
Upon entering the park, take note of
the gargantuan obelisk at the entrance of the Tanjung Piai Johor National Park.
Pictured on the stone, is a map of the world, pin-pointing the park as the
Southernmost Tip of Mainland Asia.
