Mentawai, The Islands with The World’s Best Waves

The Mentawai Islands consist of four big islands, Siberut, Sipora, North Pagai, and South Pagai, in addition to countless small islands spread in the Indian Ocean. The shape of its bay’s curve and the presence of waves rolling among islands make it possible for the group of islands off West Sumatra to have more than a dozen types, out of hundreds of types of waves available in the world. The islands are located around 100 miles from the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia.

The Mentawai Islands have at least 40 surf spots with the world’s best waves. This place is also famous for the presence of fractions of shallow waves that slide fast. There are also a variety of types of waves starting from heavy waves to intimidating thunderous ones.

Although a 7.7-magnitude earthquake destroyed houses and infrastructure in Mentawai on Oct. 25, 2010, the islands have recovered fast to stand again as the world’s surf destination. Even a surfing competition, Ripcurl Pro Mentawai Surfing Competition 2012 was held in May. It was the same competition held in the previous year.

There are several surf spots in Mentawai: in Nyanyang, Karang Bajat and Karonik beaches, as well Pananggelat Mainut beach in South Siberut. People can also surf in Katiet Bosua and South beaches in Sipora, as well as in West beach in North Pagai.

You can use a motor boat or a small airplane to get to those surf spots. There are also guides to help you. Accommodation is available along beaches on the Mentawai Islands for those who spend a night or more. It is suggested that renting a boat is the most reasonable way to go to Mentawai.

Mentawai waves come in different sizes, including the extreme ones.

People usually surf between April and October, when Mentawai waves reach their peak. Surfers can try the might of Mentawai waves that rolls violently. The islands’ waves are not that high and quite challenging from November to March.

The ideal surfing board is the one that can give you speed without making you lose your ability to maneuver. It is not uncommon for surfers to surf eight-foot (2.5 meter) waves, and paddle into the barrel . You’d better bring as much equipment as possible, especially spare legropes, because it is difficult to find a surf shop there.

The easiest access to Mentawai is from Padang, West Sumatra. Minangkabau International Airport every day sees flights by Garuda Indonesia, Mandala, Lion Air, Sriwijaya Air and Batavia Air from Jakarta; Mandala from Medan; Garda and Silk Air from Singapore; and Air Asia from Malaysia..

Basically, both religions are now able to live side by side between the two followers and not mutually negated. But who would have thought, was once among the followers of Shinto and Buddhist occur sharp disputes.

At that time, his father's empire was divided into two warring factions that the group led by Sogano Umako who proposes to make Buddhism as the state. And other groups led by Mononobe-no Moriya who supported traditional Japanese Shinto.

Prince Shotoku itself is allied Sogano Umako because it strongly supports the Buddhist and automatically opposite Mononobe. The prince then prayed to Shitenno (Buddha) and promised that if his prayer to beat Moriya granted then he will rouse the temple to honor Shitenno. Prayer prince turned out to be granted. Moriya was killed by one of the soldiers Shotoku, so automatically clan Prince Shotoku wins. Remember the promise, Shotokupun soon realize its promise to build a temple named Shitennoji.

Even this temple still exist today, and maintained the authenticity of the building. For those who are curious to visit the first note address on 1-11-18 Shitennoji, Tennoji-ku, Osaka-shi.

Moscow woos Muslim tourists with halal hotel

Princes ::::: MOSCOW — No bacon for breakfast, a room for prayers and Quran on your bedside table: A hotel in Moscow has launched a special “halal” service as Russia tries to attract visitors from the Muslim world.

“Around 70 per cent of our guests are from overseas and 13 per cent of these — or some 5,000 people — come from Muslim countries, especially Iran,” said Lyubov Shiyan, marketing director at the Aerostar hotel.

“Our Muslim visitors were constantly asking for a separate prayer room or a special menu,” she said. “We wanted everyone who came here to feel at home.”

To make that happen, the hotel had to go through a rigorous procedure before it could finally be certified halal by Muslim officials in Russia and launch the service this month.

But the extra work looks like it could be worth it.

These are tough times for Russia's tourism industry with the numbers of visitors — especially from the West — nosediving in recent months amid the worst East-West tensions since the Cold War over the crisis in Ukraine.

Industry sources set the drop in Western visitors, notably from the US and Britain, at 30 to 50 per cent.

That has sent hotels scrambling to attract guests from other parts of the globe — including Muslim nations in the Mideast and Asia that have placed no sanctions on Moscow over its intervention in Ukraine.

“We equipped 20 rooms out of the 308 in the hotel with a prayer mat, a basin for ritual washing and a small compass that indicates the direction of Mecca,” said Shiyan.

Those staying in the specially modified accommodation at the hotel, in the capital's north halfway between Sheremetyevo International Airport and downtown Moscow, will also find a copy of the Quran provided.

“Even the shampoo and soap in the rooms have been certified as halal and do not contain any animal fats or alcohol,” she added.

Two prayer rooms — one for men and one for women — have been set up and a separate kitchen will be cooking exclusively halal food.

“You won't find any pork or ham here,” chef Vitaly Ukhanov told AFP, standing in his small bright kitchen, with a sign with the word “halal” written inside a green star hung up on the wall.

“All the crockery is new and has never been used in the main kitchen,” added the cook.

Discretion, however, is maintained. Though Muslim clients are served at a separate group of tables away from the main buffet, there are no signs indicating it is a halal section and they are tended to by a special team of waiters.

'Services in high demand'

The investment has already started paying off for the hotel, which hosts many high-level Iranian businessmen.

In the first two weeks since its launch the hotel has already boosted reservations from Malaysia and Iran for the service.

“Due to the fall in the number of visitors from the EU and the US, the Russian tourist industry has started paying greater attention to people coming from Muslim nations,” said Samat Sadykov, from the Halal International Centre for Standardisation and Certification in Moscow.

“Creating the right conditions for them to have a comfortable stay here has become all the more important,” he said. “Halal services are now in high demand.”

Despite being home to some 20 million Muslims, Russia today has only two hotels — both in the traditionally Muslim region of Tatarstan — that are officially recognised as halal, Sadykov said.

One other hotel in the Black Sea resort town of Sochi is also applying for the status, after the 2014 Winter Olympics pointed to the lack of appropriate facilities to meet the needs of Muslim athletes like prayer rooms and halal menus.

“It is totally insufficient,” lamented Sadykov.

Other Sochi hotels, however, are now looking into offering similar features for Muslim guests, with the Olympic facilities set to host future high-level sports events including some of the 2018 World Cup football matches.

“If we now add in the number of tourists and businessmen coming to Russia from the Middle East, Turkey or Iran then we're talking about a truly enormous number of potential customers,” said Sadykov
