Blue hue: Pulau Sembilan's glowing 'tears' back to dazzle visitors - but island stays closed for now


IPOH: The "blue tears" phenomenon of Pulau Sembilan, an island cluster off the coast of Bagan Datuk, has recovered since the island's closure in 2017, says Perak Tourism Committee chairman Datuk Nolee Ashilin Mohamed Radzi (pic).

The blue tears are caused by bioluminescent organisms, which glow with a blue hue.
