Emanuel Norman from Sweden, who came to Borneo just to see what the fuss about Sipadan Island is all about, initially planned to spend just a few days in Semporna. More than 2 weeks later he is still here, just completed his 6th specialty diver course and is now a PADI Master Scuba Diver. Emanual has been diving almost every day and found for himself that not only Sipadan, but also the islands of the nearby marine park like Sibuan or Mantabuan offer some excellent dive sites with some of the most unusual marine critters to be discovered. Already he is planning to return next year to complete his PADI Divemaster and ultimately his PADI Instructor Development Course here in Borneo.

Congratulations Emanuel from the whole Sipadan Scuba team!
