Kuku Anambas Island, Has the Best Marine Spots
Kuku Island, which is located in the Anambas Islands Regency, Riau Islands (Kepri), turns out to have marine spots that are no less exotic.
The charm of beauty starts from the surrounding nature which is still in the form of forests, so it is very beautiful and green.
Apart from that, the beachside marine tourism on this island is no less beautiful than other tourist spots in the Anambas Islands.
Moreover, there we find historical records that are worth knowing.
One of them is a boat-shaped monument. This monument was built to commemorate the events of the 1980s.
Apart from that, there are also memorial inscriptions which have their own history.
Refugee Vietnamese Citizens
Based on historical stories, in 1979, the Vietnamese people decided to make this island a place of refuge.
It is recorded that during that era, Vietnam experienced a civil war crisis. Around 40 thousand Vietnamese people come to Kuku Island and live there.
Well, these Vietnamese people who fled were nicknamed boat or canoe people.
They are called canoe people because they are stranded in the ocean, for months in sea waters.
Finally, they arrived at Kuku Island and stayed temporarily on this island.
