History
Tioman has been used for
thousands of years by fishermen as an important navigation point and a source
of fresh water and wood. During the past thousand years, it has played host to Chinese, Arab, and European trading ships, and often porcelain shards can be found on beaches around
the island.
In more recent history, Tioman
played host to both the British and the Japanese during the Second World War,
and the waters around the island are littered with war remains (including HMS Repulse and HMS Prince
of Wales).
Tioman island does not allow
buildings to have more than 3 stories.
