Where is the best Island(s) in South East Asia to go to in mid-January

Where is the best Island(s) in South East Asia to go to in mid-January?
I plan on taking a trip from Kuala Lumpur (where I currently live) to a chilled out island, relatively nearby, but want to avoid the monsoon/any bad weather. I'll be traveling on my own, which I like to do sometimes and I really want peace and quiet, a good beach, plenty of sun and clear water. I want to avoid any of the horrific tourist traps and overpopulated, areas of the South-East Asian Islands. As my girlfriend is overseas and my friends are working, I want a place that I can just read a good book, get a tan, eat some excellent local food, take stunning photos (I'm an amateur photographer) and recharge for the eventual rat-race to come. I have been to: *Perhentian Islands (My favorite) *Tioman (Ok-la) *Redang (Too many tourists... but met some fellow Londoners here!) *Langkawi (Liked it) *Bali (Need to explore more). I was considering Phi Phi / Phuket / Boracay or one of the Sulawesi Islands. I might even go back to Bali, but NW/NE and explore the SE Islands like Lombok. :P

Contact the nearest British Embassy and ask how to get a visa. This could be a long process. You will also need a ticket and be able to prove that you have enough money for your stay in Britain.

You will need a visa to be able to come to the UK for a visit. You can find all the information about that at this link to our Government Border Agency site... http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/ukvqr;jsessionid=2D5D2436637749C672DC7F65374F7842.tomcat3?redirect=true&promoId=1910262&reason=Visit&nationality=Philippines&location=Malaysia You will also need to prove to our immigration that you have enough money to support yourself whilst you are here, and that you intend to leave the country before your visa expires. Unfortunately too many people have come here in the same circumstances as yourself and have abused the terms of their visa, and not left the country...this has a rebound effect on other visitors to the UK in as much as it makes it harder for them to enter the UK.

According to one investigation initialized by ITPUB in 2009, the biggest Database tech community. The monetary unit is Chinese currency RMB here. Firstly, the salary of DBA is generally higher than software developer. 72.1% of them is higher than 4000. Among them, 31.3%'s salary are more between 4000 and 5999; 17.7% can have 6000 to 7999; 11.6% can get 8000 to 9999; 11.5% can earn more than 10000. Changzhou is not a big city. But it should be convenient for living. The house price there is much cheaper than the major big cities in China. So the money you make is enough for your living. Maybe you can even afford the loan of buying an apartment. As you know, DBA is one of the stablest job in IT area. But language fluency is required for DBA, you are safe if you can communicate with your technical colleague and your boss.
