I’m thinking of doing Siladen Resort in Jukyv2020.

There has never been any abduction or whatsoever in Siladen... it's just in front of Bunaken and Manado!, probably the safest place in Indonesia.
 
I think your thinking of Sipdan, where there was abductions many years ago. And the a few years ago there was some action in the Semporna area. Both are in Malaysia.

Borneo, Malaysia
 
When was the last time someone was abducted from there?

Like never :D

I was there several years ago. If it's still being run by Miquel and Ana then go as they used to run Lembeh Resort. My daughter and I visited several years ago and it was great, but personally I prefer Lembeh, but the standards for food etc are as good as :)

On the downside here is no house reef, and unless things have changed fresh water is imported, the showers in the accommodation lack a decent flow.
 
Interesting. Didn't the resort win some big award this year?

No idea to be honest Chilly. When I was there, there was limited water for showering, it barely dribbled out of the shower, although the post dive shower facility was better. Miguel did inform me that there were issues obtaining well water, hopefully things have changed for the better.
 
Whoa . . . that doesn't sound too award worthy
