Sabah is a Malaysian state located on the northern portion of the island of Borneo. It is the second largest state in Malaysia after Sarawak, which it borders with on its south-west. It also shares a border with the province of East Kalimantan of Indonesia in the south. Sabah used to be a British crown colony known as North Borneo prior to partnership with Federation of Malaya, Sarawak and Singapore to form the Federation of Malaysia in 1963. Its state capital is Kota Kinabalu, formerly known as Jesselton. Sabah is known as Sabah, negeri di bawah bayu, which means 'Sabah, land below the wind', because of its location being just south of the typhoon prone region around the Philippines.
I'm now often travel to Sabah for work. I can say that I travel to Sabah once a week. This time I visited ten (10) islands. Sounds like fun huh? Oh yeah! It is fun! So much fun! Really amaaazziinnggg places! Kapalai Island and Sipadan Island is the most spectacular and amazing place that I visited. I suggest if you plan to visit Sabah for holiday you better go to Kapalai Resort. In Kapalai there is one place that you can enjoy sunset. If you only knew how I feel :)
I have thank to the military for their co-operation and hospitality during my visits. Without them I will never feel so secured traveling from one island to another. Additionally, they provide me a food whenever I arrived to each islands. They are doing a good job on our border. Thank You a lot!
