    Sabahans are really friendly. One fact about Sabah is, that it is a vocal powerhouse in Malaysia. A lot of great Malaysian singers are Sabahan. Their vocal is unbeatable and they’ll have a karaoke session any time of the day.

      Can i correct you a little bit?
      It is Ka'amatan..NOT Keamatan.
      Keamatan is a Malay word that has no meaning.

    I lived in Kuching from 2003-6. Gawai was a festival that i always looked forward to. Spent most of them in tiny kampongs out in the jungle, often being recruited to play the gongs until sunrise when they realized I was a trained musicians. Then someone tried to teach me how to do the plate dance. That was an utter failure. 😂 Thanks for bringing the memory back to me. Those where some of the best times of my life that I’ll never forget.
