    saya Sabahan. rumah parents di Lahad Datu. nelayan di sana ada yang Malaysian dan bukan Malaysian. tapi tak kira dia warga Malaysia or bukan kebanyakan daripada mereka ada hubungan kekeluargaan dengan orang Filipina di seberang tu. jadi mereka sangat biasa berhubung dengan mereka di sana disebabkan jarak yang agak hampir. kalau kena nelayan tali barut pirate tu nasib la kan, jadi kena pandai jaga diri

    Even for me as a local in sabah..i nearly got kidnapped with 2 of my friends😂..Yes there are only 2-3 cases reported in the past 2-3 years.But actually there's a lot of kidnapping that happen there😅,but they cant do anything about it,since most of the people that got kidnapped doesnt have any document,if they go to the police.They will be sent back to the philipines😅..That will be the first and last,im not going to semporna ever again..A lot of people from philipines that dont have any document there,its scary there😅

    I read a lot of comments here saying “listen to your wife” but in my case, I listened to my husband 😆. We were thinking of where to go for anniversary holiday but when I suggested Mabul he rejected saying “banyak lanun”. I was doubting this until I saw this video and some of the comments sharing their experiences 👀

  • @kellie88

    Thank God Rachel's instinct save you.
    Be safe always. Also dont let your children run freely in public places anywhere in the world. I remembered one incident in Singapore famous shopping mall in Orchard road. There was this Indian family from India who left their kids running around the mall at the highest level, suddenly there was a big sound, and the son was sprawling on the ground floor in front of the customer office counter. He died. What happened is, the boy who is around 14 years old was playing at the escalator, and then he climb and sat on the rail, hoping to get a ride down and unfortunately lost his grip and fall head down. It was very unfortunate and sad incident😭
    So be safe and vigilant on your surroundings .
    God bless you all 🙏🙏🙏

    Spent 2 yrs + of my childhood back in the late 50s-early 60s living in semporna and island hopping with my parents, Sipadan was one of them. We had pirates back then but I had fond memories of my time at sea and visiting the people living on these islands. My father was a govt servant seeing to the welfare of the locals and maintaining some sort of law and order. Had no fear as I was too young to care. I was so sunbaked then that my relatives called me the Bajau kid.

    Pirates have been prevalent in that region for eons. The chinese were writing about it since about 2000 years ago. It is really not surprising since it is on one of the busiest aqatic trade routes in the world. It could even be argued that all the East India Companies be it Portuguese, Dutch and English were crown sponsored pirate operations.

There are pirxxxs... 😮 I'm a Sabahan and my brother who used to work in Sipadan Island experienced that ordeal way back in 20xx. It was the most scariest experience he had, fortunately he and his wife managed to hide but a few were captured and was headline news at that time. The captives were released alive with the government's persistence.
