| Hello, I am Aussie from Australia. I found this forum from another memeber (Borneo) who posted on an Australian forum that I often read. I will be visiting Sabah next week! So I thought I would read this forum too. It will be My first holiday outside Australia. I am really looking forward to seeing your beautiful country. I might even be planning another holiday there Next year. | |

| My Grandfather served with the Australian Army and spent some time in Borneo during the second world war. He worked and visitited in many local villages while there.
Now, many many years later as an old man, he wants to visit and see where he lived and worked as a young soldier.
I am travelling with a party of 8 family members to visit villages he remember and some good places for tourists to see.
I will be a very special journey for My Grandfather, and for Myself. | |

| Hai Aussie! Did you mention my nickname? Oh yes, welcome on board Sabah Borneo Forum. Yes, I participate in one of the forum you mentioned. Did you say you & co. will be visiting Sabah ( formerly North Borneo ) in a group of 8? In that case, welcome to Sabah. As what alphawaves mentioned. Sabahan are friendly peoples especially if they know Australian citizens who help defended their country in the 2nd World War would be visiting here. Let me recommend you interesting places in Sabah to visit: 1. Sepilok Orang Hutan rehibiliton centre Sandakan. 2. Mount Kinabalu to climb or have a nice view. 3. Selingan Island at Sandakan. 4. Sipadan Island is a heaven for divers. 5. Kundasang War Memorial, Ranau. 6. Sandakan War Memorial. ...and many more interesting places to visit. Feel free to visit this site: http://www.sabahtravelguide.com/welcome.asp | |

| Welcome to the club Aussie! Its been a long and tiring journey for you I guess. May be climbing mount Kinabalu isn't that tough for you I think. Selamat datang ( welcome ) to Sabah and may be Sabah's environment is interesting for you and company to enjoy seeing around. What di you think of the urang utan? | |
