Episode One

Welcome to a spot "a little to the east."

Your first question would probably be "a little to the east of WHERE?"

That answer is simple, at least to this writer it is.

A little to the east of where he is currently based;

A place where he was born, where he grew up and where he spent most of his life.

A little place where, he has learned, those who from places "further west" tend to stereotype (a lot of times negatively) because of either a lack of understanding or just sheer ignorance.

A little place called home.

A place called North Borneo by some, but officially, this place is called Sabah, the Land Below The Wind.

Welcome to a corner of cyberspace dedicated to simply explaining what Sabah and its people (the Sabahans) are all about, correcting the misconceptions, and simply dispelling all the negative perceptions that a lot of non-Sabahans tend to have about this "foreign land" thanks to a few ignorant and irresponsible fools who simply can't help but mess things up for the rest of us.

Let's hope this Sabahan can shed some light into the mysteries surrounding his land and its people, along with some help from fellow Sabahans out there of course.
