  • I visited a Filipino water village in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah
    My Kota Kinabalu first impressions video ➡️ • 28 Minutes Flight To K...
    While walking around the oceanfront here in Kota Kinabalu I spotted some island nearby. I didn't really know what to expect there so I started to ask around for possible boat rides over there. Little did I know that i will end up visiting a Filipino water village on one of these islands. What a cool and unique experience here in Sabah Malaysia!

    You won’t see many tourist places in my videos, I rather like to show the “real” sides of each country in my videos. Where do the local people go to eat? Where do they hang out? How do the locals travel through the country? Stuff like that.

    🔴Please be respectful in the comment section regarding the topic of Sabah - Malaysia/Philippines. I know there are some tensions at the moment, but my channel is not about politics and I don't want to get involed in any political discussion here. Thanks

    Ken, to clarify, these are Badjao people, a seafaring nomadic group originating from the Philippines. Historically, Badjao traveled and traded between islands regardless of national boundaries. Many have now settled in permanent settlements. So while they are Filipino by heritage, they have lived in Malaysia for generations. Badjao settlements are spread across the Southern Philippines and Malaysia.

      @@kimsohye4801 I don't understand "pilipin aka pilak aa" in your comment. But I have a guess you are telling that Filipino in sabah ask for money and spit on you if you don't give? If so, that is basically how "Badjao" a native tribe in the Philippines, act when you don't give to them. Even Filipinos living in any cities here in the Philippines experience the same thing from those tribe. I think that is their cultural behavior. And for modern people like us, that is unhygienic and illmannered. I also heard that not all Badjao in Sabah act like that. Specially those who are exposed or grown up to modern society.

    Just a little background and context:
    1. Ethnically they are known as Bajau Laut. They are two types of Bajau. One is known as Bajau Darat which means Land Bajau. Many Land Bajau lives in town like Kota Belud in Sabah. Another type is Bajau Laut or Sea Bajau. The kampung you have visited is populated by Bajau Laut.
    2. You can find ethnic Bajau not only in Malaysia but also in neighbouring countries like Indonesia, Brunei and Phillipines.
    3. I believe most of them in the island that you have visited already received Malaysian identity card or I/C which makes them Malaysian citizen.
    4. Before borders were marked by modern nation-states, Bajau Laut have been living scatteredly for hundreds of years around the islands in the vast Sulu Seas which are currently shared by modern states of Malaysia, Indonesia and Philippines.
    5. Many of them are previously refugees from Southern Philippines islands who are escaping the separatist war waged by separatist groups like MNLF, MILF, Abu Sayyaf and other separatist groups in Southern Philippines during the intense battle with Philippines Armed Forces in the 1970s.
    6. The war in Southern Philippines creates a lot of suffering and displacement among the Bajau Laut in the Philippines territory and hundreds of thousands of them find solace in Sabah Malaysia.
    7. Later on in the 1980s, there's a very controversial operation named "Project I/C" where Malaysian government during that time granted citizenship to those refugees through the conferment of I/C (Malaysian Identity Card).
    8. This controversial "Project I/C" until now become one of the most sore point in Sabah politics and affect the ethnic relationship between Sabahan Muslim natives and Sabahan non-Muslim natives because before that Sabah like Sarawak is a non-Muslim majority state but after "Project I/C" it changes the demography of Sabah where the Muslim now becomes the majority in Sabah.
    That's a little bit of background and context. Sabah is a very complex state in Malaysia. And currently there are between 500,000 to one million people who are considered as stateless i.e. without any citizenship in Sabah. Neither Malaysia nor Philippines accept them as their citizens. A very complex and delicate situation.

      Remember the Kampung Tanduo uprising in 2013... it's also those Project IC beneficiaries who were granted citizenship in Malaysia that rose and rebel against the Malaysian government trying to stake claim on Sabah. Total of 235 of traitors. Some six or eight Malaysian policemen died tragically where their bodies were found to have been sadistically tortured. The Phillipines had to beg Malaysia to continue uphold the rights of those Malaysian citizens of Filipino descent after this terrorist act.
      So the point is, statelessness in Sabah will continue because of the acts of those few Malaysians of Filipinos descent who wage war against Malaysia and and her people.

    Careful next time when island hopping in Sabah and it’s Isles, some cases of Moros pirate kidnapping tourists and foreigners have been known to occur. It’s not really likely to happen in KK but if you visit some smaller towns in Sabah which are nearby to even more “adventurous or exotic” islands, it’s a very real possibility if you’re going solo without a travel company, especially now with renewed tension between Sabah and Philippines’ claim.
    If you’re wondering about why the Filipino Moros/sea tribes have ICs in Sabah, it’s a pretty interesting but very sensitive issue. The short story is, the long ruling party in Malaysia and specifically in Sabah, BN & UMNO, issued identity cards to them to secure more votes in order to stay in power in the state, without really making any efforts to naturalise or develop their communities. Allegedly various other parties copied the same strategy and these parties have been doing so for decades, causing an influx of newly “naturalised” illegal migrants numbering in up to a million (maybe more). Personally, I found it a really reckless and heinous political act, as it’s a lose-lose. The migrants don’t get naturalised and developed properly or systematically thus causing them to be subjected to ghettoisation and remain poor. Meanwhile, native Sabahans start to develop a xenophobic view and see them as a burden or nuisance that they have to economically support. (A lot of eerie parallels to what’s happening in West Europe these past few years, I know). The rabbit hole goes much deeper and I really recommend reading into it more further. You can start with the Wikipedia article for “Project IC”. Some publications claim the move was to increase the ratio of Muslims in Sabah, others theorise that it was to destabilise and distract the demographic of Sabah so that more revenues from the oil-rich state can be funnelled into Peninsular Malaysia and some Sabahan politician‘s pockets without using the money to develop Sabah.
    I hope this issue gets resolved eventually. And I hope this doesn’t discourage you from ever visiting Sabah again. It’s a wonderful state, diverse in every way, it’s population, flora and fauna, all truly diverse. I still feel like from your Sabah vids, you’ve only seen about less than 10-15% of what Sabah has to offer. It’s a great place but yeah this issue has been the biggest blemish of the state.

North Sabah owned by the Sultan of Sulu of Philippines until late 1800 when it was leased to a British company and in 1963 country of Malaysia was created and that the British company who leased Sabah from the Sultan of Sulu simply passed it on to Malaysia. Malaysian government treat them as undocumented aliens but they are the descendants of the Sultan of Sulu.

    Hi Ken 👋🏻 very interesting visits to those two islands never met a Bajau Laut before , he is indeed nice and kind 👍 warm welcoming by the people and the kids full of curiosity 🤣 they live a simple life and look happy 👍 I think one of the lady asked you to take off your mask maybe she wanted to see your handsome face 😅 and another guy said 'hati-hati' means to be careful then I heard a kid says 'mintak duit..mintak duit' he said 'ask for some money' , hahahha...so cute 🤣
    And as always you are kind enough to pay the boat guy extra 👍 awesome vlog this time , we get to see the water village of Bajau Laut thanks Ken great job 👍🥰

    The cost will be shared if you travel in a group as the fare is fairly expensive. For about RM60, I can enter three islands.

      @@shahmi5727 stupid, the sultan of sulu is of no use to the people in sabah if they are chosen, if they go to malaysia or the philippines, they will get what they want there, they will get back what should be theirs, so those who don't like the sultan of sulu leave, go to malaysia, they move there in malaysia don't go to sabah! because the sultan of sulu owns it
