Festival of Sacrifice
Official public holiday in Sabah- end of Hajj.
Very Arabisque-looking, is it not? Very traditional and a vintage piece in the visual perspective sort of way. As far as I know, it’s quite a unique architectural edifice in the whole of Sabah.
Kota Belud is in Sabah.

Highnoon Duet To Serenade Our Love
Borneo vs Malaya - 22 Nov., 2009
Rappers from Borneo & Malaya were set for a ‘Gunfight at the OK Coral’. Be prepared for the rap. Yeah, pump it up and get on down till the moo cow comes to roost- where’s the chick?
Without any further ado, let’s have our very own [...]

Clash of the Bornean Titans
Breakdance Battle of Borneo at 1Borneo Hypermall over the weekend of 21/22 Nov., 2009.
And this ain’t no “White Rajahs vs Japanese Imperial Forces”. Make no mistake about it.

Sea of Angels
Pulau Mamutik is the smallest island among the five islands cluster grouped under Tunku Abdul Rahman Islands (Marine) Park. And it’s also the least crowded island in the group. But during public holidays and weekends you can forget about having the beach all to yourself.

Game For A Laugh
Rugby, a game played by macho men with farcical comedy abound. Once a comedian, always a ruggger. What further proof do we need just by looking at the picture below with the hopper hopping along merrilywith his band of merrymen? Need I say more?

Such Stuff As Dreams Are Made On
Oui! Aquarelle.
Let’s talk about camera, the D-SLR type. Now and then, it does give rise to an illusory image in a shot-visual. When it does, it drives me into a psychotic tailspin.
Wait a minute! I’ve got to get a hold of myself. Ahhh….. such is life’s big mystery.

Trooping the Colour, Borneo Style
Kota Belud, “waaaah!”, the land of horses & buffalos (it could easily be the land of milk & honey). So, here it begins the story of the “Five Horsemen On the Prairie“. First thing first, let’s meet our world-famous horseman of Kota Belud. I have seen pictures of this old gentleman countless [...]

The Warrior Princesses
Move over, you men!
A sport with a difference. It was an action-packed rugby competition full of rough-and-tumble actions interweaved with high tensions and excitements to keep you spellbound to the end of time. This is my kind of action-filled sport with a tinge of sensual tenderness only the she-must-be-obeyed knows how to put on.

Going Japanese
Semporna on the cheap. Then you get a bland, plain and simple scenery. It does pay to be rich, you know.

Celebrate Good Times, Come On!
Asian Rugby Borneo Sevens (30-Oct/01-Nov).
Indonesia Vs Japan – 30 Oct.
The outcome of this match was more or less predicted, barring any twist of fate at the last minute, of course. And it was. Japan won out in the end.

Blazing Saddle
The horses in Kota Belud are often referred to as the pony horses for the reason of their being a crossbreed between the pony and horse. I would still regard them as the pure-bred horses as they do not resemble the pony in any way . Their sizes may just about give the clue [...]

The Swan Song Ballerina & Ballerino
Stretched over two days, 31 oct/1Nov, one of the main highlights of the Rugby match was the classical dance performance executed beautifully by the two players from Malaysia & Thailand. It was an illusion of flight that stretched beyond your vivid imagination, literally speaking. The projectile of flight was simply sensational and [...]

White breasted water hen is its proper name, but I nickname it the road runner for no apparent reason other than it looks slightly just like one.
