that’s what we did since da second we touched down. so far, we have compared…
da sea:
Sarawak’s like teh-o.
Sabah’s ooh-la-la.
Sabah wins hands down.
Sarawak 0 : 1 Sabah
da people:
(99% of )Sarawakian’s proprietors are rude! they always show us their bloody sullen faces as if we owe them few millions liddat. gek sei.
Sabahans more friendly. as everyone we met is friendly bah 😉
Sarawak 0 : 2 Sabah
da food:
in Sabah, u can see da sign of “serve no pork” in most of da restaurants.
including those chinese restaurants.
in Sarawak, u can have pork everywhere u go. we lurves pork. hence,
Sarawak 1 : 2 Sabah
in Sabah, seafood are dirt cheap.
mee goreng ayam and mee goreng seafood are selling at da same price. and if u think they give u stale seafood. wrong! they serve fresh ones! we had sou mei (蘇眉 /Napoleon Wrasse) when we were in Tawau, fai tit guess how muchy izzit! 160buck per kilo ONLY. daddy told me that it could simply cost up to thousands in peninsular =-O
in Sarawak, u man man deng la. seafood aint fresh and kinda ripped-off too. 😦
Sarawak 1 : 3 Sabah
btw, i miss lada a lot
da lingo:
Sarawak: i cant remember anything except sik ada! =.=
Sabah: i miss all da bah, anu, astaga, si, nadah and siao!
we all know siao = crazy right…but in sabah, siao = sorry.
=-O <– my expression when i first heard this.
u try to say siao after jabbing someone in KL. u will end up very sorry.
Sarawak 1 : 4 Sabah
da hostel:
Sarawak’s hostel: shared bathroom. can’t cook (can cook in secret though). no astro (not even 8tv). no air-cond. hot 😦
Sabah’s house: attached bathroom. can cook. astro installed. no air-cond. like oven during da day.
i miss blaring hitz.tv in da morning to wake myself up. and Da Bing’s culinary show.
where we stayed da past two months
me being couch potato
needless to say,
Sarawak 1 : 5 Sabah
haih, i guess i just miss Sabah so freaking muchy. i will be back (clap) . rest assured. armed with diving license 😉
Sarawakians, don’t sulk la… no offense la…just my pure thoughts…i still lurve u all… must say this if not roomie won’t bring back anything for me 😛
ok done. back to reports.
sarawak is my home.
but sabah will always be a great place to travel. the islands and the mountains, a perfect combination!
i've yet to climb mount KK but planning to do so soon. 😀
Don't you ever set foot to Sarawak anymore, I'm a Sarawakian with sullen face and really bloody as well. Haha.. I have to agree with you that some of the eateries and local stores in Sarawak really need an upgrade on their customer service. Sometimes I feel like banging their head for their reluctance to show their hundred million smile while serving customers. Just be friendly to customers and you will win their heart.
Ya…the sea around Sabah is soooo beautiful! Hey! Sea at Melaka equally bad leh…and lots of oil slicks! Eating places in Sibu much nicer than SOME places in KK/Sabah and a lot cheaper. Seafood in KK nicer…but so expensive! Sandakan's a bit cheaper… As for hostels, you must go to see my daughter's in Sg Petani, Kedah. Dah upgrade from maktab to institute konon! My foot! It is really really BAD!!! B-A-D, bad! And who made it so? The students, I'm sure… Tiada disiplin langsung…and to think that they are going out to be teachers!!! Lord have mercy!
P.S. And that's the girls' hostel that I saw!!! I cannot imagine the boys'…. SIGH!!!
I only agree on the 1st point about sea in sabah is prettier than in sarawak. You have not traveled to every place in sarawak and sabah though to make a complete comparison.
Wow! Sabah vs Sarawak. Interesting and funny this! Wait till I come out with KL vs KK. Haha! 😀
Interesting post haha I miss KK mountain the most.
Never set foot on Sarawak, but my impression of it isn't so great.
Forest in Sarawak is cleared for Bakun dam, blah blah blah…
You haven't mentioned Sabah's Mt Kinabalu and Orang Utan sanctuary yet…
I am always comparing Sabahan and Sarawakian in my blog. Two friends of mine, Chuan and Chris (Sabahan and Sarawakian respectively) always become my topic in blog. "Sabahan's Balls are tougher than Sarawakian, eat that, nah!!" lol
Type "sarawak" in my search box to read related post, lol
Annant, want exchange links ma?
me too me too!!!
but da soonest would be next year =.=
hey u gotta start booking now…
finally a sarawakian see eye to eye with me xD
we always thought how come these proprietors can survive that loong ar?… :@
as conclusion, there's not muchy competition here…try to do that in kl, im 300% u will wongfenghong shao dong in 1month!
😀 lol!
last time when i was in sibu, i didnt really tried local authentic food cos roomie brought me to jap restaurantsss, then home-cooked yummy dinner, then had meals in shopping centre, then yamcha in cafe =.= … hopefully get a chance to visit sibu again and meet u!
im really wondering how BAD can your gal's hostel be? mine here got lotsa stray cats…so geli i loathe cat can!!! then they pee ALL over da place, like in the pantry u say gek sei or not! and some of them are fed with whiskas! siao one!😀 lol!
i can imagine! as i have already seen it!
some are actually pretty decent, but some are 😡
i have traveled to most of the cities in sabah n sarawak…that's why i think i can make a comparison…hey, no offense la sarawakian…
great, i cant wait yo! 😉
means u have already conquer it? wow! next it will be me 😉
didnt mention cos havent conquer it!…orang utan sacntuary, u mean da one in sandakan? then im proud to say that i have stepped foot on it.. xD
