Labuan is a Duty Free heaven for alcohol and cigarettes, chocolate...and Labuan is a port for vessels, off shore and rescue boat...and ship repair/daily supplement. Sat and Sun usually fulky booked, it is very difficult to find a vacant room. Many sailor and engineers gone aboard for Pub, Club, and looking for beddies 🤭

Hi Ken....I myself.never been to Labuan. Labuan is a small free duty island belong to Federal Government.Labuan is attractive for locals to buy cheaper item especlally alcohol kind of product becos it is very cheap as compare to other parts of Malaysia.For tourism I think is not that attractive due to lack of thing to do on the island.But no harm to visit once in a life though.Last but not least Blessed Birthday to you.May God.bless and keep you safe no matter where you are.Cheers.

Greeting Ken. I watch your contents and I am from Labuan. Sabah and Labuan was experiencing bad weather the past week. Too bad you were not able to see the beautiful sunrise and sunset on this island. And there are few famous spots and remains in this island that show the end of the WW2. The War Memorial, the surrender point, the coal mine entrance, the ammunition storage etc... As well as the nearby island getaway for snorkeling and diving. Good luck and looking forward to your next video.

@iskandartaib 2 года назад

Those planes are ATR-72s, they're actually quite common in Europe. They're made in France and Italy. if you're looking for places to visit.. I can't think of many - there's The Chimney (a museum), and there's beaches all over the place. Also a wartime cemetery. If you like spectacular rocks you could try Bethune Head in the north of the island, and they're some interesting stuff in the south, too, but maybe you'd have to be a geologist to appreciate the stuff in the south (turbidites). As far as the geology goes - it's a world class destination for sedimentary rocks. Fossils, sedimentary structures, etc., a great place for teaching.

@PrinceRightyI 2 года назад

The only people going to Labuan are the local Labuanese themselves (they are more likely to take the ferry from Sabah instead of flying) international traders (it's an international port), party goers (duty free island, so...) and students (usually matriculation/A-level students). I used to study there for a year. They had water problems so bad I had to shower around a water tap/faucet near the principal's house and in the middle of the college field back then. Not mentioning the legendary bus number 6 😂😂😂

I wonder if you can still get the duty free cigarettes in the shops... I've been in Labuan several times for work (field trips with students - the geology of the island in incredible, especially on the northern and southern coasts - I have lots and lots of photos from back then). Labuan was (probably still is) "duty free" (like Langkawi) so chocolates, cigarettes etc. are much cheaper. Most of the cigarettes were brand you never heard of in your life (my favorite was "Memory" brand) and were ultra cheap (though not as cheap as at the Tatau night market) - maybe RM10-20 a carton of 12 boxes. Since I don't smoke you probably wonder what I bought them for - I guess it was more of a joke than anything - I had an Australian friend who smoked like a chimney, he'd buy Mild Seven cigarettes in KL and they were getting more and more expensive every year. So I'd bring him cartons of these off-brand cigarettes from Labuan every year (and we all sat around and made sure he actually smoked them). And I asked him one day, when someone gives you Memory brand cigarettes, what were you supposed to say? "Thanks for the Memories". He gave me a really dirty look but couldn't help grinning... 🤣🤣🤣

@VictorPeter 2 года назад

Labuan is not to be compared to Langkawi despite both are so-called tax haven. I've been there, and a quick 2-3 hrs round the island on a mbike is more than enough. Langkawi is well-curated for travellers. Best to focus on Sabah and then Brunei before head to Indonesia.

@elviraevitaerich1050 2 года назад

Heyy, Im a local from labuan. Yes it's indeed a small island. So what did most of the local do are actually goin to beaches, which is usually active on the weekends, saturday and sunday. You can also choose to do sports, such as hiking trails, picnics and bike ridings ( this you could find it in seasport😂. it's a so-so facility i would say). And most of y'all know that it's a taxes free spot, so yes people would buy chocolates, cigg and even alcohol beverages from here. I would also like to add, the alcohol drinks here are cheaper as compared to other places. So, you might wanna try out the night live in labuan. Have some drinks and just enjoy.😆 Yes, it's a small island, not much to do here with only 1 mall ( the Financial park) and etc. Anyway I'm still a proud labuanian, love it. It's a small island to distress from the busy cities, my home🥰 🥂

@dennischuaeowseong6565 2 года назад

i love labuan. peaceful island and the beaches used to be much cleaner. that was before covid-19. multi racial paradise. good tourist attractions like the chimney and the japanese peace park. nice seafood. it is not part of sarawak or sabah and it used to be a separate british colony. but after world war 2 it was put into sabah by king george 6 of the UK. in 1984 it joined the federal territories together with kuala lumpur and putrajaya.

The restaurant thats closed is anjung ikan bakar.. its open late evening until night. Labuan famous for offshore industry .. not for tourism. Many foreigners come to labuan for working in oil and gases sector as well as shipping sector. Labuan also hub for offshore banking in Malaysia.. some places you can go in labuan are chimney museum, bird park, marine museum, war memorial, ums beach, batu manikar beach, taman damai, desa tunas hijau

@saschannel810 2 года назад

Labuan is a small island (92 km²) but bigger than Putrajaya (49 km²). It was made into an offshore financial hub in the 1990. The best thing to do there, in my opinion, is to walk along the Tanjung Kubong trail from the chimney museum and enjoy the geological formations along the sea up to the tip of Tanjung Kubong. Another fun thing is to take a speedboat/ferry to various destinations such as Menumbok, Brunei, Kota Kinabalu, Lawas, Sipitang, and Limbang. Beaches are not at their best because of offshore oil and gas activities. Many people visit Labuan in search of cheap alcohol.

The Islands are part of the Orkneys Group and are called Westray and Papa Westray. The flight from take-off to touchdown is 80 SECONDS. The distance is 1.7 miles (2.8 kms). Note- It is a Regular Commercial Flight. 30 Minutes is not short, London Heathrow to Manchester is only 35 minutes and is approx 200 miles. I didn't see anything that would create a desire to visit that Island and I can understand you not being inclined to return, I think it's probably mostly Local People only.

Unless you're wearing perhaps Gucci-Hermes, YSL tie, white-collar local or international bankers, investment execs totting branded-brief cases stashed with millions$$$, appointments set with off-shore banks, global investment players who fly-in on private exec jets you're def in the wrong place! Been in/out Labuan of O&G biz mtgs. Should've done better hmwk Ken. Anyhow, gd you've had so-so grt experience there. So bemused of u complaining momentary discomfort of small airplane and loud noises. Doesnt cone across adventurous at heart. Probly African continent may not be ur cupoftea? For sure, Labuan wouldn't miss u if no return visit unless u carry bagful of millions🤣.

Labuan is basically a quick gateway for Brunei tourists and oil rig workers for some 'action' and booze. Nothing much to it except maybe the duty free liquor, chocolates and seafood.

One thing common I notice with RU-vid travellers. Maybe it’s a conincidence or something but I do notice most of them hook up with a China girl or China girl love to find opportunities to hook with the travellers..😀😀

visited the island numerous of time, but the recent visit get me extra cost than before. food is not cheaper than RM8.00 per serving in town, even a bowl of noodle will tear RM20.00 from your pocket. Maybe for next trip will just take cup noodles for meal

Looks like you missed many of the sites to see and good seafood outlets. For a day trip and on a working day, Labuan tourism activities will be pretty quiet as the population is mainly in the O & G and financial sector. Most Labuan people enjoy their weekend at the beach with outdoor activities and fresh seafood. Anywhere, thanks for visiting Labuan island. As shared by others, a walk-in without knowing where, what and when would normally disappoint most.

Labuan used to belong to Sabah. It was sold to the Federal Gov sometime back in the 80s.

Labuan isn't a vacation destination, we use it as a banking/incorporation hub and offshore banking. If you think Labuan is boring, image having to go for work and spending 7 days quarantined in the same hotel you were in? 😂

You should have choose to go Mulu Caves world largest cave 20 min flight from Miri and going up highland into the Kelabit Highland further up from Mulu or 45 min flight Miri

Its more of a business place. Not really a tourist place.

If Labuan under paninsular but why people then don,t using passport to come to Sabah island...eh Sabah is island or not

@wendyshoowaiching4161 2 года назад

It's a boring island, no economic infrastructure developed, bad tourists & food destination. Beach not clean and infra attractive.
