Flew back to Sabah this morning after taking a rest of 2 weeks. Had been reading lots of news from the internet, both local & foreign. Our farm is located on the western side of Sabah, while the 'Red Zone', Lahad Datu is on the eastern side of Sabah, which is about 200 Km away.
Left LCCT, Sepang this morning, there were some delays for flights to Sarawak. Heard it through the annoucement. My flight was on schedule, but were delayed for a while on the runway. Guess the air traffic could be heavy.
Upon reaching Kota Kinabalu, things looks normal. The usual Policemen were on guard. The passengers at Terminal 2 looks a bit less, both for arrival and departure. Notice that there were less people and less activities in the city. Only managed to see a couple of Caucasian tourist. Even the immigrants that use to be in the thousands are not in sight. We shall need to bring back the tourist as next year is visit Malaysia year. The locals are still all around doing their normal daily chores. There is no rush in the supermarket, petrol station and banks. Infact I think the activities is less as compared to normal days. Kota Kinabalu is definitely still safe.
Reached Keningau town in the evening, things here is the same as in Kota Kinabalu. The coffee shop that I normally patronize, is full.
Let's pray that this sad episode shall past by with minimum casualty quickly. Pray for the defenders of our nation, for their safe return, home to their love ones.
