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 🤭

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🥰 🥂

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.

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

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 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 😂😂😂

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.

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.

Labuan is definitely not a holiday or tourist destination. It’s an offshore financial centre offering international financial & business services. It’s where the ultra rich people of Asia park their money coz it’s a tax free haven and also a duty free island. East Malaysians will usually go there just to buy cheap booze, chocolates & ciggies 😂 Most of the Labuan locals and expats living there are working in the oil & gas and financial sectors.

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... 🤣🤣🤣

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.

If you're still in Labuan you can try to visit Bird park, Chimneys (next to bird park) and Marine Museum. For fresh and delicious seafood you can try Anjung Ketam. Other than that, nothing much in Labuan.

You are right. 😆 On the positive side... now you have set foot on every FTs in Malaysia. You could always go to the war memorial... if you like... 14:18 Labuan used to be part of Sabah until it was given up as an FT. But that's another story for another day... 20:08 No worries, Ken. 😆 I doubt you're the first to say that. 😂 My last visit was in the late 90s. You want a nice adventure? Use the boat and go to Kuala Penyu and then head to Beaufort for a train ride to KK. 😁

hye ken. what a nice video! anyway i myself did a solo trip to labuan back in 2019 and i did enjoy the trip. yes i must agrew with you that labuan has nothing much to offer but but i bet there might be hidden gems that you might discover. u should try : eat fish noodle for breakfast . i forgot tje name of the restaurant. ask the local its quite a popular spot. eat tuna satay. i tried this at a food bazar near shell /ujana building. it was delicious and sometimes i still kept thinking of it. go to the chimney museum. its nothing much there but there is a hidden path that lead you to the beach which is the tip of the labuan. it also has small bird park nearby. try a stay at a resort near the chimney museum. it was beautiful and also has its private beach. the sunset was gorgeous. try visit a floating village. i forgot the name. if you can drive , you should try driving at night and go to the oil reilfinery area. u can see the building full of light and fire felt like a starwars city(sorry im such a nerd) believe if or not my dear friend, i wish one day i could visit labuan again. i will. 😀

I must admit that it is quite boring to be here for to long when you have nothing to explore....I was born here in 1997 me and my family living here til i was in the age of 5 my dad had new job somewhere in Sabah but few years later in 2010 we move here again I've study and work here until 2018 go back to sabah again,again in 2021 i got a job offer back in this island ....What most of us like about labuan is this is such a small Island so you wont get tired of driving or riding here also for me this Island is special because saving money in this island is much easier than any other places in Malaysia....

Labuan - big mistake :) People go to Labuan only for work (petroleum oil field). Also it is a tax free place. It is all about earning $ not for play buddy :)

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

Well yes, kind of agree, nothing much can do except working, despite some tourists attraction offerred at Labuan island, still can't get enough....I came & stayed/work there exactly 2 years. Can't compare with Langkawi Island which also tax haven in terms traffic tourism.

That was not a short flight Ken, not even close to being short. The shortest Commercial Flight is between two Islands off the coast of Scotland. 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.

Labuan is definitely not a holiday or tourist destination. It’s an offshore financial centre offering international financial & business services. It’s where the ultra rich people of Asia park their money coz it’s a tax free haven and also a duty free island. East Malaysians will usually go there just to buy cheap booze, chocolates & ciggies 😂 Most of the Labuan locals and expats living there are working in the oil & gas and financial sectors.
