Glad you enjoyed it!

[@decTac]

Interesting video, nice horizon and sunset scenery. 👍 Ha ha..the sea smells fishy obviously from those fishing boats..😊

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Right! Relaxing. HAHA super stinky

[@putihputih5447]

Hey Matt😊 thanks for sharing your vlog at KK Sabah☆ there's nice view & night market awesome 🍉🍊🍋🍌🍍🥭🍎🍏. Just review more since you around & the care guy👋

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Yes, sure will! So much to see and experience. :)

[@thewaywardcyclist3992]

we used to row boats backwards like that, it's common here, it's technical reason, you can switch the oar easily left to right and vice versa because of the narrow area you sit. we all know we can't just paddle on one side of a boat unless you want to go in circles.

[@MattReardonVlogs]

HAHA that is accurate. I can understand the logic now

[@akbarohara4982]

the market you were at by the dock is actually called filipino market. the sellers are mostly filipinos but there are also indonesians especially the bugis from the island of sulawesi

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Ahhh I thought so. Cool!

[@Andrew.TYP7265]

If you're looking for some food unique to Sabah, look for Tuaran Mee... it's fried noodles that you can hardly find outside of Sabah. And they are yummy... to me anyway. LOL... Also KK is famous for super fresh seafood noodles. If you Google for fresh seafood noodles, Kota Kinabalu, you will get a list of places well known for them.

[@MattReardonVlogs]

IDK why but your comment was sent to spam for some reason. Next time, i'll have to look for those dishes

[@luhatajang9780]

Hopefully you enjoy it stay in kk. Do come to Sarawak too

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Yes would like to one day

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Around kk there are islands to visit. Not expensive. But do not go to 1 island. Gaya.

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Hahaha i've heard

[@keangwooichoo6138]

@MattReardonVlogs 10k population is filipino refugees from mindanao. Still our gov never kick them back. 3rd generation now. Same story of rohinyas in peninsula. Already 200k. Dangerous for national security of malaysia and of course they compete for jobs.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Sabah has many islands and nature. Many tourists are out there

[@MattReardonVlogs]

True. There are better islands on the eastern side of Sabah

[@keangwooichoo6138]

@Matt Reardon bro the top 10 in this world is sipadan. If you hv the budget next time just do these 4 things in sabah as a bucket list. 1. Climb mount kinabalu 2. Dive at sipadan 3. Sepilok orangutans 4. Kinabatangan river cruise. Look for the big 5 : crocodiles, hornbills, proboscis monkeys, elephants, orangutans. If you are lucky at night, you can see tarsiers too. If you have a bigger budget visit the amazing rainforest of borneo at 1) imbak 2) maliau basin 3) danum valley.

[@acerazak4087]

@@MattReardonVlogs Yes, like in peninsular, most beautiful tropical islands is on the east side, like islands near Semporna. Kota Kinabalu is more well known for its beautiful mountain Kinabalu ⛰, Kundasang etc

[@penukulbesi4006]

I always go to KK the interesting thing about KK is its islands and mountains that you can't find the same as other places in Malaysia

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Ah yes! I want to spend more time to enjoy the natural landscapes

[@bananaflav1916]

Bro .. I didnt see you pick up a lobster and ask them to cook. I think U missed that place. And one more thing on your next video....please dont ask silly question like " is it spicy? This question is for little girl. ok dude 😝😝😝

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Hahaha lobster isn't a cheap meal...no matter where you are. Have to ask about spicy, because if it's not sometimes, I don't want to eat it...and other times I need break from spicy.

[@bananaflav1916]

​@@MattReardonVlogsDon't mix sambal with condensed milk drink like teh tarik. U will immediately suffer stomach ache . I normally avoid these combinations

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Most tourists are Koreans and Europeans.

[@MattReardonVlogs]

yeah I noticed this during my time there

[@keangwooichoo6138]

@@MattReardonVlogs there are direct flights from Korea and China.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Those are refugees yes filipinos. No formal schooling for them stateless.

[@MattReardonVlogs]

Sad situation

[@keangwooichoo6138]

@MattReardonVlogs we cannot provide education for non citizens. Furthermore malaysia never signed any convention regarding refugees by unhcr

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Western food is expensive in malaysia

[@MattReardonVlogs]

That's right! Yeah, I figured some are refugees and what not. But, so many tourists...many Koreans is right.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

@Matt Reardon I do not know why, we took in too many Filipinos(sabah) and rohinyas(peninsula). We do not know how and when to kick them back. They are already having grandchildren here!

[@irishque]

2:30 hope thts unintentional😂...anyway d sad thing abt kk or sabah in general is d poverty plus illegal philipino migrants issue..so u can see places are not well kept dirty..tht market is even called filipino market..hope borneo will be equally developed soon

[@MattReardonVlogs]

HAHA the way she imitated drinking beer 😂😝 Yes, some things need improvements there

[@keangwooichoo6138]

I drank it before. 1664.

[@MattReardonVlogs]

wow

Semoga Sabah Serawak Bisa merdeka sepenuhnya... Jarang Orang Asing mengunjungi Sabah Karena wilayah ini Selalu tidak diperhatikan Semenanjung

[@nurhanaprinting9444]

org mahu thu sabah dan sarawak kna mula dri malaysia dahulu bru sabah dn sarawak... kerana malaysia org x kenal sama juga sabah dan sarawak... merdeka sepenuhnya bukan suda merdeka sama seperti malaysia .. indonesia juga bnyak ada ke diperhatikan oleh orang indoensia ... org travel jarkata bandung surabaya bali lain x de...

[@nurhanaprinting9444]

napa x nmpak tarveler buat psl indoesia ada 2 3 video aja lps tu suda hilang ke negara lain...

[@MattReardonVlogs]

It's also about what is more accessible. There are by far more flights and transportation connecting the peninsula than there are Borneo. When locals and foreigners visit the states of Borneo more in the future, it will become more known for traveling and tourism. Same goes for Sumatra and Sulawesi.
