Leisure: You Are True Sabahan or Not?!
Papaadmin June 5th, 2007 | Viewed 889 views
This list has been going around among us Sabahan but I want to list it again here for all to know and of course to add my own version of it.
1. You drive at right lane of the road, with a speed of only 50 KM/H. If people horn behind you, you still don’t know what’s wrong.
This is the attitude that I hate most. Make sure you are not driving like this. I tell you straight, If I got lorry I hit you!!!
2. You have the luxury of working from 8 AM to 5 PM (get off work punctually).
I work on shift. Start at 9:30am and end till 8pm
3. You don’t believe that there is any “clean” politician in Sabah.
I believe there is no ‘clean’ politician in any state
4. You feel “obligated” to reach the top of Mount Kinabalu at least once in a lifetime.
Yea, I reached the peak 5 times already!
5. You prefer a big car than a big house (probably you can’t drive a big house around to show off).
Not me! I want both
6. You wear slipper and short wherever you go, even in city.
Yea, hehehe, even in city… jadi? pakai neck tie??
7. You still think that Labuan belongs to Sabah.
Well, hmm…. yeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
8. You will not go to any FREE seminar / function that has no food or refreshment.
Yea, I admit..hahahaha
9. You don’t care about service. You just want things cheap, cheap, cheap.
Hahhaha. I admit. Sometimes…kekeke
10. You know where to get your candles and torch light quickly in the total darkness (due to training by frequent blackout).
Ya Bah! Apalah, kalau minta bayar mau capat saja!
11. You know what “aramaitiee” means…
OH YESSS!!! Of course!
12. You shout “referee bodoh” and at the same time throw mineral water bottles on the pitch during a football match at Likas stadium..
Hmmmm …. I was not there, ok
13. Your Timorese maid ran away with her lover, taking your money or jewellery along..
Happen most of the time
14. You doubt someone’s mykad wether it is real or fake..
Definitely. Here… even the real local kena tahan.
15. Your favourite assemblyman whom you vote and supported all this while…gambled away and lost a whopping 60 million ringgit in a London casino..
Hahahaa. Cilaka dia!
16. You go inside a karaoke at 12 pm and realise that the place is still open at 5 am…
Some dont even close
17. You come across a supposedly local person but with a very foreign accent..
Happen all the time …
18. You cannot vote in an election because someone has voted on behalf of you…
Hahhaha. Yep. Too many phantom voters. Never happen to me though coz of my unique details
19. You own a bakakuk
I wish, but don’t bring it to the Penampang donggongon library.
pssst: the story was one young gengster got killed behind the library
Honestly speaking, sadly some are true.

Eh, whats the problem with driving 50km/h, safe wat! LOL
Not that I do but why is this limited to Sabahan only? You know Kuala Belait & Seria people have that honour, some of them drive super careful here!
June 5th, 2007 at 7:58 pm
Err, I too believe there are no clean politicians in any state
June 5th, 2007 at 8:50 pm
arrr…… wat’s aramaitiee?? obviously i am not sabahan, but i’ve been brought up to LURVE the ikan masin!

If somebody is really clean, they wouldn’t even go into politics lah!
It’s like asking, “Can you find angels in hell?”
Everyone knows all politicians, regardless of party, go to hell anyway.

Hi, it’s my 1st time in your blog. I’m a Sabahan but I’ve never heard Aramaiti and bakakuk. LOL!!! I don’t drive 50km/h but less than 90km/h. I never ever conquer Mt Kinabalu but I do know where to look for the candles during blackout. We even have a generator set an home stand-by for it. I have a love-and-hate relationship with Sabah.
June 9th, 2007 at 10:26 am
April Wong- Love-hate relationship? I seldom hear that from a Sabahan before about Sabah. You left Sabah a very long time ago ka?
