Travel

In Sandakan I was equipped with a local map. After gathering my bearings I was already close to a landmark: the fountain. Close by was the Sandakan Museum off a court opposite the police station so I popped in to have a look around there.

I woke up expecting to get on a push bike and straight to the Orangutan rehabilitation centre but the bikes were not ready yet. I chatted with Lee Kun’s wife, Phui Wan, about my travel plans and she showed me some pictures of her and Lee Kun’s trip to Japan. Read the rest! \(^u^)/ →
