Sabah, Malaysia

3:49 AM |

        
                Sabah is one of the thirteen states in Malaysia. Its capital is Kota Kinabalu. Sabah  is known as "Sabah, negeri di bawah bayu", which means "Sabah, the land below the wind." That is the name because it is located at the south of the typhoon belt. 




               
              This the flag of Sabah. The first one represents "a silhoutte of Mount Kinabalu represents Sabah State."The second one which is zircon blue, represents peace and calmness. The third one which is icicle blue represents unity and prosperity. The fourth one which is royal blue represents strength and harmony. The fifth one which is pure white represents purity and justice. The last one which is chili red represents courage and determination. 






             Staying in Sabah is just like staying in the Philippines (though this land is really ours). This place is mountainous and it also has the tallest mountain in Southeast Asia which is Mount Kinabalu. The mountain and hills are covered with rainforest. There are also parks and jungles in this state. Missionaries who would go here wont have a hard time adjusting to this state if they are from Southeast Asia. If the missionaries are filipinos, we need to pray for them since filipinos are abused and not treated by others well. Nevertheless, we should pray for all missionaries there. God has a plan for them. We must support them by praying for them.
