Next is the population in Tuaran. Tuaran
is very popular with the Lotud ethnic subgroup as well as Bajau descent.
Besides, I
really like their traditional costume.
Look at
the striking colour! I love it but unfortunately I didn’t get a chance to wear
them. Maybe one day I will grab my chance because it's good to try something new.
This place is so nice to take picture. You will fall in love with
your own photos. For your information, the Bajau people is very popular with “cowboy”
because it is a part of their culture.
Nature has
always been my favourite to relax. Love this to the max!
Oh, I love their language too. It’s very different from mine but I
love to listen to them especially the accent. “Eyen abar?” is the only word
that I can remember. You can learn better than me.
What's next?
What comes in your mind when you read TAMU @ MARKET?
Fact about Sabahan people, we called “pasar” as “tamu”. So, you
are highly recommended to use this word when you want to visit any markets in
Sabah.
TAMU
TUARAN @ TUARAN MARKET is the most awaited by visitors or tourists. Fun
fact, the local people also excited about this “tamu” (I’m one of them). Let me
tell you about it. Tuaran market is actually started on Saturday but it’s best
to come on Sunday because there are more choices plus a lot of people will be
there. These are the things that you can see at Tuaran market:
- Sabahan Vegetables ( “paku pakis, sayur manis,
sayur losun, pucuk ubi, pucuk betik, labu air, batang keladi, sayur dukaruk,
sayur tutan ”) and more
- Traditional foods (“Tuhau, bambangan, linatok,
bosou, linopot, lada putih, kodop)” and more
- Sabahan fruits (“bambangan, tarap, buah tampoi”)
and more
- Sabahan Traditional costumes ( mostly Dusun
costume)
- Bundle clothes
- Flowers
- Seafoods (“ikan basung”) and more
My favourite food "Sayur losun"
f
One more special thing about Tuaran market is the diversity of
people. TRUE FACT about Sabahan people is we are always stand as one regardless
of everything. One of the reasons why people like to go to Sabah. Peace
everyone!
I’ve always wanted to come back to Tuaran
just to enjoy these amazing things. There’s a lot more to discover such as peak
of hope, Crocodile farm, Borneo Ant house, Tuaran Panorama view, Linangkit
Cultural Village, Sambah river cruise, Lotud museum, Tembara river cruise and
more. You may google all these on your own.
Last but not least, I would like to
share my poem about Tuaran.
My heart is captured by the beauty of
you
A place that holds a thousand memories
Memories of family, friends and special
one
How could I say good bye to you
When my heart is locked forever with
you
My heart is captured by the beauty of
you
Screaming your name is all I wanted to
do
I don’t want to say but I have to
I am going to miss everything about
you
My heart is captured by the beauty of
you
I will always have a special place for
you
Knowing that nothing can beat you
I will see you when I see you
With this, I end my writing here with
lots of love.
