3rd largest town in the state with 160,000 people. It’s like an outpost to
me, the wild frontier where Malaysia meets Indonesia meets the Philippines.
So one weekend of March ‘07, I packed my bag and 7 of my kins for a quickie
to Tawau and its sidekick, Semporna, at the very eastern edge of Malaysia.
We have chosen to bunk at this old-ish budget Hotel Tawau,
along Chester Road in old town, run by the owner himself, the affable Mr
George Chang. He says his uncle started up this hotel in the 50s. Spartan,
but spacious rooms.........
