Msgr. Nicholas Ong blessed the crib before the Eucharistic celebration which began at 9pm.

Gabriel Nunang, head of the Indonesian Catholic community of Tawau parish. The parish is one of four in Sandakan diocese in Sabah.

The priests give them moral support.

The Church prepares programs for us to develop our faith and also helps us access various civic and rights groups to deal with their many challenges.


The Indonesian community is integrated with the local people in Tawau. They are actively involved in parish programs and activities. Local parishioners treat them as equal partners

Indonesians come to Malaysia earn a better living, and the existence of Timorese Indonesians in Sabah is attracting more Timorese. The similarity between the Malay and Indonesian languages makes communication easy.

One problem that still needs attention is schooling. Migrants’ children can only go to private schools, which are expensive.
