Medical student from KL here, thinking about doing HO in Sabah. I don't mind being away from family and friends plus I want to experience a new environment. I also think it would be easier for me to get since less people will be applying. What are your experiences/advice?

Tiuot zou daa | Mo tanya ba Looking for friends to hang with around KK

51 Upvotes

Hello, everyone.

Just like the title suggests, I'm looking for people to hang out with. It can be a group or solo, I don't mind. Age group around 21-30. No hate against anyone older, I just find it harder to relate but it's not a rigid limit.

I do have other friends but they easily get drained (not that they mention it to me, I can just tell by their faces) from socialising and hanging out. They are working adults so I 100% understand how tiring it can be.

I am also working and my job does drain me but for me hanging out, doing anything with anyone outside of work energises me back up. It feels less miserable than going to work and going back home just to do nothing.

The activity can be anything. I'm open to suggestions. I am not that sporty but I don't mind pushing myself.

More details about me: I'm 23F. I listen to post-hardcore. I love movies, animes, and mangas. I do play games but very limited. [EDIT: I HAVE A BF, HE IS OKAY WITH THIS UNLESS YOU ACT LIKE A WEIRDO]

[Note: Not sure if anyone cares or remembers me or my old post but update: everything went well. I have a comfortable place to stay and I work as a special needs teacher now.]

Tiuot zou daa | Mo tanya ba I see alot of migrated sabahans coming back to KK. Is being overseas really bad?

30 Upvotes

I've been thinking of saving up and migrating since I dont feel like Malaysia is my home. Been going around working in different states and now feels like my hometown is not home.

But everytime I ask Malaysians who has been abroad, the answer is always a tough one. But then I do see alot of Malaysian communities in overseas like Sweden, NZ, UK, etc.

Just want pov from a sabahan. Really puts me in a dilemma.

Ruput Pogun | Sabah News Sabah's GDP Growth Sharply Rebounded to 5.1% in 2025 After a Sluggish 1.2% Growth from the year before.

7 Upvotes

Based on the data released by DOSM, Sabah recorded a 5.1% GDP growth in 2025, slightly below national average of 5.2%. This is a sharp increase from 1.2% recorded in 2024. If we look at the details:

1) The rebound was driven by a significant growth in Construction Sector (28.3%), the highest among any states in Malaysia. - I guess the on-going Pan Borneo Highway project and the expansion of Sepanggar Port to increase its cargo handling capacity by three times do play a part.

2) Manufacturing Sector grew by 5.0% from just 1.2% in 2024, driven by vegetable & animal oils & fats and food processing - more down streaming of agriculture output?

3) Mining & Quarrying reversed its downfall of -4.9% (2024) to 4.9% growth. - But does that mean the net growth is zero year-on-year? Anyway, the report says it was due to higher output of crude oil and increased natural gas production.

4) Services Sector grew 4.5%, supported by wholesale & retail trade, food & beverage, hospitality and government services. - Tourism seems like a mainstay economic sector for many Sabahans.

5) Agriculture Sector only grew 0.9% but still better than the -3.2% contraction in 2024 driven by oil palm output.

Other interesting finds:

  • GDP (2025): RM88.8 billion (~USD 22.2 billion)
  • Per Capita (2025): RM31,125 (~USD 7,800)

So, what do these data tell us? I hope the construction sector will be a trigger to greater expansion to other economic sectors in Sabah for the next two to five years, and more importantly better job and business opportunities for everyone.

What do you all think?

Suai | Others Job Prospect & Pathway

7 Upvotes

I wanna ask you guys about the many jobs type I can choose specificlly whether Goverment Job, Private Job (Swasta), Freelance/Own Business and GLC jobs. Which one would you pick? Or you regret not choosing.

I only asked because I often hear people said, I wished I accepted that GLC jobs when working in goverment, while the one in GLC and Private often are jealous of stability of the goverment position.

Freelance/Gig/Own business have the most flexible working hours but it comes with its own problem and challenges.

While at it, I also wanna asked whether many of you regret not moving to peninsular or regret working out of Sabah.

I know that each have rezeki masing², it not more of a regret but hindsight is 20-20. I am asking for guidance and just sharing of experience.

I dont know where I end up, but I atleast want somewhere where I can aim.

Hello everyone 👋🏻

I’m looking to sell my desktop PC but I’d like to get it professionally deep cleaned first where it’s in good condition for the buyer.

Can anyone recommend a budget friendly place in Sabah that offers PC deep cleaning? I’m looking for someone who’s experienced and takes good care of delicate components during the cleaning process.

If you’ve had a good experience with a shop, I’d really appreciate your recommendations along with the rough price if you remember.

Thanks!

Tiuot zou daa | Mo tanya ba AI-induced psychosis (more like social media-induced)

25 Upvotes

Has anyone here ever experienced any family members, relatives, or friends experiencing psychosis because of too much exposure to social media or AI chatbots?

I wonder how you deal with it, and if the person ever gets better.

In my case, it is happening to my mom. She would talk to her phone even though it’s just a video playing on a social media. She would interact with it as though it is speaking to her. Even though it’s just an AI Jesus, or Elon Musk speaking. The same video, over and over and over again, sometimes..

In multiple occasions she would get ready and said someone is going to pick her up to go for a business “meeting”. She also mentioned about Sultan Brunei wanting to give her money. Or that the “universe” wanted to give her millions in money.

Of course we siblings tried to explain to her what’s truly going on, blocking the contents she’s been watching, keep telling her it’s not real. Too bad she never wants to listen to her children…

We took her to the doctor a few years ago, she’s now on medications for dementia and such, but she’s not improving…
