Sikuati Town Campaign: A Pictorial Part 2

Here's the long overdue pictorial sequel..

The day after, we woke to a beautiful morning, warm sun and scenic ocean view

This is a close-up of a decorative palm tree around the hotel compound.. well okay I can't resist the temptation to snap 'em with fusion of lively colour, nature at it's very best.

Here's another fast forward for ya. After our court proceeding where there's a marathon of 7 summons cases we went straight to work (no photo taking is allowed in Court). Seen here our officer in half of the formal court attire ie in black and white. We have to lose the suit jacket though, it was pretty hot and humid.

Sikuati town consist of a row of commercial shops, a wet market and some market stalls, a standard staple in interior Sabah. As usual sundry shops are thriving, selling everything under the sun. Seen here a retailer's education campaign briefing session.

The small township is such laid back that a shop owner was manning his shop half naked ie. in his shorts and slippers and nothing else. The man actually greeted us as 'Cikgu' or teacher in Bahasa Malaysia before we introduced ourselves as enforcement officer. Maybe it's because of the black and white attire thingy. All in all the overall knowledge on registered health product is quite satisfactory here in Sikuati. One of the shop proprietor even asked the consequences of selling / possessing unregistered product before we even get to the penalty part. We solemnly informed him that it's a fine not more than RM25,000 or jail sentence of not more than 3 years or both. After covering 8 shops, we wrap it up and went back to Kota Kinabalu.

Sikuati Township Campaign: A Pictorial

Here's a pictorial of our education campaign at Sikuati town from the beginning of the journey to the closure of the campaign

Wisma Sabah a historic building situated at one of the city main entrance, we are almost exiting the city perimeter

The roudabout near Yayasan Sabah.. yep we are definately exiting the city..

This may look like a humble abode to some.. but actually it is a sundry shop smack right near the roadside near Menggatal-Sepanggar area. Where there is medicine we stop by for a check
Fast forward aftter passing by Tuaran we encountered this unique premise. It sure gives a new dimension to the term 'shop house'. Extreme right is the house on stilts for residence and ground floor is the sundry shop connected to the roadside by a bridge structure..

Another of the shop house minus the bridge structure plus a cow and a motorbike

Freshly planted paddy field along the way.. beautiful green carpet

It is a long way to go.. look at the blue cloudy sky

Oopps I spoke to soon, it looks like the sky is about to fall on us...

It sure looks like a storm is brewing.. maybe we can outrun it

Hooray... we sure did outrun it.. hey look a hill clearance... illegally done? Nobody knows..

Look at the destruction....

A damaged road strecth along the way...

Careful there now.. we don't want any untoward incidence to happen..

Another damaged road strecth ahead..

Another sundry shop with local produce and handycraft.. we gotta check 'em all


How long has that been.. it's almost lunch.. now where's that energy bar when you need them?

Another 70km to go..

Fast forward.. after having lunch we got down straight to bussiness. Well okay it's not actually in Sikuati but in Kudat town.

Mum is out and the daugther has the shop all to herself. She's quite smart for her age. We left some educational material for her mom. It has been a long day.. dealings in the District Council and 4 inspections we are ready to call it a day. Next stop is the Court proceeding in Kudat Magistrate Court followed by the Sikuati campaign. Stay tuned.
