People of the Sea in Sabah

I was just browsing through some of my picture when I saw these pictures I randomly took when I was in Sabah end of year 2008. I took the pictures below as I was slowly driving along the coastal area.


Look at these stilts houses. They are built on top of water that reminds my of my trip to Ranong, Thailand. With basic aminities, the live their life.

These people are the Bajau, who live by the sea and also earn their living by being a fisherman. However, sad to see the condition of their houses.

I think this hut speaks a lot. In contrast to the living condition, the grand hotel at the back is just located few kilometers away.
What as a developing nation, we can do for them?
