CHABAI: A Children's Story of a Boy and Dog in Sabah

0/5 ( ratings)

Set in Sabah, a country in Borneo, above the Equator, off the east coast of Malaysia, this is a story about a boy and his dog, Chabai, which means Pepper, and their adventures around the town of Sandakan.

There are no head hunters left in Borneo, but there is a kidnapping by pirates, visits to the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre, the Gomantong Bird Nest Caves, the Kinabalu National Park and a trek to the summit of the highest mountain in South East Asia, the towering 13,600ft high Mount Kinabalu.

The story is peopled with a rich tapestry of colourful Malays, horse-riding Bajaus, seafaring Sulus, forest Ibans and mountain Kedazans, Hakka, Hokkien, Cantonese and Szechuan Chinese; Tamils, Indonesians, Filipinos and a few Europeans, including four English children who live in ‘Newlands’, the house of Agnes Keith, the author of ‘Land Below the Wind’.
