LABUAN
located in the South China Sea, about 8 km off the coast of Sabah
is a charming island port and Malaysia's only deep-water anchorage.
Seen from the air, Labuan has often been likened to a star floating
on a turquoise sea.
Once a part of the Sultanate of Brunei, it was ceded to the British
in 1846 following the discovery of rich coal deposits. Ruled by the
British for 115 years, it joined the Federation of Malaysia in 1963.
Subsequently, in February 1984, Labuan was declared a federal territory.
A thriving duty-free port and international offshore financial centre,
Labuan has developed into an important venue for business and commerce.
The island offers several excellent hotels and international venues
for meetings, conventions and trade exhibitions. |

Places of interest in Labuan include the Botanical
Garden dating back to the colonial days, the beautifully landscaped
War Memorial, the Peace Park, Kampung Ayer, Labuan's traditional water
village and the Chimney at Tanjung Kubong, a reminder of the old coal-mining
days. For golf enthusiasts, there is the Labuan Golf & Country
Club which boasts of one of the country's finest nine-hole courses.

Expeditions
can be arranged to the island's four most popular wrecks, the American,
Australian, Blue Water and Cement wrecks. If you are seeking seclusion,
the outlying islands of Pulau Papan and Pulau Burong provide the
right ambience and are just minutes away by speedboat.
