Me and Husana at Surender point Labuan
Tempat pertamaa yang kami lawati ialah tempat surender point Labuan, Jap nak google info jap "Peace Park marks the site where the 32nd Japanese Southern Army
surrendered to the 9th Division Australian Imperial Forces towards the
end of World War II, on 9th September 1945. The Japanese arrived at Labuan
on 1st January 1942, less than a month after they began their campaign
in Malaya, landing at Kota Baru and taking formal possession of the
island on 3rd January, after facing no resistance. Surrender Point is located along Layang-layangan beach"
Kejap jer kami kat sini .. pusing2 ambik gambar kami terus ke destinasi yg seterusnye .. "The Chimney" di Tanjung Kubong. okey jap nak google info
"Situated on a rise at Tanjung Kubong is the famous ‘Chimney’, a 106 feet high red brick stack believed to be linked to the coal mining days of Labuan. The Chimney,
106 feet tall, was made from more than 23,000 pieces of red bricks
imported from ngland. The bricks layering and works are typical of
British style.
The ‘ Chimney’ was long thought to be nothing more than a ventilation shaft. However, recent findings revealed that there were no traces of smokes or burning to suggest its use as a chimney as popularly believed. Careful digging has revealed at least 12 layers of bricks beneath the surface. The structure sits firmly on a large tract of limestone rock containing rich kaolin or porcelain clay, which provided the strong foundation.
The ‘ Chimney’ is still very much a mystery until today. Various hypothesis has been put forward to its purpose. Some said it was an unfinished mansion. While others said it was a light house beaconing passing ships. In its heyday, a thriving settlement was built at the sea front area below the Chimney. It was then used as a bell tower to announce the arrival of ships to the residents below. It has become an intriguing riddle that fascinates locals and visitors alike."
