Sabah

Sabah () is Malaysia's easternmost state, one of two Malaysian states on the island of Borneo. It is also one of the founding members of the Malaysian federation alongside Sarawak, Singapore (expelled in 1965) and the Federation of Malaya. Like Sarawak, this territory has an autonomous law especially in immigration which differentiates it from the rest of the Malaysian Peninsula states. It is located on the northern portion of the island of Borneo and known as the second largest state in the country after Sarawak, which it borders on its southwest. It shares a maritime border with the Federal Territory of Labuan on the west and with the Philippines to the north and northeast. The state's only international border is with the province of North Kalimantan of Indonesia in the south. The capital of Sabah is Kota Kinabalu, formerly known as Jesselton. Sabah is often referred to as the "Land Below The Wind", a phrase used by seafarers in the past to describe lands south of the typhoon belt.
== Etymology ==
The origin of the name ''Sabah'' is uncertain, and there are many theories that have arisen. One theory is that during the time it was part of the Bruneian Sultanate, it was referred to as ''Saba'' because of the presence of ''pisang saba'', a type of banana, found on the coasts of the region. Due to the location of Sabah in relation to Brunei, it has been suggested that ''Sabah'' was a Bruneian Malay word meaning upstream or the northern side of the river. Another theory suggests that it came from the Malay word ''sabak'' which means a place where palm sugar is extracted. ''Sabah'' ('صباح') is also an Arabic word which means sunrise. The presence of multiple theories makes it difficult to pinpoint the true origin of the name.
It has been said that Sabah was once referred to as ''Seludang'' in a 1365 Javanese text known as Nagarakretagama written by Mpu Prapanca.
