Tarakan, North Kalimantan
Tarakan, located on Tarakan Island is one of the major cities in northern Borneo, just across the border from Sabah, Malaysia. Once a major oil producing region during the colonial period, Tarakan had great strategic importance during the Pacific War and was among the first Japanese targets early in the war. It is the sole city within the newly established (in 2012) Indonesian province of North Kalimantan.
== Etymology ==
The name Tarakan comes from the Tidung language: ''Tarak'' (''meeting place'') and ''ngakan'' (''to eat''); thus Tarakan was originally a meeting place for sailors and traders in the Tidung area to eat, rest and trade their catch.
