Xianben, what is that place?

Semporna is a county in Douhu City, Sabah, located on the east coast of Sabah, Malaysia.

Semporna literally means "perfection" in Bayao and Malay. In the early days, Bayao people took boats as their home, and most of them lived along the coast or built houses on shallow rocks. As always, they inherited their traditional custom of loving the sea as their home.

Semporna has a typical tropical climate. The temperature is relatively high, and there is a lot of precipitation all year round, but it will be obviously cooler at night. The temperature here does not change much throughout the year, and there is no obvious seasonal change.

Every April, Semporna holds a regatta. All kinds of traditional ships will sail to the town to compete for prizes. This activity is a unique festival for the Ba Yao people. Locals call it "lepalepa", and Chinese translation is "Floating Boat Festival".
