Experience a deeply moving and meaningful journey as you attend the Anzac Day Dawn Service at Sandakan, the very site where the infamous Sandakan Death Marches began during World War II. This emotional commemoration pays tribute to the courage, endurance, and sacrifice of the prisoners of war who lost their lives in one of history’s most tragic events. Standing amidst the quiet dawn, you’ll feel the powerful connection between past and present as you honor their memory alongside fellow travelers and locals who come together in remembrance.
Continue your journey with a visit to the Sandakan Memorial Park, built on the original site of the POW Camp. Here, history comes alive through exhibits, photographs, and memorials that tell the harrowing yet inspiring story of survival and resilience. To balance the day with a touch of nature’s serenity, enjoy a visit to the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, where you can observe mother and baby orangutans up close in their natural habitat. Watching these gentle creatures go about their daily routines offers a heartwarming reminder of life, hope, and renewal — a perfect way to conclude a day that beautifully blends history, remembrance, and the wonders of Borneo’s wildlife.
