Dive instructor Maadil Nanding said the shots were firedround t 11.3pm

"It could be warning shots from the police not to allow someone or local boats to get close to that resort," he told New Straits Times when contacted.
Maadil, who works with Borneo Divers Mabul Resort, however said they needed to wait until morning to get a clear information.
As of now, situation remained calm on the island.
"At least I think most of the guests (of Borneo Divers) were already in their rooms when the shootings occurred.
"No one panicked," he said, stressing the situation was under control.
Pulau Mabul is a well-known destination among divers. Borneo Divers Mabul Resort is located about 500m from Mabul Water Bungalow Resort.
Security forces have been placed at the island following several kidnap incidents.
The authorities could not be contacted for clarification.

Tutup saja tu Barter Trade sama laluan untuk kapal

P pilipin sana. Ini lah yg menjadi bala bencana untuk sabah dan malaysia. Kita kasi ajar sama dorang. Kita tinguk selama 12 bulan biar dorang makan ubi kayu. Kita sudah lama kasi muka sama dorang. Apa yg dorang balas. Memalukan negara kita saja. Ini mcm jiran pencuri sebelah rumah. Mo kasi biar ka saja. Jangan kasi salah Esscom atau polis, taruh sepuluh ribu jaga ni perairan pun tatap bolos juga. Kasi haram terus ni kapal jenis pump boat, jongkong, kumpit dan speed boat bawak penumpang. Ini la masalah sebenarnya.
