The REAL Sea Gypsies | Discover Sabah, Borneo Ep223
We get a ride on board an ESSCOM military RIB patrol in the pirate seas of Malaysia and meet two sea gypsies who are fishing outside the marine park. Then we go back in our dinghies to say hello to this sea nomad community (aka 'Bajau Laut') living on boats and fragile stilted houses.
