If you like nature, Sandakan is an interesting place to walk round during your trip to Malaysia. It has turtles, orang-utan, proboscis and other endemic monkeys...
My suggestion
At first sight the town itself doesn't seem very interesting but once you get out you will be amazed how many things there are to see.

Sandakan, as the second most important town of Sabah state, enjoys a strategic position for tourism.
My suggestion
The restaurants to be found on the pedestrian street by the seaside, right next to the shopping centre, offer tasty dishes with a pleasant view and atmosphere at very reasonable prices.
The western coast islands, less popular than the those on the oriental coast, will delight the visitors who venture there. Easily accessible from Kuala Lumpur, they present a diversity of landscapes and auras as well as a rich cultural heritage.
Malaysia is a surprising country in every way. And the cluster of lakes linked to one another that go by the name of Tasik Chini will definitely live up to expectations! If this is not the case, then maybe the lake's monster will leave you speechless; rumour has it that it haunts the depths!
