Lucky Go: Sabah’s First 100% Local E-Hailing App, Redefining Fairness and Community-Driven Mobility

-

Sabah, Malaysia — Lucky Go officially enters the e-hailing landscape as Sabah’s first 100% locally developed e-hailing platform, setting a new benchmark for fairness, transparency, and community-first innovation.

Built by Sabahans, for Sabahans, Lucky Go is designed with a clear mission: to empower local drivers while delivering safe, comfortable, and reliable rides for passengers across the state. At the core of this mission is a bold yet simple promise — a fixed RM1 commission per trip, regardless of ride fare.

Unlike conventional commission-based models, Lucky Go’s flat-fee structure allows drivers to retain more of their earnings, encouraging sustainability and long-term participation within the platform. This approach not only benefits drivers, but also elevates service quality for passengers, fostering a more accountable and people-focused e-hailing experience.

“ When drivers earn fairly, service naturally improves. Lucky Go is built on that belief, creating a platform where everyone benefits — drivers, passengers, and the wider Sabahan community.”

More than just a transportation app, Lucky Go represents a movement toward locally rooted innovation. By keeping earnings within Sabah and prioritising community welfare, the platform supports economic circulation at home while embracing modern mobility standards.

Lucky Go remains committed to:

  • Fair driver earnings through a transparent RM1 commission model

  • Passenger safety and comfort across every journey

  • Local empowerment by reinvesting value within Sabah

As Sabah continues to grow and evolve, Lucky Go positions itself as a homegrown solution that understands the rhythm of the state, the needs of its people, and the importance of progress with purpose.

Lucky Go is now available for download on the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Ride local. Support local.
This is how Sabah moves forward.

Location: Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia

Love in Every Cup of Coffee - Where Every Cup Tells the Story of Sabah

-
Image
In 2020, as the global pandemic swept across the world, uncertainty clouded the future. Flights were grounded, businesses stalled, and many plans were put on hold. Yet for some, this period became a turning point. In Sabah’s rural landscape, a quiet but determined coffee dream was taking root. Located in the interior of Sabah, Nature Coffee Farm began as a humble experiment driven by passion, persistence, and belief in the land. What started with curiosity soon evolved into a long-term commitment: to cultivate coffee that truly reflects Sabah’s soil, climate, and spirit. Coffee That Grows With the Land Coffee trees require patience. From planting to harvesting, the process takes years before results are visible. At Nature Coffee Farm, the team carefully nurtures each plant without rushing nature.

Lihing Experience with Grub N Vine Where Taste Meets Tradition, and Learning Becomes Sensory By Mr Alfred Allen Ginsos, Editor-in-Chief, FAVSTYLE

-
Image
In Sabah, tradition is never static. It ferments, matures, and evolves. Few cultural expressions embody this living process as eloquently as Lihing. More than a rice wine, Lihing is a cultural language, articulated through patience, ritual, and refinement. This philosophy came vividly to life at the Lihing Experience hosted by Grub N Vine , where guests were invited not merely to taste, but to understand. From Heritage to the Glass Rooted in the same ancestral brewing lineage as Tapai, Lihing represents a more composed and refined expression of fermentation. Crafted primarily from glutinous rice and fermented over an extended period of two months or more, Lihing undergoes a deliberate separation process, removing rice and yeast sediments. What remains is a translucent amber liquid, elegant in clarity and deepening in tone as it matures. This distinction is not cosmetic. It is philosophical. Where Tapai remains intimate and rustic, traditionally stored in jars for household enjoymen...
