World one is hard because not all airports in the world release complete set of data for 2016, at this moment.

The reason why Tawau airport is the 2nd busiest airport is because:

1) Tawau is near to Tarakan, Indonesia. It is well known that quite a number of people from neighbouring country use Tawau airport as transit point to other major airports as flying from Tarakan then to Jakarta is very far.

2) Tawau is also the gateway to Sipadan Islands, which obviously a famous tourist destination

3) Lahad Datu, the 4th largest town in Sabah is closer to Tawau than to Sandakan, thus most use Tawau airport rather than Sandakan airport

Tawau is a transit point as a gateway to Indonesia City. Plus Tawau have international flight to Tarakan City in Indonesia. Tawau Airport is service to Tawau City residents and Semporna Resident as well... As Semporna tourism is boom with China tourist, I thought the numbers of passenger is logically and over the numbers of passenger travel into Sandakan.
