Teaming up to protect wildlife

Four oil palm firms join hands with Sabah to ensure wildlife continues to thrive and forests flourish in Malua.

DEEP within the heart of Sabah lies the 34,000ha Malua Forest Reserve. It has been previously logged but regeneration over the years means that it is still a significant area of rainforest in Sabah. It houses a globally threatened ecosystem – the lowland dipterocarp rainforest – and is part of a larger contiguous area of forest and buffers primary rainforest to the south, the Danum Valley Conservation area.
