KOTA KINABALU: The Kota Kinabalu Internationl Airport (KKIA) here is likely to remain close for a second night as officials seek Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) assistance to put up temporary portable lights on the runway to allow landings.
It is learned that the portable lights were being flown in from the RMAF base in Subang and might arrive late Friday as an emergency measure to facilitate late night landings.
