Hundreds flee Mount Kinabalu floods


KOTA KINABALU: Tonnes of mud, boulders, rocks and debris flowed down Mount Kinabalu after three days of heavy rain, forcing the evacuation of hundreds of people from their homes at the foothills of the mountain.

The mudflows – after the June 5 earthquake – hit Mesilau on the eastern face and Kiau on the western side, washing out and seriously damaging bridges as firemen began rescue operations in affected villages.
