Mt Kinabalu moving slightly every year


KUALA LUMPUR: Sabah has the highest number of dangerous slopes in Malaysia and the Works Ministry says this is because Mount Kinabalu – its tallest mountain – is moving every year.

“If you’re talking about states, the biggest (in number) will be Sabah because based on the findings of the experts, Kinabalu is still moving,” Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof told reporters at the 4th International Conference on Slopes Malaysia 2015 here.
