With century-old rain trees spared, locals want Kasigui to be made a heritage site

Penampang folk want Kasigui town to be declared a heritage site.

KOTA KINABALU: The time has come for Kasigui, the forgotten "town" of the Kadazans, to be preserved and developed as a heritage site now that the government has decided not to chop down century-old rain trees in the area.

Kasigui native Eric Ye said there was great historical significance in the area, which was once the economic "hub" of Penampang district.
