KOTA KINABALU: The Beluran east coast district, some 200km from here, has all the attraction in terms of flora and fauna as well as culture but continues to lag behind compared to other districts in tourism.

According to former culture, youth and sports assistant minister Datuk Tan Yong Gee, this was because there was a lack of tourism projects or programmes by the government that could boost the sector.
