Rescue agencies on standby in Ranau as bad weather triggers mudflow, landslips


KOTA KINABALU: A four-hour downpour triggered a mudflow that damaged a host of fruit stalls in the hilly Ranau district, about 120km from here, on Thursday (Sept 21).

Heavy rain that started about 3pm also caused two roads to collapse including one leading to a popular highland resort in Mesilau which was located in the foothills of Mount Kinabalu.
