UK lifts travel advisory on Kudat


PETALING JAYA: The United Kingdom’s travel advisory on Kudat, Sabah, has finally been lifted, more than a decade after the Lahad Datu incursion of 2013 which killed over 70 people, including 10 security forces personnel.

While the UK government is no longer advising against travel to islands and dive sites in the maritime area around Kudat, its advice against all but essential travel to islands and dive sites from Sandakan to Tawau, including Lankayan Island, remain in place.
