KOTA KINABALU: The controversial high-end re-development of Sabah's iconic Tanjung Aru beach is being re-looked at with an eye to only develop the land areas and leaving the beachfront untouched for now.

State owned Tanjung Aru Eco-Development Sdn Bhd (TAED) chairman Tan Sri Pandikar Amin said that they were now focusing towards the development of Prince Philip Park and also converting the land space for the current hawker area into a hotel.
