Sukau Arch crash, Company should bear responsibility for repairs, says state CVLB chairman


KOTA KINABALU: The company that owns the dump truck responsible for running into and destroying the Sukau Arch last week, should bear the responsibility of fixing the structure, which is iconic to locals and visitors to the area located in Sabah’s east coast.

State Commercial Vehicles Licensing Board (CVLB) chairman Vivian Wong Shir Yee further suggested that the company coordinate this with the local authorities so that the arch can be repaired as soon as possible as the welcome sign was a tourism landmark for Sukau, a township under Kinabatangan district.
