Relic of war: The relic was initially well-preserved but some parts have since been removed or deteriorated over time.
KOTA KINABALU: Near the Sabah-Sarawak border in Lawas, a decaying plane believed to be a Japanese “Zero” fighter lies abandoned.
Residents of Kampung Pa Puti believe this relic dates back to World War II, around 1945, when Allied forces clashed with the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces.
