LAHAD DATU: Deep in Sabah’s Ulu Segama-Malua Forest Reserve – one of Malaysia’s largest and most biologically diverse rainforest reserves – a newly-launched research station next to the iconic Danum Valley aims to play a pivotal role in biodiversity protection, rainforest restoration and climate research.
Though located far from urban centres – about 80km or a two-hour drive from Lahad Datu – what happens here affects all Malaysians, from the air we breathe to the forests that help regulate our climate.
