KOTA KINABALU: Various conservation initiatives are being done on the marine ecosystem around Sabah’s Mengalum Island, not far from the city here.
The island, which is partially owned by Taiwanese real estate agency company Sinyi Group, is home to marine life such as coral reefs, turtles, fish and other species.
Additionally, to better protect the turtles on the island, the SWD has provided wildlife management training to Sinyi Group employees. However, the ecological environment has suffered from significant human-induced damage for a long time.
