LONDON: A British natural history publisher has hailed Sabah's extraordinary triple-crown achievement as a powerful catalyst poised to rekindle a profound fascination with the state's exceptional wildlife.
John Beaufoy, an avid wildlife enthusiast, believed this accolade would not only deepen the world's appreciation for Sabah's ecological wonders but also issue a captivating call to a global audience to explore the region's rich biodiversity.
"I've had the privilege of visiting Sabah multiple times over the past 25 years. With its newfound Unesco triple-crown status, I firmly believe it will elevate Sabah, especially Kinabalu Park, to the pinnacle of wildlife history destinations," he said in a statement.
Beaufoy shared his reflections following the unveiling of Sabah's Kinabalu Unesco Global Geopark during the World Travel Market 2023 at Excel London on Monday (Nov 6).
