KUDAT: The iconic Tip of Borneo, or Tanjung Simpang Mengayau, has officially reopened after being closed for over three years for major upgrades.
The facelift, led by the state Tourism, Culture and Environment Ministry, features a new Visitor’s Information Centre with plans for Sabah’s first and largest marine gallery nearby.
Minister Datuk Seri Christina Liew said the site had been closed since January 2022 for improvements under the Twelfth Malaysia Plan, with works completed last September.
