It was at once realised that this opportunity comes hand-in-hand with information from numerous specimens that will be made available by specialists involved in the project, making the data set as scientifically sound as can be. This gazetteer is one of those steps towards such a specialised data base, tabulating information that serves as a primordial vocabulary on localities within that data base. By itself, too, the gazetteer will be a handy reference to all who are concerned with the scientific and systematic management of natural resources and land use in Sabah, and in the development of geographical information systems. A gazetteer, as one can sense while using the enormous amount of information systematically arranged therein, is no easy thing to compile. We are therefore pleased to see this work come to fruition, and we congratulate the authors, Joseph Tangah and K.M. Wong, on their effort in its preparation, which has taken a huge amount of time in pouring through all the maps that are available. As managers of research, we are tremendously pleased at the cooperation between institutions that have brought forth this publication, and we would also like to particularly acknowledge the pivotal role played by the financial support of the Overseas Development Administration (OD A), u.K., and the International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO) which, together with funding provided by the Malaysian Government through its IRP A (Intensification of Research by Priority Areas) programme, has permitted the Tree Flora project and its associated studies to proceed smoothly. In the final hours of the day, the documentation achieved, such as this gazetteer, will be the products that are used for further resource planning and management. Haji Awang Tengah bin Haji Awang Amin Director, Sabah Forestry Department, Malaysia Dato' Dr Salleh Mohd. Nor Director-General, Forest Research Institute Malaysia vii Sabah Gazetteer INTRODUCTION In preparing to set up a data base for botanical infonnation related to the Tree Flora of Sabah and Sarawak Project, it was soon realised that many place names require to be standardised for practical purposes, and that a comprehensive gazetteer is thus far not available for Sabah. This is particularly needed not only for spellings (the variations of which can cause confusion) but also to ensure that settlements are not listed under different districts (as district boundaries can change) and referred to, such as on different reference specimens collected through the decades, by different names (as names can also change through different historical periods). Although we have endeavoured to obtain the infonnation from as many maps as are available, we have followed the latest map available when there has been doubt or confusion. It is emphasised that this gazetteer is a guide to localities in Sabah based on infonnation from published maps. It is not a list of all localities that appear on plant specimen labels, as such localities, when not corresponding to specific localities identified in published maps, can only be pinpointed specially in relation to marked localities. The gazetteer will, nevertheless, provide coordinate references that will be useful in referring to all the most significant localities in Sabah, and as a basis for the dermition of areas for use in conservation data bases and geographical infonnation systems. The gazetteer is organised with the following sections: Part 1. Human Settlements Part 2. Hill and Mountain Peaks Part 3. Mountain Ranges Part 4. Islands Part 5. Rivers and Streams Part 6. Roads Part 7. Forest Reserves, Wildlife Reserves and Protected Areas. General conventions In this gazetteer, the following conventions are adopted: ALPHABETICAL ARRANGEMENT & SYNONYMS. All indexed names are arranged alphabetically, in the rrrst column. Known variations in the spelling of place names are listed, and their correspondence to the spelling accepted here is indicated by an equation sign ( = ) before the accepted name. The same notation is adopted for indicating synonyms (different names designated for the same location) not accepted here. HOMONYMS. Sometimes, two or more different localities have the same name. Such homonyms will appear together on the list, and no other special indication is provided if they are found in different districts or are sufficiently far apart (e.g., there are two entries each for the settlements Apin Apin, Lingkungan, and Malapi). OMISSION OF HYPHENATION. Within the languages of the region are found a number of words which are repeated to fonn a separate meaning or a special tenn. In the names listed here, such words are not hyphenated, although from the point of view of language, such tenns are typically composed of repeated words linked by a hyphen. As most of the names in Sabah with such a fonn have been consistently gazetted and used without hyphenation, we have followed this as a convention. Examples are Api Api, Lakai Lakai, Layang Layangan, Limau Limawan, and Manok Manok. 1 Sabah Gazetteer GRID BOXES & COORDINATE SYSTEM. The grid box in which a location is situated is a 15' X 15' box area, defmed by the lower northing and the left easting on the map. The detailed grid reference of a location, where applicable is given as a reading with up to 3 sets of numbers: degrees (0), minutes ( , ), and seconds ("), in the coordinates column. For mountain ranges, some large islands, river courses, roads and reserves, precise coordinates are not applicable and, instead, all grid boxes in which these features occur are listed. However, coordinates for the northernmost, southernmost, westernmost and easternmost extents_ of large islands and reserves are provided. ADMINISTRATIVE DISTRICTS. The administrative district in which a location is classified is given in a column titled District. Sources of information Information for this gazetteer was obtained from the following maps: "Sabah" (Directorate of National Mapping, Malaysia, Edition 2-PPNM, No. 37A, 1976, at 1: 500,000 and No. 37C, 1981, at 1:50,000); "Sabah

    International Court of Justice Case between Indonesia and Malaysia Concerning Sovereignty over Pulau Ligitan and Pulau Sipadan Introduction On 2 November 1998 Indonesia and Malaysia jointly seised the International Court of Justice (ICJ) of their dispute concerning sovereignty over the islands of Pulau Ligitan and Pulau Sipadan in the Celebes Sea.' They did so by notifying the Court of a Special Agreement between the two states, signed in Kuala Lumpur on 31 May 1997 and which entered into force on 14 May 1998 upon the exchange of ratifying instruments. In the Special Agreement, the two parties request the Court "to determine on the basis of the treaties, agreements and other evidence furnished by [the two parties], whether sovereignty over Pulau Ligitan and Pulau Sipadan belongs to the Republic of Indonesia or Malaysia". The parties expressed the wish to settle their dispute "in the spirit of friendly relations existing between [them] as enunciated in the 1976 Treaty of Amity and Co-operation in Southeast Asia" and declared in advance that they will "accept the Judgement of the Court given pursuant to [the] Special Agreement as final and binding upon them." On 10 November 1998 the ICJ made an Order' fixing the time limits for the respective initial pleadings in the case as follows: 2 November 1999 for the filing by each of the parties of a Memorial; and 2 March 2000 for the filing of the counter-memorials. By this order the Court also reserved subsequent procedure on this case for future decision. In fixing the time limits for the initial written pleadings, the Court took account and applied the wishes expressed by the two parties in Article 3, paragraph 2 of their Special Agreement wherein they provided that the written pleadings should consist of: 1 International Court of Justice, Press Communique 98/35, 2 November 1998.

    Land use effects on Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera (EPT) communities in Ranau- Beluran District, Sabah, Malaysia 1Andrew B. H. Wong, 1Vi V. Chaw, 1,2Arman H. Fikri 1 Institute for Tropical Biology and Conservation, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Sabah, Malaysia; 2 Water Research Unit, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Sabah, Malaysia. Corresponding author: A. H. Fikri, [email protected] Abstract. Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera (EPT) are particularly sensitive and well suited as bioindicators for monitoring stream health. This study aims to investigate the EPT communities between disturbed and undisturbed areas of Ranau-Beluran District. Based on National Water Quality Standards of Malaysia, the sampled streams were categorized as Class I and II of water classes. Nonparametric Mann- Whitney test showed that only canopy cover was significantly different between disturbed and undisturbed sites. The sampled insects were dominated by Ephemeroptera (80.42%), followed by Plecoptera (14%) and Trichoptera order (5.58%). The Leptophlebiid family was the most abundant (44.82%). Family richness, the Simpson’s and Shannon-Weiner diversity indices all showed similar trends, EPT diversity being lower in disturbed sites. The diversity of EPT was strongly related to canopy cover. Key Words: benthic macroinvertebrates, bioassessment, Borneo, EPT, land uses. Introduction. For centuries, humans had relied on the resources near the aquatic environments for settlements, transportation, and water supply for domestic and agricultural use (Fang &

Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so.

  • Conservation Area Management Plan
    FMU10: CAMP VER. 2 1. SITE CONSERVATION CONTEXT OF FOREST MANAGEMENT UNIT (FMU 10) 1.1 Objective of the FMU10: CAMP Ver. 2 Under the mid – term review as documented under the Revised Conservation Area Management Plan (CAMP) for FMU 10, which was approved by the Chief Conservator of Forests Sabah (formerly the Director of Forestry) in the year 2013, a new set of CAMP has to be prepared by the Management Planning Core Team (MPCT) including the Resource Persons Group (RPG) for FMU10 towards the end of 2016. This new document, also known as the Second Revised CAMP for FMU10, is referred to as FMU10: CAMP Ver. 2 (FMU10: CAMP Version 2). The rationale and management objectives of FMU10: CAMP Ver. 2 is as follows: 1.1.1 Area, Site’s Name and Location: The whole of the FMU 10 (Tambunan) is located in central Sabah, between longitude E 116o 21’ 13. 8” and E 117o 01’ and latitude N 5o 27’N and 5o 52’N. For management and identification purposes under this FMU10: CAMP Ver. 2, the area and the site’s name is known as the Forest Management Unit Number 10 or FMU10 (Tambunan). As of December 2016, the FMU10 consisted of the Nuluhon Trusmadi Forest Reserve with a total size of 74, 736 hectare (ha) and the Sg. Kiluyu Forest Reserve with a total area of 1, 068 ha. Both are Class 1 (Protection) Forest Reserves, with a total size of 75,804 ha. In late 2016, an area totalling 12,241 ha was excised out from the neighbouring Trusmadi Forest Reserve (FMU 5: Class II Forest Reserve) in Ranau.

  • The Kimanis By-Election: a Much-Needed Sweet (Manis) Victory for Warisan
    ISSUE: 2020 No. 3 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore |16 January 2020 The Kimanis By-election: A Much-needed Sweet (Manis) Victory for Warisan Lee Poh Onn and Kevin Zhang*1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • On 18 January 2020, a by-election will be held for the parliamentary seat of Kimanis in Sabah. The Federal Court has upheld the Election Court's ruling that Anifah Aman's victory in the 14th General Elections (GE14) was nullified by election discrepancies. • This by-election is seen as a referendum on the Warisan state government’s performance over the past 18 months since replacing the Barisan Nasional (BN) after GE14, and the outcome would have some impact on Sabah Chief Minister Shafie Apdal’s standing. Warisan-PH and BN had won an equal number of state seats, but Warisan formed the state government only after the defection of some BN state assemblymen. At the Federal level, the Pakatan Harapan government sorely needs a victory in Kimanis to reverse the trend of by-election defeats it has suffered over the past year. • Warisan began the election contest on a stronger footing but it is shaping up to be a close fight. Both candidates, Warisan’s Karim Bujang and UMNO’s Mohamad Alamin, have strong political experience in Kimanis. • Bread and butter issues matter greatly to Kimanis residents who mostly suffer from low incomes and poor infrastructure. Warisan is on the defensive against the BN’s claims that the state government has failed to bring economic uplift to the area.
