Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta Ep8: Kundasang

Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta is our ongoing tourism-themed series on Earth Matters, which aims to highlight lesser-known ecotourism spots right here in Malaysia. Done in collaboration with the Ecotourism & Conservation Society Malaysia (ECOMY), we want to take you back to the great outdoors, and experience the many off-the-beaten-track nature spots our country has to offer. Last time, we explored the Kinabatangan River, and now we're still in Sabah, but in Kundasang, which is located at the foot of Mount Kinabalu, Malaysia’s tallest mountain and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. But climbing the mountain isn't the only thing to do there, and Andrew Sebastian, the Founder & Chief Executive Officer of ECOMY is here to help us explore the many eco-adventures available in the area.
