Foh Sang, the nucleus of Luyang

24 March 2014 | last updated at 10:39PM By OLIVIA MIWIL FOH Sang, Luyang. What's not to like about the three rows of shops in the heart of the Kota Kinabalu suburbs? Sitting on what used to be a rubber estate, it was developed in the mid-1970s and grew to become the haunt of food lovers. Foh Sang was one of the first few commercial areas built outside of the state capital to complement the new housing developments. Located in Jalan Kolam which used to end at Bukit Padang, where the main mental hospital was located, Foh Sang has remained largely unchanged, though the same cannot be said of its neighbours. Nearby swamps and rubber plantations are now known as Bornion, Damai, Lintas and Hilltop -- bustling commercial areas popular with city dwellers. More than 20 housing estates and hospitals or medical centres have sprung up around Foh Sang. The road network has also expanded. The Jalan Kolam route is now linked to the next district, Penampang, with bypasses that co...

KK hoteliers should give fair contribution to support city maintenance

KOTA KINABALU: Dewan Bandaraya Kota Kinabalu (DBKK) Mayor Datuk Seri Dr Sabin Samitah has urged hotels in the city to contribute fairly towards city maintenance. He said that the previous annual rate of RM10 per room, which has been in place since 1989, is outdated and inadequate. DBKK reinstated the original hotel licensing fees under the Kota Kinabalu City (Hotel & Lodging Houses) By-laws 1966, effective January 1, 2025, with charges applied only to occupied rooms. The rates are RM4.65, RM2.65, and RM1.30 per occupied room per day for Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 hotels, respectively, while unoccupied rooms are exempt. "This rate has been in place since 1966. Then, in 1989, the government did not cancel the rate. It was just that, at the time, the economic situation was not good. “There were very few tourists, so the government provided assistance to the hotel industry. They only had to pay RM10 per year," he said. Sabin added that when hawkers are diligen...
