KOTA KINABALU — A major infrastructure development aimed at enhancing law enforcement capabilities in Sabah's interior regions will break ground early next year, according to state leadership.
The Nabawan district police headquarters and accompanying housing project, valued at RM150 million, is scheduled to commence construction in January 2027. The integrated facility will serve as a central command and residential hub for police personnel stationed in the district.
The project forms part of broader efforts to strengthen police infrastructure and improve operational efficiency across Sabah's more remote administrative divisions. District headquarters such as Nabawan play a crucial role in coordinating law enforcement activities across wider geographic areas.
Official details regarding the project's timeline, contractor selection, and specific facilities to be included at the complex have not yet been disclosed. The development is expected to generate employment opportunities during the construction phase and upon completion.
