Go BackThe only sight worth mentioning in Kundasang (apart from the aforementioned mountain) is the Kundasang War Memorial. It was erected to commemorate the 2428 Australian and British prisioners who died in the Sandakan Prisoner-of-War Camp as well as casualties of the three infamous forced death marches during World War II.
The Kundasang War Memorial also celebrate the locals who risked their own lives to aid these POWs. The memorial was initiated by Major G.S. Carter of the Shell Oil Co., the same person who proposed Kinabalu National Park. The memorial garden comprises four interlocking gardens planted with flowering plants representing the homelands of those who perished. There is an Australian Garden, a formal English Garden, a Borneo Garden, and a Comtemplation Garden.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
