The newly-discovered Pulau Batu Rumput also known as Pulau Layar near the Kg Bebuloh Laut open sea and Kina Benuwa Mangrove Park
LABUAN: Labuan’s oldest gazetted Kina Benuwa Mangrove Park is set to undergo a major facelift with an initial allocation of RM1.5 million, as part of the island’s tourism development plan.
The proposed project, which has been submitted to the Federal Territories Ministry for approval, is to be implemented early next year.
Labuan Corporation (LC) Chief Executive Officer Dr Fary Akmal Osman said the agency wanted the mangrove forest to be a natural tourism area but should be upgraded to make it ecologically sustainable and tourist-friendly.
