A National Treasure Imbak Canyon is like a natural mystery with vast hidden treasures. Here, modern science and age-old secret traditions co-exist in harmony; it’s a place where scientific minds and traditional healers  complement one another almost perfectly. A team of dedicated rangers take pride in their duty – ensuring all wildlife that call this place home is protected. With roads to the canyon now making it more accessible, the villagers of this tropical sanctuary are opening windows to their hearts – allowing visitors to appreciate the natural wonders and beauty through responsible eco-tourism.

Ginger For Growth Grown in the rich soil of Pitas, Sabah, quality ginger is processed and pulverised in Karak, Pahang, for local distribution and export. The growers are pioneers of the PETRONAS Planting Tomorrow Programme. The Planting Tomorrow Programme, in partnership with Yayasan Sejahtera Sabah, endeavoured to make water more accessible. Now, water flows freely and is distributed via a gravity system for daily use, sanitation and agriculture. Today, there is a large number of ginger harvesting jobs in the area, thanks to the good soil and water.  The villagers are happy – better income, improved livelihood and quality produce.
