Inanam
Place in Sabah, Malaysia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inanam is a suburb and sub-district of Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, Malaysia. It is 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) from the city centre.
OKK Majimbun Majangkin is considered one of the key player in Inanam development.[1] During World War II, Inanam was the base where the Kinabalu Guerillas led by Albert Kwok operated to fight the Japanese.[2]
The town population consists of mainly the Dusun, and the Chinese who operate the shops. Of late however there has been a large influx of immigrants both from the southern Philippines and Indonesia. Many of them are undocumented and live as squatters.[3][4] A considerable number of them however were controversially naturalised and relocated into low-cost housing settlements provided by the Malaysian government.[citation needed][5]
Kota Kinabalu City (North) Bus Terminal is located in Inanam which become part of the BRT Kota Kinabalu.[6]
A substantial part of the sub-district near the town centre consists of a light industrial area. Towards the interior, traditional Dusun villages scatter the hill slopes, with fruit orchards and rubber smallholdings.
