Evacuation, not eviction: Sabah minister says of Bajau Laut

Evacuation notices were issued to 273 illegal settlements in the Tun Sakaran Marine Park waters from May 2 to 4 due to safety concerns, said Sabah Tourism, Culture and Environment Minister Christina Liew.

She said the notices were distributed following the shooting incidents in Darvel Bay in Kunak, as well as cross-border criminal activities in the unauthorised settlements.
