Recently, my friend Ong Kui Hua and I travelled to Sabah together for a holiday. Ong is a Form Five History teacher from Seremban, Negri Sembilan, and she was interested in visiting the Kundasang War Memorial and Gardens in the state.
The memorial was to commemorate the nearly 2,500 Australian and British prisoners who died during World War II at the Sandakan Prisoner of War (POW) Camp, many of whom were casualties of the three infamous death marches from Sandakan to Ranau.
