Malaysia: Borneo Cement (Sabah) (BCS) plans to convert its upcoming integrated cement plant in Sabah's Tongod district into a tourist destination once the plant begins operations in May 2025. According to BCS chair Masiung Banah, limestone processing and environmental protection practices could serve as a an ‘attractive package’ for foreign and domestic tourists, according to The Star Malaysia. He said that limestone areas rich in flora and fauna and tropical ecosystems would be maintained without being polluted by factory waste. The plant will also reportedly be made into a research hub for Malaysian universities. It is currently in its first phase of development.
