NABAWAN: The longest longhouse in Sabah is currently being constructed.
Measuring 658 feet long and 30 feet wide, the RM300,000 “rumah panjang” as it is locally known, is being built in Kampung Salarom Taka, 80 km from Nabawan town and completion is scheduled for early next year.
And, when completed, it will provide a “roof over the head” for some 360 villagers from over 30 households.
The contractor has been carrying out construction work with assistance from enthusiastic villagers over the last six months.
The longhouse is located not far from Batu Punggul which is a popular tourist spot.
