FLYING doctor services in Sabah, which ceased operation due to a federal budget constraint, will resume by mid-2019. 

Sabah Health and People’s Well-being Minister Stephen Wong said the services would start in May or June next year. 

The service will cover 11 villages – five in Kota Marudu, Nabawan (3), Tuaran (2) and Penampang (1). 

“The five villages in Kota Marudu are Kampung Sonsogon Makatol, Kampung Sonsogon Mogis, Kampung Sonsogon Suyad, Kampung Binantungan Suyad and Kampung Minsusurud. 

“The three villages in Nabawan are Kampung Kabu, Kampung Siliran and Kampung Karampalon. In Tuaran, it is Kampung Talungan and Kampung Bambangan Ulu and in Penampang, Longkogugan is covered,” he said. –  November 15, 2018.
