In remebrance of Sabah eartquake Heroes
It was the strongest earthquake ever recorded in Malaysia, striking Ranau at 7.15am on that fateful Friday and surpassing the 5.8 tremblor recorded in Lahad Datu in 1976.
The epicentre of the earthquake was 16km northwest of Ranau but tremors were felt by the people in districts such as Kundasang, Tambunan, Interior, Tuaran, Kota Kinabalu and Kota Belud.
The earthquake damaged the ‘Donkey’s Ears’ iconic peak of Mount Kinabalu and effected damage to property in Ranau.
18 killed in the earthquake, 10 were Singaporeans, among them students and teachers of Tanjong Katong Primary School as well as one travel guide.
187 climbers were impacted, according to Sabah official sources, with most of them from Malaysia and Singapore, and others from Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Japan, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Philippines, South Korea, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom and the United States.137 of them were stranded but subsequently rescued. As of 10 June, 18 people of 5 nationalities were confirmed dead. The Singaporean teacher and student who were reportedly missing, were confirmed dead by the Singaporean Ministry of Education with an official statement released at the same day. Subsequent investigation and witness by other climbers found that four Malaysian mountain guides died while protecting climbers. The four guides were identified as Robbi Sapinggi, Valerian Joannes, Ricky Masirin and Joseph Solungin.

WHAT IS VIA FERRATA?
A via ferrata (or 'iron road' in Italian, plural via ferrate) is a protected mountain pathway consisting of a series of rungs, rails, cables and bridges embracing the rock face. It allows access to scenic sections of the mountains that are typically available only to rock climbers and mountaineers.
VIA FERRATA CLIMBING
An Activity for Everyone
The Mt Kinabalu via ferrata is devised to give climbers with little or no climbing experience access to rock faces normally reached by mountaineers and rock climbers. The minimum requirements needed for the first time via ferrate climber are:
* Average fitness level (Able to hike up to 3,200m in 6 hrs)
* At least 10 years old and 1.3meters tall
* Do not have a fear of heights or are willing to conquer their fear of heights
The Mt Kinabalu via ferrata routes are designed with beginner and intermediate climbers in mind.
* There is a via ferrata route to match everyone's ability and endurance.
* Beginner climbers can take their first experience along the granite walls of Mt Kinabalu. A journey of 2 to 3 hours.
* Intermediate climbers embark on a 4 to 5 hours journey to experience the challenge of mountaineering and the lesser seen side of the mountain's breathtaking heights and sights. * The diversity of via ferrata routes means there is something for everyone -- whether he or she is 10 or 70, a keen mountaineer or a casual holidaymaker.
