Massive Sabah blaze devastates Kampung Bahagia, destroying thousands of homes

A massive overnight fire in Kampung Bahagia, Sabah (Borneo), destroyed more than 1,000 stilt homes and displaced about 9,000 residents over four hectares of densely packed housing; firefighting was hampered by low tide and water access. The cause is under investigation, though a gas stove incident is suspected. No deaths have been reported, with several injuries and authorities coordinating relocation and relief for the affected communities.
