Kota Kinabalu Port is located on Borneo’s northwest coast on the South China Sea. It is the capital and main commercial and industrial center for the Sabah state in Malaysia. With excellent deep-water anchorage, the city rebounded quickly from World War II bombing to become the capital of British North Borneo in 1946. In 2000, over 570 thousand people lived in Kota Kinabalu Port, while the urban area is home to about 700 thousand souls. It is the biggest city in Sabah state and the sixth biggest in the country of Malaysia
