Tinangol resides in one of the poorest regions of Sabah. Most of the 100 households here survive through farming and selling their produce at local markets, but it’s a tough existence for most.
Community centres are commonplace in Sabah and form an integral part of village life. Tinangol currently does not have a community hub and so in 2017 Camps International volunteers started work by digging and laying concrete foundations to support steel reinforcement frames.
