Sabah State Administrative Centre, Government building in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia.
The Sabah State Administrative Centre is a tall government building in Kota Kinabalu with modern glass and steel construction. The structure rises over 30 floors and dominates the skyline of the city.
The project was built between 2011 and 2016 as part of Sabah's plan for a new administrative center. Its completion marked an important step in modernizing the state's infrastructure.
The building houses the chief minister's office and state cabinet, serving as the administrative heart of Sabah's government operations.
The building is located several kilometers from the international airport and is accessible by public transport or car. Visitors should note that this is an active government building and access may be limited.
At 132 metres, the 33-storey tower is Borneo's second tallest building, surpassed only by the Jesselton Twin Towers in the same city. It overtook Wisma Sanyan in Sibu, Sarawak, to take that rank. The complex was officially gazetted as "Menara Kinabalu" on 26 August 2021.
