He said the move was part of Kopeks' transformation strategy to diversify its businesses, which now include healthcare services, Ar-Rahnu operations, housing projects and community media through the launch of Kinabalu Media.

Saat said Kinabalu Media, published under Kopeks’ subsidiary One Kinabalu, would serve as a community newspaper providing reliable information while contributing to the media industry in Sabah.
