KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 14 (NNN-BERNAMA) – The iconic rock formation of Bako National Park, in the northern Borneo state of Sarawak, known as the Cobra Head Sea Stack, has been destroyed as a result of wave action, local authorities said today.
The destruction of the natural structure was first reported by a park guide at 4.00 p.m. local time yesterday, Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC) said, in a statement.
“This sea stack held great significance as one of the country’s geological treasures, formed from sandstone over millions of years, through the process of erosion,” it said.
