KOTA KINABALU: Papar became the latest district to be declared an African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreak zone in Sabah after the virus was detected in Kampung Kogopon and Kampung Purak last month.

Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan said the ASF virus was to blame for the deaths of 91 pigs in the two villages over a two-week period starting mid-September, resulting in losses estimated at RM50,000.

Aside from Papar, two other districts have been declared ASF outbreak districts, namely Kota Kinabalu on Sept 30 and Tenom on Oct 13.
