KDNK per kapitaPenampang (Malay: Pekan Penampang) is the capital of
the Penampang District in the West Coast Division of Sabah, Malaysia. Its population was
estimated to be around 93,616 in 2010,[1] with ethnic Kadazan as the majority. It
contains, or is synonymous with, Donggongon, which as of 2007, it has a population of
78,086.[2]
The town has virtually become a suburb of Kota Kinabalu and considered as part
of Greater Kota Kinabalu area.[3]
Etymology[edit]
The name Penampang came from an old village within the district. The village's name in
turn originates from a Kadazan word pampang meaning a big rock. This is because huge
rocks were easily found within the vicinity of the village a long time ago. The name in
contemporary usage refers to the district, with the town of Donggongon as the main
town within the district of Penampang. The name Donggongon originates from Kadazan
word tundo'ongon which means a 'shelter' or a 'resting area', referring to its historical
role as a stop-over for people from the interior who journeyed down the coast to trade.
Penampang as a name reference of this area is of a relatively new origin. Early British
explorer, John Whitehead who had explored North Borneo in the 1880s referred to this
district as Patatan.[4] Owen Rutter, a civil servant in North Borneo from 1910 to 1914
similarly referred to this area as Putatan.[5]

Tuaran (Malay: Pekan Tuaran) is the capital of the Tuaran District in the West Coast
Division of Sabah, Malaysia. Its population was estimated to be around 128,200 in
2019[1] with half the population consists of ethnic Dusuns, most of the Lotud ethnic
subgroup as well of Bajau descent. The remainder is mostly of the Malaysian
Chinese community, particularly from the Hakka subgroup and Malay. The town is
bordered on three sides by the Tuaran River. It is located 34 kilometres (21 mi) north of
the state capital Kota Kinabalu, and is strategically situated along the main highway
linking Kota Kinabalu with the north of Sabah.
Etymology[edit]
The existence of Tuaran in colonial records can be traced as far back as 1813, in official
letters written by Sir Stamford Raffles, the then British Governor of Java, seeking
permission to accept the Sultan of Brunei's invitation to deal with piracy issues at
'Jawaran' in the north of Borneo.
'Jawaran' is a corruption of the Malay word tawaran. Tawaran has two meanings; the first
meaning is 'fresh water', referring to the importance of the Tuaran area as a source of
freshwater for the locality. The second meaning is 'to bargain', which refers to the
trading activities which had been taking place in the Tuaran area even before British
colonisation commenced in 1884.[2]
Another consideration is Tuaran came from word 'taaran' which mean river
by Dusun ethnic.
