| - Gilwell Scouts Nature Park Sandakan (Gilwell SNP Sandakan) is located in Sandakan, Sabah on the isle of Borneo in Sabah, which is the second largest state in the federation of Malaysia and shares the island of Borneo with Sarawak, Brunei and Indonesia Kalimantan. It is an environmental educational park that is operated and owned since August 15, 2003 by Persekutuan Pengakap Malaysia Cawangan Sabah (PPMCS), the largest youth organisation in Sabah and a member state of the Scouting federation in Malaysia. Gilwell SNP Sandakan currently has more than 25 attractions, facilities and growing. Gilwell SNP Sandakan emphasises efforts in environmental management and education to contribute in achieving United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and Sabah State's social and biodiversity objectives. The World Organization of Scout Movement certified and accredited Gilwell SNP Sandakan as part of its Scout Centre for Excellence in Nature, Environment and Sustainability (SCENES) network on May 12, 2021. This is a significant milestone for Scouting in Malaysia, considering World Organization of Scout Movement has certified 38 others worldwide, of which only 3 (including Gilwell SNP Sandakan) are located in Asia Pacific. The accreditation of Gilwell SNP Sandakan, Malaysia as part of the global SCENES network is a watershed moment and matter of national pride. The SCENES charter from World Organization of Scout Movement was signed by its Secretary General Ahmad Alhendawi, Persekutuan Pengakap Malaysia national Chief Scout Commissioner Maj. Gen. Prof. Dato' Dr. Mohd Zin Bidin (R)and PPMCS State Chief Commissioner Datuk Awang Zaini bin Suntim JP. It seeks to promote and educate Scouts, communities, partners and foreign visitors about sustainable living and practices as an environmental educational park. As such, Gilwell SNP Sandakan satisfies three mandatory SCENES criteria i.e. have a natural area, provide environmental education and practice environmental management.This marks another new chapter for Scouting in Sabah, which started with the first Scouts and Scout Troop in Sandakan in 1913, credited to Reverend Canon Thomas Cecil Alexander, part of the Anglican Mission. He is credited as the founder of the Scout movement in North Borneo and continued to serve until 1926 before returning to England. There is a letter, dated December 22, 1913, written by Reverend Canon Thomas Cecil Alexander to Colonel H.S. Brownrigg in England, who was then Commissioner for Overseas Dominions and Colonies at that time, informing about the establishment of the first Scout group in North Borneo. This historical letter is archived and preserved at PPMCS Headquarters which is B-P House Sabah in Kota Kinabalu. Colonel H.S. Brownrigg is one of three persons instrumental in organising the historical King's Rally at Windsor Great Park on Tuesday, July 4, 1911, attended by 30,000 Scouts. The other two were Sir Herbert Plumer and Percy Everett. The Government of Sabah has granted the land title for Gilwell SNP Sandakan to PPMCS, which employs and operate it with seven (7) full-time employees since 2017. The park was established on August 15, 2003, as part of preparations to commemorate 100 Years of Scouting in Sabah or Scouting Centennial Anniversary in Sabah, in 2013. The Sabah State Government gazetted District (Bil Pelan 07125491) for Scouting purposes as per Land Ordinance Chapter 68 Declaration of Land Reserved for State Land Sandakan District Under Section 28 (1) (No. JKM PHB 600-2/56 (8)) dated September 1, 2015 after approval from then Sabah State Chief Minister Datuk Musa Hj Aman on August 11, 2005, in perpetuity with no expiry term. By default, the Government of Sabah Chief Minister is Gilwell SNP Sandakan's Patron. (en)
