The Kawang Revolt was an armed uprising in Kawang against the North Borneo Chartered Company. This uprising was led by Bantah, a notorious Kadazan warrior.[1] The chief of the Tegahas tribe, Chief Romantai, joined forces in battle alongside the Company to fight against Bantah.[2]
The Kawang Massacre, also known as the Kawang Raid occurred on March 31 when an armed raiding party of 150 people marched into Kawang and burned the Kawang railway station to the ground, killing between five and twenty people.[3][4][5]
