The park was named after Tunku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia's first Prime Minister.

Prior to this, early inhabitants of the land lived in predominantly tribal societies, although such tribal societies had continued to exist until the 1900s.[1] The eastern part of Sabah was ceded to the Sultan of Sulu by the Sultan of Brunei in 1658 for the former helping a victory over Brunei enemies. By the late 19th century, both territories previously owned by Sultan of Brunei and Sultan of Sulu was granted to British syndicate.[2] Sabah became a protectorate of the United Kingdom in 1888 and subsequently became a crown colony until 1963, during which time it was known as North Borneo. On September 16, 1963, Sabah merged with Malaya, Sarawak and Singapore (left in 1965) to form the Federation of Malaysia.

Legend
As with any high mountains around the world, Mount Kinabalu is also not spared from the mystical stories and legends unique. Kadazandusun who settled around the region Kundasang and Ranau in Sabah have described themselves as the guardians and protectors of Mount Kinabalu for a long time, they believe surrounding land, forest, water and Mount Kinabalu itself is sacred land to be preserved always, they also believe that ancestral spirits of the dead and is now resting at Mount Kinabalu and the surrounding areas. Initially, exploration and climbing Mount Kinabalu is an act strictly prohibited by the Kadazandusun and again, this is to prevent the spirits of their ancestors become angry and may disturb local residents and climbers.
But in 1851, a British Governor of Labuan named Sir Hugh Low has started climbing expeditions to Mount Kinabalu trip with a desire to compromise with all the local people to sacrifice to appease the spirits souls of their ancestors.
The word "Kinabalu" was originally a word that accumulated Kadazandusun words "Aki" Nabalu ", ie" Aki "means ancestors, while" Nabalu "Wilkins mountain," Mount Forefathers "in Malay. Or more accurately be mountain resting place ancestral spirits Kadazandusun.
According to legend Kadazandusun, the highest god created the world and Mount Kinabalu, it starts from the mythical dragon in charge treasure trove of pearls. The validity of this story can you feel when you are in the highest peaks of Mount Kinabalu, the more so when you are in a state of desolation with a humid climate, stunning slow-moving clouds and a strong wind noise. The climbers are advised to always keep well when climbing discipline, ethics application should be cared for, do not make noise, not calling people names at will, do not get angry or laugh uproariously.
Drunk and climbing unsteadily is strongly prohibited because it can cause harm. Mount Bromo has a steep rock structures, perforated and easy slip, use the climbing rope at all times to avoid falling in the canyon that is widely available in the tops of Mount Kinabalu.
Mount Kinabalu is also available on many wells and natural water puddles, the Kadazandusun believe it was here where the spirits of their ancestors bathing, here is also the place where a handful of so-called Bobohizan will wash the body and take water to drink in order to throw shit. Now the petals of the water tank used as a hope (Wishing Well) for climbers who climb Mount Kinabalu, the climbers will usually throw a coin into the tank hope as a way to honor the spirits of ancestors Kadazandusun not to interfere with their while climbing up and down. But the adoring soul and throw coins into the water sheath is something that is forbidden in Islam because the act is considered polytheism and cursed in the sight of God. Still, Islam allows men to respect the area as long as the custom is still in line with Islamic ethics.
The climbers are advised to urinate or large petals into the water as the act is not good in the eyes of the local community and may cause resentment by "delicate dwellers" who live there can not be seen with the naked eye.
