soemone told me that the word 'keningau' comes from a tree. Can someone verify this? What is the keningau tree?

[edit] Cinnamon

Is 'Keningau' the Malay word for the cinnamon tree? It's suggested but not made explicit in the article. Jasper33 22:04, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

I dont know the Malay word for the tree, but the Malay word for Cinnamon is "Kayu Manis" (i think). "Keningau" is probably the Dusun or Kadazan word for the Cinnamon tree. kawaputra^tok2me 03:39, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
