130th Year of BCCM

In 1882, the first batch of Hakka Chinese arrived at Kudat, as laborers recruited by the British North Borneo Chartered Company.  They have a unique history background and that was they were Basel Christians in China. And when they come, they bring with them their religion and organization.


The development of Basel Church in Malaysia is the story of pioneers from China in Sabah.


They strive to give their children a suitable education. In poverty and World Wars, these Christians in Sabah build and maintain their schools.




Since 1882, BCCM has grown from ten families to today 140 local congregations located all over Malaysia.


They grew from a small local congregation in Lau San Kudat in 1882 to a Church organization as far as Madagascar in Africa.
