Kota Kinabalu: Sabah is determined to go ahead with its own state Malaysia My Second Home programme, claiming no contradiction with the national policy after Putrajaya suspended the operations of all licensed agents handling it.

State Tourism, Culture and Environment minister Datuk Christina Liew said that the state would be losing out to other countries in South-east Asia if it did not roll out the programme soon.“No it will not contravene laws. We met with immigration, police, all relevant authorities and we are ready. My program is being delayed, unnecessarily and we will lose out to other countries around South-east Asia who are very interested,” she said when speaking to reporters today.
