Sabah can develop state on its own if rights, resources returned, MP tells PM

Kota Belud MP Isnaraissah Munirah Majlis says PM Muhyiddin Yassin does not understand aspirations of Sabahans.

In a statement, Kota Belud MP Isnaraissah Munirah Majlis said Muhyiddin’s remarks were insensitive and against the aspirations of Sabahans. “If he is sincere and understands the struggle of Sabahans, he should have come to tell us that it is time Sabahans are given back our rights as stipulated in the Malaysia Agreement 1963, especially in the equal distribution of allocations between Sabah, Sarawak and Malaya.”She said it was disappointing that Muhyiddin had said Sabah needed help where development was concerned as this gave the impression that Sabah was not independent.

While Sabah was developed, Muhyiddin said it was not enough and that the state could not do it on its own and would need to work with the federal government.
