Federation of Chinese Associations Sabah chairman Tan Sri TC Goh said that apart from the Pan Borneo Highway, the state government must step up the Sabah-Sarawak Road Link project and the needed developments to catch up with Indonesia's move to shift its capital to neighbouring Kalimantan.
"Overall, there is a 25% increase when compared with the amount of RM5.2bil allocated to Sabah in Budget 2022," he said in a statement to welcome the allocation for Sabah under Budget 2023 tabled by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim on Friday .

Goh said that Anwar's announcement to create Malaysia as a regional hub for ship building and ship repair activities through tax incentives was a welcomed development.
