Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor confirmed that the government has agreed to a 15-year contract to mine and dredge sand for the reclamation of the beachfront in efforts to widen it.
TAED had recently signed a contract with Handal Borneo Resources Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Handal Energy for extraction and sales of marine sea sand at the Sunken Barrier Shoal, Hayter Shoal and Bunbury Shoal northwest of the city. The TAED came back into controversy in recent weeks with beachgoers complaining the area was fast becoming a wasteland as TAED had only been collecting parking fees into the area with few amenities provided.
A proposed multi-billion ringgit tourism development plan was launched by the then-Barisan Nasional-led state government in 2016.
