SANDAKAN: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Haji Aman attests that the good relationship between the state and the federal governments is key towards the many benefits that Sabah enjoys.
According to Musa, development is done widespread across Sabah, whether it is in the city or in the rural areas without discrimination towards anybody, adding that the Barisan National (BN) government is always pressing on educational development.

He added that the BN’s sincerity is proof that it is the only party that can and will defend the rights of its people as compared to the opposition whose empty promises cannot live up to what BN has been doing all along.
“This progress is not only focused on infrastructure development but also a genuine effort to prepare other various initiatives such as the People’s Aid 1Malaysia (Bantuan Rakyat 1Malaysia) (BR1M), the People’s 1Malaysia Store (Kedai Rakyat 1Malaysia), 1Malaysia Clinic, Karisma, and many others.

“All of this is for the people, especially those with low income. As they say, ‘ada ubi ada batas, ada budi kita akan balas’ (a good deed deserves another)… I am confident that the BN government will receive continued support based on its sincerity and concern towards helping all ethnicity,” said Musa during his speech at the BR1M voucher giving ceremony for Sibuga N.42  at the Sri Libaran Multipurpose Hall, here, yesterday.

Musa, who is also State Finance Minister said  he is not embarrassed to request large allocations from the federal government for the sake of the state’s development to rival other states.
He added that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak awards the allocations without hesitation given that the confidence of the people is on the rise.
Musa gave BR1M vouchers to approximately 1,321 people in the Sungai Sibuga area at the ceremony.
