Kota Kinabalu: Sabah should continue to implement good environment policies and initiatives such as the Sabah Biodiversity Strategy and the Jurisdictional Certification of palm oil to Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standards for the wellbeing of the State and its people.
Steadfast continuation of over 20 policies, including those related to wildlife action plans, water resources, forestry and environmental education with no erosion of their original intent are among other key recommendations made by 13 civil society and research organisations to the State Government.
In a meeting Friday with Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Mohd Noor, the organisations expressed their intention to collaborate with the Government in providing constructive solutions and guidance to key issues surrounding policy, social aspects, sustainably developed infrastructure and the natural environment.
