DATUK Yong Teck Lee’s statement as published in the Daily Express on Thursday, 15 April, 2021 calling upon Tan Sri Harris to explain why Sabah was downgraded like any of the other states in 1976 is mischievous.
Yong implied that Harris by agreeing to the downgrade was the reason why Sabah has remained poor in all aspects.
It is recorded that Sabah is the poorest state in Malaysia even behind Kelantan.
However, he failed to mention that Sarawak, was also downgraded to “state” and yet Sarawak is ranked one of the top eleven states in the Federation of Malaysia.

The Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) president noted Perikatan comprises various parties that care for the welfare of not only one race but all, including the natives in Sabah and Sarawak as well as the Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia.
He said Perikatan leaders were committed in ensuring that unity is fostered while the welfare of all are taken care of. Therefore, there is no reason to doubt the effectiveness of this governance, he said when commenting on the recent announcement by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin that Perikatan Nasional was the “new deal” for Malaysia.
The Prime Minister had noted the ruling coalition is a government that works for the people.

LAHAD DATU: The port at Palm Oil Industrial Cluster (POIC) Lahad Datu, here, is best left as an independent entity as it envisages a wider role in the development of eastern Sabah.
Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Dr Joachim Gunsalam expressed support for the port at the Lahad Datu POIC (collectively called POIC Lahad Datu Port), saying the reputed port is the result of some 15 years of development of the 4,400-acre industrial park.
