Shafie: RM1.5b Sabah grant must reach the grassroots
Parti Warisan president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal said the Federal Government's immediate increase of Sabah's special grant to RM1.5 billion must translate into tangible benefits for the people. Speaking in Semporna after officiating the party's ninth Semporna Division annual general meeting, he said the amount matters less than whether it reaches the grassroots and addresses basic needs like water and electricity, and that MA63 rights including the 40pc net revenue entitlement must be given serious attention.
