The interview was also carried on the Buletin Bernama news over Bernama TV and other television channels at 8 pm today. Although various efforts and development agendas for the two states have been initiated, the prime minister said, Sabah and Sarawak are still far behind, with the key issues that have plagued them for so long being poverty, infrastructure, economy and Internet access.
Apart from issues related to MA63, Muhyiddin described the creation of the cabinet portfolio as very important for Sabah and Sarawak in making the Shared Prosperity Vision 2030, which aims to ensure equitable and inclusive economic distribution covering all regions, a success.
