Kuala Lumpur: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today admitted that border development on the Malaysian side in Sabah and Sarawak has been relatively slow compared to the Indonesian side following the relocation of the republic’s capital from Jakarta to Nusantara in East Kalimantan.
He said this is partly due to the allocation of RM1 billion, which was only recently approved this year.However, all relevant ministries have been asked to expedite matters, Anwar said during Minister’s Question Time at the Dewan Rakyat today.
Anwar said he has also asked Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof to monitor and coordinate all development projects for Sabah and Sarawak, including the implementation of the Pan Borneo Highway, as well as other projects related to the RM1 billion allocation.
