KOTA KINABALU (Sept 17, 2013): Prime Minister Datuk
Seri Najib Abdul Razak is confident Sabah will achieve more rapid
development and progress within Malaysia in the next 50 years.
Najib, who regarded Sabah as "always close to my heart", said such success can be achieved if the people continue to elect a state government which is the same as the federal government.
"If we are successful for 50 years in bringing Sabah until today, we endeavour that 50 years from now (Sabah) will be greater. This is our promise at this historical celebration which is well received by the people."
He said this in his speech when launching the Malaysia Day and "50 years of Sabah Independence in Malaysia" celebration at Prince Philip Park, Tanjung Aru, here on Monday night.
"We pledge that we will be together for the next 50 years. Sabah will change in appearance and Malaysia will achieve a developed nation status in seven years and we hope Sabah too will become a developed state," he said.
Najib, who is also finance minister, said although development will take time due to Sabah's huge size, the Barisan Nasional (BN) government will endeavour to look after the wellbeing of the people.
He stressed that the BN government will realise its promise for the people of Sabah who supported the party in the 13th general election.
Earlier, Najib opened the Tanjung Aru Eco-development and launched Bank Negara's commemorative coins in conjunction with the golden jubilee of Malaysia.
