Kota Kinabalu: Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has outlined three
thrusts that must be emphasised for Sabah within the next five years
which he believed can be achieved with the existing cordial relationship
between the Federal and State Government under Chief Minister Datuk
Seri Musa Aman.
The first thrust was to ensure security, sovereignty and peace in Sabah.
"The Lahad Datu incident must not be forgotten. We take proactive
steps to prepare sufficient security personnel as well as our
intelligence efficiency."We must place the right technology and in strategic places as well as new army camps to ensure people exposed to the threats will be able to sleep tightly at night," said the Prime Minister.
Speaking at the breaking of fast ceremony here, which was also his first official visit to Sabah after the 13th General Election, Najib said the Government through Esscom was also formulating a model for the resettlement of all coastal settlements in Sabah.
The second and third thrusts are to stimulate development in Sabah as well as ensure the people's welfare.
"We must ensure not only we bring progress but also take into consideration the people's welfare," he said.
Najib said all these are to be done with 1Malaysia as the pillar so that all the ethnic groups in Sabah would be able to feel development under the Barisan Nasional (BN).
