KOTA KINABALU: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal is planning to relocate army bases in Sabah to the state's east coast to iron out security issues in the Eastern Sabah Security Zone (Esszone).

“The border needs the presence of a very strong force so that external threats will not pour into our state. This is one of the drastic changes that we will do," he said.
