KOTA KINABALU: The government needs to start looking at diverse sectors now so that the state and country is not dependent on any particular sector for revenue, says Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal.

Speaking at the Petronas education sponsorship award ceremony on Sunday (July 7), he said besides developing manpower skills and technology, the public and private sector must be able to "smell something that is good".
