LABUAN: People may no longer have to fly in or take an hour’s ferry ride to Labuan from the Sabah mainland under a plan for a bridge connecting the island to Menumbok.

The bridge is set to become a reality under the Labuan Development Blueprint announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to transform the international financial centre.
