KOTA KINABALU: The federal government wants to give Sabah its 40 percent net revenue as stipulated under the Malaysia Agreement 1963, but there is not enough money to do so, says Lim Guan Eng.

The Finance Minister said it is not that the federal government was dilly dallying on the matter, but rather it was thinking of the current financial situation.
