KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah government accepts the federal government's decision to terminate a contract related to the Trans-Sabah Gas Pipeline (TSGP), but Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal (pic) says they should have been told about it earlier.

Commenting on Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng's statement saying the engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCC) contract for TSGP was among those terminated involving China-based contractors, he said the state government was not aware of this as the project was being managed at federal level.
