KOTA KINABALU: A Cabinet portfolio for Sabah and Sarawak Affairs under Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) president Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili reflects the new government’s seriousness to meet the needs of the two states.

Many see the move as an effort by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin in focusing to resolve the rights of the two states under the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63).
