Budget 2021: Lower development allocations for Sabah disappointing but understandable, says Jeffrey Kitingan


KOTA KINABALU: A lower allocation of RM5.1bil for Sabah’s development under Budget 2021 is disappointing for the state, says Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan (pic) said.

The Sabah Deputy Chief Minister said the allocation was lower than last year’s budget of RM5.2bil given for 2020 and gave the impression the federal government was treating Sabah the way previous federal governments had always done.
