KOTA KINABALU: Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has arrived here for a two-day official visit.
He arrived on board a special aircraft at the Kota Kinabalu International Airport at 6pm yesterday.
He was welcomed upon arrival by Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Hajiji Noor and the three state deputy chief ministers – Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin, Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan and Datuk Joachim Gunsalam – as well as senior officials of federal and state departments and agencies.
The visit was held to strengthen cooperation between the federal and state governments, apart from facilitating comprehensive development planning for the state.
The visit is the first by Muhyiddin since Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS), which comprises Perikatan Nasional, Barisan Nasional and Parti Bersatu Sabah, formed the government after the state elections last September.
The Prime Minister attended a “Leaders with the Rakyat” programme at the Magellan Sutera Harbour Resort here last night.
Today, Muhyiddin will attend a townhall session entitled “Prosper Together With Sabah 2030” at the Sabah State Administrative Centre and visit the Kota Kinabalu district Covid-19 vaccination centre at the Federal Government Administrative Complex. — Bernama
