Sabah to digitalise data on immigrants in the state

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah will now embark on digitalising the data of immigrants in the state, with the hope of completing the exercise by the end of the year.

Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan said a pilot project featuring over 14,000 respondents from the Sawit Kinabalu estate found that almost half of them immigrated illegally.
