Duty to pay Sabah's net revenue entitlement crucial, says Sabah Law Society


KOTA KINABALU: The duty to pay Sabah's 40% net revenue special grant is crucial as it will bridge the economic gap and ensure the well-being of people in the state, says Sabah Law Society (SLS) president Roger Chin.

He said that Sabah’s 40% entitlement which was due immediately after the formation of the Federation of Malaysia on September 16, 1963, is a fundamental right granted under the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63).
