Federal, S'wak govts must work together to develop NCR land, says Senator


KUCHING: The Federal and Sarawak governments must work hand in hand to develop native customary rights (NCR) land for the benefit of the people, says Senator Abun Sui Anyit.

The Sarawak PKR deputy chairman said since land was a state matter, it was the responsibility of the state government to issue land titles to native landowners under Section 18 of the state Land Code.
