DPM Fadillah urged to consider Sabahans' views on having two village development committees


KOTA KINABALU: The absence of Madani village development committees (JKDM) in Sarawak raises the question of whether it is only meant for states where Umno has a presence, says Datuk Joniston Bangkuai.

The Kiulu assemblyman and Sabah Assistant Tourism, Culture and Environment Minister also questioned the relevance of the JKDM as it essentially duplicated the roles of the long-established village development and security committees (JKKK).
