Explain May 16 fiasco even after U-turn on 40% revenue rights review, ex-CM tells Sabah govt


KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah government must still explain the fiasco on May 16 despite withdrawing its legal challenge to a judicial review bid on the state's rights to 40% revenue, says a former chief minister.

Datuk Seri Yong Teck Lee said there was a need for answers over the Court of Appeal hearing the Sabah Law Society's (SLS) bid on the state's 40% entitlement to the core of governance and the protection of Sabah rights.
