PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Anwar Ibrahim said the meeting with Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) president Datuk Seri Panglima Hajiji Noor was held in a harmonious manner.

“This meeting reflects political maturity and a commitment to strengthening cooperation for the sake of national stability, discussing the relations between the Federal Government and the Sabah State Government,” he added in a social media post on Monday (Aug 18).

“I believe political stability is the foundation for progressing the development agenda and the welfare of the people.

Anwar said that close collaboration between state and federal leaders is vital in ensuring that people's aspirations are realised holistically and in an inclusive manner.

“I hope that this spirit of consensus will continue to be the foundation for a stronger national unity, and that the future of Malaysia becomes a progressive, fair and prosperous future for all,”

At the Dewan Rakyat on Monday, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof said that 13 out of the 29 demands under the MA63 have been resolved, and nine of the 13 were finalised during the Madani administration, while four were carried out through previous administrations.

“This includes education, health, petroleum and oil royalties,” said the Energy Transition and Water Transformation Ministry.
