Sabah’s huge potential

Wild attraction: Pulau Bohey Dulang, one of eight islands in Sabah’s Tun Sakaran Marine Park. The state’s natural heritage could become an even bigger draw with better infrastructure and connectivity. — AIMI NAS/Sabah Tourism Board

I RECENTLY visited Sabah for a joint forum on poverty organised by Universiti Malaya’s Ungku Aziz Centre for Development Studies and Universiti Malaysia Sabah.

Sabah is rich in natural resources and cultural diversity, and has immense potential to become a strong economic power. Leveraging its strengths while addressing its challenges can create a robust and sustainable economic pathway.
