Allocations for Sabah, S'wak as regions should be on par with peninsula - Upko

Upko president Wilfred Madius Tangau has called for allocations to Sabah, Sarawak and the peninsula to be balanced after the status of Sabah and Sarawak as a region in the Federation of Malaysia is gazetted.

In this regard, he said Sabah and Sarawak’s allocation should be one-third of the funds under the Malaysia Five-Year Development Plan as well as the national annual budget.
