Kota Kinabalu: The State Government is eager to collaborate with the private sector to elevate the State to greater heights.
State Industrial Development and Entrepreneurship Minister Datuk Phoong Jin Zhe said that among the areas to be explored is economic security, which is crucial in an increasingly interconnected world.“The global events that have disrupted supply chains, including the Ukraine-Russia war, the China trade war, and the Palestinian-Israel conflict,” he said during a fellowship dinner hosted by the Sabah Housing and Real Estate Developers Association at BMW Regas showroom here.
He urged Shareda to take the lead in adopting greenhouse gas and green building practices to align with international standards.“The construction sector, being a major contributor to carbon emissions, must adapt to these evolving regulations to reduce its environmental footprint,” said Phoong. Shareda President Datuk Chua Soon Ping emphasised that Sabah’s development could be classified into four core sectors: tourism, industrial, commercial, and residential.
Chua shared the association’s plans to utilise local resources, such as the high-purity silica sand from Kudat, to produce tempered glass for solar panels.
