Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin criticizes GRS for failing to deliver on its promises, citing persistent poverty and inadequate infrastructure.
The ruling Gabungan Rakyat Sabah ( GRS ) administration is the most ineffective government in the state’s history, says Sabah Umno chief Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin . Speaking at the Sabah Umno Gerak-17 event for the Bengkoka constituency on Sunday (Dec 29), Bung Moktar criticised GRS for failing to deliver on its claims of creating thousands of job opportunities.“Where are the job opportunities they boast about? If there were indeed so many jobs, why is poverty still so rampant,” he said.
He also said that there are unresolved basic infrastructure issues, including poor access to clean water and electricity across many districts, with no clear solutions provided. “The roads in Sabah are like the surface of the moon. While the government focuses on Pan-Borneo projects, existing roads are left in severe disrepair, damaging the people’s vehicles from east to west Sabah,” he added. Bung Moktar further criticised the government’s reliance on political donations, describing it as a sign of inefficiency. “Representatives claim they do not have enough to eat and rely on donations. If this is the kind of government the people have chosen, it is time to vote for change in the next election and not repeat past mistakes,” he said. Promoting Barisan Nasional as a better alternative, Bung Moktar pledged that Sabah Barisan would prioritise key infrastructure projects, including upgrading the Kudat airport, if given the mandate to govern. He said the coalition would also focus on improving the quality of life for Sabahans by lifting eight of the state’s poorest districts out of poverty and offering business loan opportunities to young entrepreneurs. “The coalition positions itself as a more effective government, ready to address long-standing issues and improve the quality of life for Sabahans,” he said, urging voters to reject GRS in the next election, scheduled by September next year
