Wednesday, 15 Jan 2020 01:35 PM MYTKOTA KINABALU, Jan 15 — Seven wildlife offenders have been arrested in the first 15 days of this year through joint operations mounted by General Operation Force, the Sabah Forestry Department and Sabah Wildlife Department, Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Christina Liew disclosed.
Liew, who is also Sabah minister of tourism, culture and environment, said wildlife-related crimes are not just a local problem but often part of an international wildlife trade syndicate associated with drug and human trafficking, as well as money laundering. “I am certain that in Sabah we have very capable, dedicated and passionate people that are working endlessly on increasing our intelligence and forensic capabilities to curb wildlife crimes.”
Liew’s speech text was read out by the Permanent Secretary of Sabah Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Environment, Jamili Nais.
