The upcoming Sabah state election provides an opportunity for the federal government to demonstrate its initiatives in the region, according to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. He stated that his administration has addressed several key issues for Sabah, including returning regulatory control of the electricity supply and allocating funds for infrastructure problems.

The Prime Minister cited the approval of three million ringgit to resolve water supply issues at Universiti Malaysia Sabah as one example of federal support. He also mentioned reviewing the Sabah Pan-Borneo project, emphasizing that its implementation would be improved through transparent tender processes. Anwar expressed concern that the project had lost several years and lagged behind the nearly completed Sarawak section.

When questioned about local political sentiments, he asserted that political parties should focus on fundamental issues like resource management and governance rather than regional identity. He warned that a lack of cooperation with the federal government would ultimately disadvantage the people of Sabah.
