Anwar vows clean rule and aid for Sabah

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim told a political gathering in Petagas that his decades of government service have been guided by integrity rather than personal enrichment, noting he has never profited from timber concessions, contracts, or land deals in Sabah. The premier stressed that his administration's commitment involves protecting the state's rights and advancing its development priorities.

Anwar highlighted the federal government's transfer of the electricity regulatory authority back to Sabah under provisions of the 1963 Malaysia Agreement, followed by an additional allocation exceeding one billion ringgit when state officials indicated insufficient funds to address supply challenges. The Solar Madani program has installed over a thousand solar-powered poles across interior regions.

The finance minister pointed to successive minimum wage increases from 1,200 ringgit to the current 1,700 ringgit as evidence of efforts to improve living standards, expressing confidence that further raises remain possible if economic conditions continue strengthening.
