00:00This is what Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim had to say about the federal
00:21government's commitment to implementing Sabah's 40% revenue claim. He said the
00:27issue was not just a political slogan as some had claimed, and that the government was the
00:31first to take concrete steps towards implementation. On October 17th, the Kota Kinabalu High Court
00:38held that the government had acted unlawfully and beyond its constitutional powers in failing
00:42to fulfill Sabah's rights to tax revenue for the years 1974 to 2021. The Attorney General's
00:49chambers later announced that the government would challenge defects in the grounds of
00:53judgment. Anwar also rejected claims that the federal government is not committed to fulfilling
00:58Malaysia Agreement 1963 obligations, calling them unfounded while highlighting key progress
01:03such as returning control of Sabah electricity to the state after negotiations and a parliamentary
01:09amendment.
