00:00Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim today announced that the interim allocation to Sabah will be increased to RM1.5 billion from
00:08RM600 million pending the finalisation of the state's constitutional claim to a 40% revenue entitlement.
00:17According to Bulletin TV3, Anwar said his administration remains committed to fulfilling the claim under the 1963 Malaysia Agreement and
00:27is working out the details of its implementation.
00:31Anwar said the government does not intend to delay the process but wants to ensure that every decision is made
00:38carefully and responsibly.
00:39He said detailed discussions are continuing as any decision involving MA63 would have broader implications for federal-state relations and
00:50for other states.
00:53Anwar said the interim payment was not the final solution but demonstrated the government's commitment to fulfilling its responsibilities to
01:01Sabah while negotiations were expected to be concluded in the near future.
