MP rebuked over Sabah oil-for-funds link


Dateline 2012-02-15:

The bid by an Umno MP to link the federal development funds to Sabah and the amount of oil royalty paid has triggered an immediate rebuke from the opposition.

The Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) said that the insinuation by Sabah BN secretary and Kota Belud MP Abdul Rahman Dahlan that Sabah would suffer if the oil royalty was raised as it could lead to a reduction in federal allocation for development was nonsense.
