Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman said if the proposal was approved,
the allocation for the projects would benefit some 23,000 residents.
"We hope our proposal will be approved to solve the problem of clean
water supply disruptions faced by the residents since three years ago,"
he said after launching the month-long state-level Pesta Kaamatan or
Harvest Festival, here, today.
Earlier, Musa said Sabah was the best role model in the implementation
of the 1Malaysia concept mooted by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun
Razak.
He also said that Pesta Kaamatan was the best platform for
strengthening unity among the multiracial population in line with the
concept.
"Clearly, this annual tradition celebrated by the Kadazandusun-Murut
community can promote the uniqueness of the various cultures and local
customs, besides improving the people's socio-economy through programmes
such as the homestay and small and medium industries," he added. --
