KOTA KINABALU: Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali has assured that the Federal Government, through his ministry, is continuously taking proactive measures to ensure that fuel supply in Sabah remains sufficient and stable.
He said close monitoring and ongoing coordination with relevant agencies will be further strengthened to prevent any supply disruptions, particularly in rural areas and critical sectors.
Armizan said this during a courtesy call on Chief Minister Datuk Seri Haji Hajiji Haji Noor at Menara Kinabalu here today.
The meeting focused on fuel supply issues in Sabah, particularly petrol and diesel, following concerns over potential shortages that could affect consumers and the continuity of the state’s economic sectors.
The Chief Minister stressed the importance of a consistent fuel supply to support the state’s economic activities, including the logistics, fisheries and agriculture sectors, which are heavily dependent on diesel.
On the same day, Hajiji also received a courtesy call from Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) Chairman Tan Sri Mohd Salim Fateh Din, who briefed him on the progress of the National Digital Network Plan (JENDELA) in Sabah as well as the Kota Kinabalu City Hall Smart City (DBKK Smart City) initiative.
Also present were State Minister of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation Datuk Dr James Ratib; MCMC member General (Rtd) Tan Sri Dr Zulkifeli Mohd Zin; and senior officials from the commission.
