DURING his two-day visit to Sabah
the Prime Minister officiated the opening of the Pagansakan Bridge and the
ground breaking ceremony for the Native Court Training Centre at the same
event.
Costing RM30 million to
build the training institute will train those who will preside as judges in the
35 native courts in Sabah. It will also train village chiefs as well as
familiarize state leaders with native adats and affairs in order to make the
natives court system more relevant.
In his speech, Najib
suggested a comprehensive research to be undertaken to enhance the native court
system. This is to ensure that the native court system will not be seen as
merely a village system, he said.
“I ask that Tan Sri Richard
Malanjun and other law experts offer their opinions and suggestions on how we
can develop the natives court system so that it remains relevant in the future,”
Najib said. (Insight Sabah)
