OVERWHELMING SUPPORT FOR BN





MEET....Prime Minister Najib Razak and Chief Minister Musa Aman at the meet the people sessions in Kudat Town.

SABAH Chief Minister Musa Aman said the turnout of 50,000 people during the Prime Minister Najib Razak meet-the-people sessions shows the overwhelming support for Barisan Nasional.

“Wherever he went the reception has always been overwhelming and warm. People from all over Sabah have not failed to come and show their support. Tens of thousands gather just to welcome him.

"Why? Because we are very grateful to have a Prime Minister who is truly a people’s leader and who cares for our welfare and interests,” he said in his welcoming remarks at the ‘Jelajah Janji Ditepati Sabah’ launched by Najib yesterday.

Musa said Najib's exemplary leadership, commitment and sincerity in addressing issues faced by the people has been recognised by Sabahans.

"The PM comes to listen to the people, and when BN leaders meet the people, we fulfill our promises, unlike the opposition. While they only make promises, we have already delivered ours.

Musa pointed out the recently tabled 2013 Budget as proof of Najib's commitment to bring development to Sabah and improve the living standard of its people. This is proven through the allocation of RM386 million for the standardisation of prices of goods in Sabah and Sarawak.

Other schemes introduced to lessen the people's burden include the setting up of more Kedai Rakyat 1Malaysia (KR1M) to reduce the cost of daily goods as well as the Bantuan Rakyat 1Malaysia (BR1M) 2.0 scheme. Students will receive special allowances and book vouchers. Taxi drivers will also receive assistance through the Bantuan Tayar Teksi Rakyat 1Malaysia (TR1MA).

In Sabah, Najib announced the funding for the development of Kota Belud as one of Sabah's rice granaries. (Insight Sabah)
