Discussing the state’s development blueprint, Salleh stressed the importance of establishing top-notch infrastructure in Sabah.
He also emphasised the necessity of creating ample job opportunities and economic prospects within Sabah for its residents.
Salleh advocated for a scenario where individuals do not have to seek employment overseas due to lack of opportunities in the country, but rather choose to do so for personal growth and better prospects.
