KOTA KINABALU: On May 16th, 2024, the Court of Appeal will hear the Federal Government’s appeal against the High Court decision to grant leave to the Sabah Law Society for a judicial review on the Federal Government’s constitutional obligation to pay 40% of all its revenue derived from Sabah, in accordance with Article 112C, Article 112D, and Section 2, Part IV of the Tenth Schedule in the Federal Constitution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The outcome of this appeal will have a tremendous impact on the future of Sabah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is a crucial moment to stand up for the principles of the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63) and ensure that Sabah’s rights within the federation are respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To show our support for the Sabah Law Society’s legal action against the Federal Government, let us all gather at the High Court in Kota Kinabalu on May 16th, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our presence will impress upon the authorities in Kuala Lumpur that Sabah’s constitutional rights must be judiciously respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is a call to action for all Sabahans who believe in the fair and equitable treatment of our state within the Malaysian federation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let us unite and make our voices heard on this pivotal day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
