| Chief Minister Musa Aman |
KOTA KINABALU: An uncanny business acumen and prudent spending by
Chief Minister Musa Aman is the chief reason why Sabah continues to have
an excellent financial management record.
Deputy Sabah Umno chief, Salleh Said Keruak said Musa is well known
for being a savvy businessman before he entered politics and these
traits have since worked well for him since helming the government.
“We are fortunate to have a chief minister who is knowledgeable in
business and economics and Sabah’s spending is never done wantonly;
projects are well planned and development is carried out only if its
benefits the people,” said Salleh.
“In briefings by our agencies and departments, the chief minister has
never failed to stress on the need for prudent spending on government
funds and to avoid wastage.
“He insists on all agencies to be self sufficient and profit oriented.”
Salleh was referring to the announcement by Auditor General Ambrin
Buang that Sabah’s financial successes can be a benchmark for other
agencies and departments.
On the forthcoming 2013 Budget which would be tabled by Prime
Minister Najib Tun Razak in Parliament on Friday, Salleh said he hoped
that there would be lots of goodies, especially for the people in Sabah.
He said that despite getting a substantial amount of development
funds, Sabah could still do with more, in order to ensure that
infrastructure such as roads, electricity and water supply as well as
more schools be stepped up.
Keupayaan Pentadbiran negeri di bawah Datuk Seri Musa Aman adalah satu pencapaian yang luar biasa, memandangkan kekayaan semulajadi Sabah telahpun punah, namun, keupayaan Musa mendapat pendapatan untuk negeri adalah diluar jangkaan para pengeritik.
