The ETP projects were unveiled by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak during the launch of the SDC Open Day: Corridors and Regional Cities Programme here.
 
The one-day event presented comprehensive information from the various labs after an intensive eight-week programme held last year with focus to drive the economic corridors of Sabah to bring the state on a par with other high-income  Asian economies.

The ETP projects cover tourism, palm oil, agriculture, oil and gas, education, manufacturing and logistics. 

Najib said the government had spent much effort and resources on the ETP to ensure that all strata of societies benefited from it.
 
The government is constantly monitoring and reviewing directions, strategies and programmes for ETP to ensure the nation emerges as a high-income nation."
 
The government has set a target of nine per cent growth annually and aspires to achieve RM110 billion GNI for Sabah in 2020, which translates into GNI per capita of RM32,400.
 
"The government is committed to realising our vision set out in the ETP for Malaysia to become a fully-developed and high-income nation by 2020."
 
Driven by 12 National Key Economic Areas,  131 Entry Point Projects have been identified nationwide within the designated sectors to help grow the national economy with the goal of a per capita income of RM48,000 and more than 3.3 million new jobs by  2020.

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman commended the SDC for  implementing various projects, noting that RM1.2 billion had been effected in transforming the economic landscape of Sabah.
 
Thanking the prime minister for ensuring Sabah's economic development moves in tandem with corridors in the other states, Musa said the state had received more than RM500 million from the Public-Private Partnership fund for the various ETP projects.

Najib also presented to Musa a mock cheque for RM459.2 million approved by the Federal Government under the Facilitation Funds for six priority ETP projects in Sabah.

To be implemented at a cost of RM5.1 billion,  ETP projects range from tourism to health as well as power plant projects.

    1. negeri Sabah ni luas dan kebanyakan kawasan terdiri daripada kawasan luar bandar. jadi, ia memerlukan satu tempoh yang panjang untuk memajukan semua kawasan ni. kadang2 ia juga bergantung pada kepimpinan wakil rakyat di sesebuah kawasan. kalau wakil rakyat tidak aktif, bagaimana kerajaan tahu untuk saluran apa2 keperluan pembangunan di sana.

    2. Kerajaan tidak dapat membuat pembangunan di semua tempat dalam masa yang singkat, pasti tempat lain akan di beri pembangunan juga.
