Labuan Bersatu backs Suhaili's support for PM, Sabah CM

Labuan Bersatu is throwing its weight behind the decision of its divisional chief, Suhaili Abdul Rahman, who recently declared his support to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and Sabah Chief Minister Hajiji Noor.

This move has received unanimous support from Labuan Bersatu’s divisional committee, Youth, and Women's wings, as they believe it will pave the way for Labuan's future development and progress.

Labuan Bersatu deputy chief Hassan Jinin said this decision was reached during a meeting on Tuesday, where the party's divisional committee, Youth, and Women's wings collectively decided to rally behind Suhaili's endorsement of Anwar and Hajiji.

Suhaili (above), who is Labuan MP, declared his support to the two leaders on Oct 30, stemming from a desire to alleviate the burdens faced by his constituents.

Suhaili said Labuan residents have been grappling with the challenges of rising living costs and persistent water and power disruptions.

Hassan said by aligning with Anwar and Hajiji, Suhaili envisions a more prosperous future for Labuan.

“The decision to support the prime minister and Sabah chief minister is anticipated to yield several advantages for Labuan.

“One significant benefit is the potential for increased government assistance, both from the federal government and the Sabah state government,” he said.

Economic potential

Hassan said Labuan's economic potential has not gone unnoticed, and the region stands to benefit from additional attention and resources to spur development.

“The need for more economic activities to stimulate employment opportunities in Labuan is a critical concern.

“With Suhaili's support for the prime minister and chief minister, Labuan is poised to receive the attention and investment necessary to bolster economic growth and job creation.

“Labuan residents are hopeful that this decision will translate into tangible improvements in their quality of life and economic opportunities,” Hassan said.
