KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah government must seriously look into the plight of villagers who had recently voiced their frustrations over their native land issues, says Datuk Peter Anthony.
The Sabah-based Parti Kesejahteraan Demokratik Masyarakat president said the government should also take immediate action to resolve the issues raised by the residents from five villages in the state’s interior Nabawan district.
"The fact they were willing to travel far distances to Keningau to gather peacefully under the hot sun at the Lands and Survey Department shows the matter is serious," he said in a statement here on Thursday . Dressed in native attire, the group marched towards the district Lands and Survey Department office at about 9am, to the accompaniment of traditional music, carrying placards and banners, expressing their grouses.
