Kota Kinabalu: The State Government will focus its strategies and approaches in order to invigorate the development growth of three main productive sectors, namely agriculture, tourism and industries, next year. 

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Haji Noor RM931.21 million would be allocated for these three sectors in 2021. The amount is RM34.89m or 3.89 per cent higher than 2020’s allocation of RM896.32m.

 For agriculture, RM560.39m is allocated because the State Government recognises the role of this sector in providing food security, business and working opportunity, as well as raw materials for the production sector.
