PENAMPANG: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) candidate Joeynodd Bansin said his experience as an engineer will guide his efforts to create opportunities for young people in Moyog.
“I want to lift our youth with the knowledge and support I have, helping them with incentives, seed funding, and digital training,” he said.
He also has plans to support single mothers and other women facing health or financial challenges.
Joeynodd said flooding remains Moyog’s most pressing challenge. While long-term mitigation plans are underway, he has proposed short-term solutions, including systematic maintenance of flood-prone areas.
He also intends to upgrade rural infrastructure, including repairing roads, lighting dark village streets and refurbishing community halls.
Looking to modernise Moyog, Joeynodd plans to introduce AI and green energy initiatives, alongside modern farming technologies to support pineapple, lemongrass, and galangal growers in upper Moyog.
“With the right technology, our farmers can enhance their yields and sustain their livelihoods,” he said.
Joeynodd emphasised the importance of preserving Moyog’s Kadazan culture. He said young people must stay connected to their roots to ensure traditions survive.
“Our youth must remember their origins. Traditions and culture should never be lost to time,” he said.
Addressing online claims that GRS may align with national parties, Joeynodd highlighted the coalition’s local credentials.
“GRS is a local coalition made up of parties like Parti Bersatu Sabah, United Sabah National Organisation, Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah, Liberal Democratic Party, Parti Harapan Rakyat Sabah, and Parti Cinta Sabah.
“The government has been performing and delivering aid, this is about real results, not politics,” he said.
He called on voters, especially young residents, to give him the opportunity to serve.
“It’s time for young people to contribute to Moyog. With experience, knowledge, and a strong team behind me, I can help our community move forward,” he said.
