KOTA KINABALU: Sulabayan Assemblyman Datuk Dr Jaujan Sambakong criticised the poor infrastructure in Semporna despite its status as a major tourism hub, noting the lack of a proper jetty and disorganised boat landings that pose safety risks.
He highlighted issues like gravel roads, clogged drains, and unclear maintenance responsibilities.
Questioning the RM1.18 billion supplementary budget, he said it suggests poor initial planning and doubts whether the funds can be spent effectively with the year already half over.
