IT was to help locals in the interior who live and die without benefitting like other more fortunate Malaysians that led the Government to establish a mobile unit within the Registration Department.

It is largely thanks to the vision of not any politician but the concern and vision of the first Sabahan to head the judiciary, Tun Richard Malanjum, soon as he first became Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak in 2006.
