“We do not want the dispute between the two parties to continue without a solution,” he said at a dialogue session on the Mandalom Communal Title issues held at Kampung Biah Tengah, near here.
The dialogue organised by the Keningau Lands and Survey Department Office involved 21 villages which sent their representatives to voice the problems faced by the beneficiaries.
