GRS points to rising revenue as it seeks renewed mandate
KOTA KINABALU: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) expressed confidence that Sabah could reach RM10 billion in revenue by 2030 if it earns a renewed mandate in the 17th Sabah General Election.

GRS deputy secretary-general Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali (pic) said the coalition’s optimism stems from its five-year track record, which saw state revenue and reserves grow steadily under the Sabah Maju Jaya 1.0 plan.

He noted that revenue rose from RM5.45 billion in 2021 to nearly RM7 billion in 2024, almost doubling the RM3.26 billion recorded in 2020, the final year of the previous administration.

Armizan also highlighted the State’s strengthened reserves, which increased from RM2.9 billion in 2020 to RM8.6 billion as of September this year.
