40 per cent: Sabahans will die waiting
KOTA KINABALU: Kapayan Assemblyman Chin Tek Ming brought the heat at the State Legislative Assembly sitting, Monday, pushing a motion to force the Federal Government to reveal and repay Sabah's 40 per cent revenue share from 2022 to 2025.

Just as the House was about to call it a day, Chin grew visibly agitated, slamming four fruitless state-federal meetings and demanding answers.

Speaker Datuk Seri Kadzim M Yahya challenged whether his motion would even pass.

Chin fired back, saying whoever opposes it does not want Sabah's money.

The 2026 D-MAX also introduces an 8-speed automatic gearbox with sequential shift across the range, including the Single Cab variant, making it the first pick-up truck in Malaysia to offer an automatic transmission in that body style.
He capped it off saying “At this rate of endless appeals, Sabahans will die waiting.”

The House adjourned to Tuesday without a decision on the motion.
