Proactive action by govt enhances people's understanding on claims by Sulu group
KOTA KINABALU: The initiative taken by the government in explaining to the people the issue regarding the claims by a group claiming to be the heirs of the Sultanate of Sulu against the Malaysian government has improved their understanding of the matter.

Leaders in Sabah, when interviewed by Bernama,  welcomed the proactive and aggressive action by the government in handling the matter to protect the country's assets and sovereignty.

Kunak Assemblywoman Azlinah Ariff said the issue by the group should be resolved comprehensively from the beginning when the claim was brought to court.

 "In the early stage, there was something secretive about the issue of the claim by the group. As such, I very much welcome what the government is doing to ensure that the people know the current status of the demand by the group,” she said.

She said the move in setting up the website which provides the latest information on the case, will also provide better undersanding regarding the issue to the public.

The website was launched last April 12 by the Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Legal and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said.

The website, which can be accessed in five languages, namely Malay, English, French, Spanish and Tagalog, provides correct and authentic facts, rebuts accusations by the claimants and enable Malaysians and the international community to follow the progress of the case transparently and truthfully.
