What’s at stake in the 40pc court battle

The Sabah Law Society’s court action against the federal government of Malaysia and the Sabah state government has been re-confirmed for hearing this month, on the 16 May 2024.

The hearing is the Federal Attorney-General’s appeal against the High Court decision given in November 2022 that SLS is permitted to apply for remedies under its judicial review against the federal and state governments. SLS says it can and should be allowed to apply. It’s a day etched with the weight of history, a day where the echoes of unfulfilled promises will reverberate within the walls of the Kota Kinabalu Court Complex.

Imagine the schools that could have been built, the lives transformed, the communities empowered with the resources that are rightfully theirs.ADVERTISEMENT Children have grown up without the basic necessities – clean water, a stable power supply – that their counterparts in other parts of Malaysia take for granted.
