Anifah Aman,Sabah,State Rights

She says the vulnerability required for her role in 'The Substance' was both demanding and exciting.

KOTA KINABALU: The alleged"blunder" in the state government's argument at the appeals court to block the Sabah Law Society from seeking a judicial review on revenue rights has a silver lining, Senator Tan Sri Anifah Aman said.

"Personally, I see that the Malaysia Agreement 1963 issue brings all Sabahans together despite our differences. Anifah's statement comes amid a political and public backlash after the state-appointed counsel Tengku Datuk Fuad Ahmad argued that the state rights in the Federal Constitution were not"absolute or mandatory" and were just"aspirational" at the Court of Appeal hearing on Thursday .

Amid the fallout from the Court of Appeal hearing, Hajiji stressed that the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah government has not never given up on its fundamental constitutional rights in relation to the 40% net revenue special grant under Articles 112C and 112D of the Federal Constitution.
