\u201cMatters related to immigration matters, national registration, border control, illegal immigrants and the encroachment of foreign fishermen in the Exclusive Economic Zone, have been discussed by the Sabah and Sarawak Security Working Committee,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The prime minister said matters related to Sarawak’s socio-economic development such as poverty issues, road infrastructure, health, education, Internet and telecommunication access, land charges and rentals under the Sarawak Land Ordinance and special grants to Sarawak under Article 112D of the Federal Constitution had also been discussed by the Socio-Economic Working Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have high hopes that arising issues can be resolved amicably, which in turn will help strengthen ties between the Federal Government and the Sarawak Government in the interest of the people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
