DATUK Seri Anwar Ibrahim is defending his assertion that Putrajaya has provided Sabah with more than the constitutionally mandated 40% of revenue. The Prime Minister was firm in his response to critics, some of whom are aligned with his administration.

Anwar faced criticism after stating during the Kaamatan Harvest Festival on May 31 that Sabah had received RM16 billion in overall allocation, surpassing the stipulated 40% revenue entitlement.
