00:00 A Sabah Deputy Chief Minister has dismissed claims by UMNO's Bung Mukhtar Radin that

00:08 Gabungan Rakyat Sabah leaders are all talk, citing ongoing efforts to resolve power supply

00:14 and water problems in the state.

00:16 Jeffrey Kitingan said the ruling coalition was currently looking into the long-standing

00:21 issue of power cuts, which had plagued the state even when Bung was in government.

00:26 Kitingan added that in the long run, the Sabah government is expected to generate surplus

00:31 power from other sources such as hydro, solar and ocean thermal energy.

00:37 Similarly, he said the water problem in the state was not new and had existed even when

00:42 Bung was the Deputy Chief Minister.

00:44 The only difference now was that Sabah was enduring a drought due to the El Niño phenomenon.

00:51 Kitingan said the Sabah government has implemented short-term measures to tackle the issue, such

00:56 as resolving water thefts, distributing water to villages, and cloud seeding.

01:01 The state government has also taken proactive steps to protect its water sources by gazetting

01:06 water catchment areas.

01:08 On Tuesday night, Bung said GRS leaders were all talk, no action, accusing them of repeatedly

01:14 making announcements without resolving any of the state's problems.
