Opposition supports Dompok

Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Vice President Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan fully supported UPKO's call for the Federal Government to give Sabah its five per cent share of the State's oil royalty.

He said the proposal voiced by UPKO's president and Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Tan Sri Bernard Dompok should be supported as an immediate and first step towards giving justice back to Sabah.

Dr Jeffrey said the Federal Government should not be receiving the five per cent royalty of oil sourced from Sabah as it is receiving all the tax revenue of more than 40 per cent as well as of Petronas' profit.
