KOTA KINABALU: Activists here are up in arms over the state government’s announcement that the controversial Tanjung Aru Eco-Development project will proceed as planned.

“It is all according to the old plan: 30% for commercial development and 70% reserved for future developments,” he said when contacted by FMT. “He told us if Warisan came to power, the project would be scrapped. Now what has happened? Now I feel like a fool,” Muthu added. “Actually there are still too many questions on TAED. No one is clear what is happening. So it would be good for more transparency, more technical sharing so that those who understand the long-term implications can make a judgement call.”
