The Sabah government will provide boats for teachers in the district who commute from the mainland to their schools on the islands, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman.
He said the state government always showed concern for the needs and welfare of teachers who churned out skilled human capital for the future development of the state and nation.
Musa was speaking at a luncheon with the Semporna district teaching community at Dewan Bugaya here which was attended by more than 2,000 teachers and local leaders.
He said the demand for the boats was voiced by teachers in the district which has recorded a remarkable academic performance by students in their Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia (STPM) examination.
Earlier, Musa said the state government was always trying to listen and understand the needs of all segments of society, including in Semporna, in particular on the aspects of development.
At the event, Musa presented the Primary School Achievement Test (UPSR) incentives worth RM50 million to 10 primary schools to encourage excellence in the examination. --Bernama
