The Chief Minister added that a total of RM1.33bn has been allocated to develop human capital in the state between 2021 and 2025, including RM485mn for talent and skills development.
Chief Minister Datuk Seri Panglima Haji Hajiji Haji Noor said a total of 11,109 applications have been received from e-hailing workers to contribute to the EPF. He announced the allocation during the Sabah Moto Day 8.0 at Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) Drill Field.
At the same event, Datuk Hajiji noted that Sabah Moto Day continued to grow, drawing about 60,000 motorcyclists and enthusiasts from across Sabah, Sarawak, and Brunei this year. He said the presence of riders and visitors demonstrated that motorcycling remains popular among youths and the wider community.
He added that the event should be seen as a positive gathering that not only united participants across age, race, and religion but also contributed to the state’s economy through the influx of visitors.
Participants were advised to prioritise safety on the road, with the event expected to also raise greater awareness of road safety among motorcyclists.
Datuk Hajiji further highlighted that the State Government regards youths as an important asset and has implemented various initiatives to develop human capital. Between 2021 and 2025, RM1.33bn has been allocated for this purpose, including RM848.26mn for education assistance and RM485mn for talent and skills development programmes.
"This has never been done by previous state governments. We are committed to develop our youths who are our future leaders,” he concluded.
