RM226m UMS agri campus a boost for economy


A bright future can be expected for the State's agricultural sector with the setting up of Universiti Malaysia Sabah's (UMS) School of Sustainable Agriculture, here.

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman said the expertise of lecturers and researchers at the upcoming campus would be a catalyst in achieving the Government's goal of empowering the State's agricultural sector.

He said agriculture had been earmarked as one of the sectors to spur the State's economic growth.

Musa said upon completion, the UMS Sandakan campus would become one of the main players in turning Sabah into an agricultural state.
