Proposed Labuan bridge project was never withdrawn, says PM

LABUAN: The proposed Labuan-Menumbok bridge construction project was never withdrawn and has been discussed several times at the Cabinet level, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

"Two or three weeks before Parliament was dissolved, the proposal for the construction of the Labuan bridge was discussed at the Cabinet level, touching on two issues, the first being that the construction of the Labuan bridge should continue, only the formula of how it is to be implemented (requires further deliberation)," he said after delivering his address at the Keluarga Malaysia Tour at the Labuan Financial Park Complex Convention Hall on Sunday (Oct 23).
