This would enable Sabah to approve applications for tourism-related licensing and to issue licenses, says minister Christina Liew.

Sabah Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Environment hoped the request for devolution of power from the federal government to approve and issue five types of tourism licensing, which has been put on hold, will bear fruit.

However, MOTAC said the devolution of power to the state has yet to be implemented, considering that matters in connection with the Malaysia Agreement 1963 are still under negotiation. "These are the entry and exit license for tourism agents, licence for tourist guides, licence for tourism vehicles, ticket licensing and licence to manage tourism training schools or institutions," she said in her speech in conjunction with the 12th Sabah Tourism Awards 2019 last night.
