TAMPARULI: Sabahans should be grateful because the state is home to various cultures, religions, beliefs, races and tribes that all practise the spirit of tolerance and mutual respect for each other.
State Rural Development Minister, Datuk Jahid Jahim, said that what is unique in Sabah is that all races participate in celebrating various festivals regardless of religion, race and ethnicity.
“We can sit at the same table and understand each other,” he said when officiating the Kaamatan Gawai Borneo Festival of Bawang Tamparuli National School (SK), here, on Tuedsay.
Also present were the Political Secretary of the Sabah Rural Development Ministry Jilias Lintar, the Private Secretary to the Sabah Rural Development Minister William Ugau, Headmaster of SK Bawang Tamparuli Norjaip Hj Daip, President of the Parents and Teachers Association (PIBG) of SK Bawang Tamparuli Nuratiqa Gitom and Senior Assistant 1 SK Bawang Georgina Sipin.
