Andi said the museum would serve as a centre for preserving and conserving ethnic cultural heritage while supporting cultural tourism and the local economy, with the Ministry and Sabah Museum Department continuing to monitor its implementation.
Responding to a supplementary question, he said the Ministry had taken note of concerns over the management of Bukit Tengkorak Museum and the Early Islamic Burial Museum on Omadal Island in Semporna and would work to address the issue.
