PAPAR, Nov 15 — Seven Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) Members of Parliament will submit a memorandum to the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) next week seeking an expanded scope of investigation into the Sabah Pan Borneo Highway project, including an examination of the basis and implications of the decision to terminate the Project Delivery Partner (PDP) model in 2019.

Papar MP Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali. their spokesman, said the move was important to ensure that the PAC investigation not only focused on the project’s current status and performance, but also examined previous policy decisions allegedly affecting its implementation schedule, contractor appointments and rising construction costs.

Armizan, who is also GRS secretary-general, welcomed the PAC’s decision on October 19 to investigate the management, financial governance and physical implementation of the project following the tabling of the Auditor-General’s Report (AG’s Report) Series 2/2026.
