Sabah in dire need for wider triple-lane roads to connect KK to major towns
Time and again we saw a mere landslip on our small double-lane roads would cripple traffic for days just like the one that happened very recently in Ranau. Virtually all traffic from Ranau, Sandakan, Tawau and Lahad Datu to the state capital were halted for very long hours.
So much time and resources were spent and spoiled because we don't have good and wider roads, all after 49 years of independence !
Our transportation would have been smoother if we have wider and triple-lane roads everywhere. The State Reform Party (Star) is of the opinion that by now we should have at least double-lane or triple-lane roads for Kota Kinabalu (KK)-Ranau-Sandakan-Tawau; KK-Tuaran-Kota Belud-Kudat; KK-Tambunan-Keningau; KK-Papar-Beaufort-Sipitang; and the Keningau-Kalabakan-Tawau.
It is now a common sight that during peak hours the KK exit roads would be very jammed. The KK-Kudat road would be jammed up to Tuaran, and so is the KK-Beaufort is jammed up to Papar at peak hours !
A better mode of public transportation including the introduction of LRT and more efficient railway must be brought by now to Sabah. We failed to understand why the UMNO-led Federal Government had conveniently neglected our needs for good and wider roads. They are building highways after highways Peninsular but they don't even give us a triple-lane roads within the KK city.
Can we not say that we are being sabotaged ? A shift in priority from Peninsular to East Malaysia must be introduced by the incoming Federal Government if it wants to stay beyond its five years term at the coming general election.
For this we challenge both Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Rakyat to offer East Malaysia a better comprehensive deals, including on infrastructures like roads, in their respective manifesto. If they failed to do so, it means this nation has failed.

jalan2 di Sabah harus diperluaskan lagi, naiktarafkanlah jalan2 di Sabah.
BalasPadamSistem jalan di Sabah memang harus diperbaiki lagi.
BalasPadamSemoga peruntukan untuk projek naik taraf merangkumi jalan raya yang sempit dan selekoh.
BalasPadamHarap projek naik taraf jalanraya di sabah akan segera di buat.
PadamSemoga kemudahan pengangkutan juga diperbaiki lagi.
BalasPadamBanyak lagi harus diusahakan terutama kawasan pedalaman yang tiada jalan raya yang wajar.
BalasPadamSistem jalan raya kini yang menyebabkan kos pengangkutan menjadi tinggi.
BalasPadamSistem jalan raya di sabah sudah semakin baik, kos pengangkutan tidak juga mahal, berbaloi lah dengan kos sekarang ini.
PadamJalan raya di Sabah sudah tidak mencukupi untuk menampung keperluan pemandu tempatan kerana semakin hari semakin banyak kereta yang dibeli.
BalasPadamTapi saya heran kenapa negeri yang dikatakan paling miskin boleh melihat penambahan kereta yang begitu cepat di Sabah? Makin banyak rakyat Sabah yang mampu memiliki kereta. Adakah Sabah betul-betul miskin?
PadamSabah bukan lagi Negeri termiskin, kita sudah semakin maju.
PadamTeruskan memajukan Sabah dari pembangunan sehinggalah ekonomi negeri tersebut.
BalasPadamMemang banyak lagi yang harus dilakukan.
BalasPadamJadi peruntukan juga harus sentiasa disalurkan.
BalasPadamBeri perhatian kepda peruntukan Sabah keran Sabah masih memerlukan sejumlah peruntukan yang besar.
BalasPadammemang bahaya jalanraya di Sabah ni.. maklumlah bentuk muka bumi yang berbukit bukau.. jalan pun terpaksa dibuat di lereng2 bukit..
BalasPadamJKR perlu melakukan sesuatu bukan sahaja untuk memastikan keselamatan pengguna jalanraya, malah untuk melancarkan perjalanan jika berlaku masalah2 seperti diatas..
