This is the view of Urban Well-being, Housing and Local
Government Minister Datuk Abdul Rahman Dahlan.
The bureau could be set up in Parliament to delve on
issues expounded by federal ministries involving Sabah's interests, he said.
The bureau would supplement other news sources, including
the Malaysian National News Agency (BERNAMA) which Sabah's newspapers relied
on.
"Over dependence on BERNAMA and other sources may
stifle Sabah's media effort to live up to Sabahans' aspirations, especially on
the implementation of federal government policies," he said at a dinner
with editors and bureau chiefs of print and electronic media in Kota Kinabalu
last night.
He commended Sabah's media for their role in
strengthening national unity and dissemination of information on government
policies and programmes for the benefit of the people.
