KUALA LUMPUR: The current status of the 1BestariNet project and the development plans for Labuan Port are set to be key topics of discussion during today’s Dewan Rakyat sitting.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, Datuk Mohd Suhaimi Abdullah (PN-Langkawi) is expected to question the Minister of Education about the 1BestariNet project and any legal action taken against the company awarded the tender.
Datuk Dr Suhaili Abdul Rahman (Independent-Labuan) will inquire about the status of the upgrades for the ageing Merdeka Port in Labuan, whose usage period is set to expire in 2026. He will also seek updates on the Labuan Integrated Port development plans. RSN Rayer (PH-Jelutong) will ask the Minister of Transport to address recent complaints regarding Malaysia Airlines (MAS) service performance.
Datuk Abdul Khalib Abdullah (PN-Rompin) plans to raise a question with the Digital Minister about the government’s efforts to safeguard the code of ethics and data privacy protection, given the rapid growth of artificial
intelligence (AI) usage in Malaysia. Following these inquiries, the proceedings will continue with the winding-up debate on the Supply Bill (Budget) 2025 at the policy stage, with contributions from ministers across various ministries.
