PM Najib's must be sensitive in handling the coal-fired power plant issue in Sabah.

The region is "the seafood bowl to millions of Sabahans and part of a larger real economy of the Sulu Sulawesi Marine Ecoregion which supports the livelihood of 35 million people across three different countries", according to SEPA's President, Mr. Wong Tack.

While a country should move itself to greener environment now, the bold action in the adherence to the policy of protecting the world by maintaining green is utmost important today.

This brings out a question of what environmental policy our country is adopting within the so-called 1Malaysia, and as a competent participant in the world of environmental protection.

In this endeavour, we should not be double-standard, and we must now step our foot firmly on making sure that our future development ties closely with the conservation of the environment.

We must show to the world that Malaysian meant what it said in the effort of staying green.
