KOTA KINABALU, Aug 22 — The federal government spent RM26.4 billion between 2001 and 2018, in the form of grants, loans and subsidies to improve the quality of electricity supply services in Sabah. Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Datuk Shamsul Anuar Nasarah said the government’s efforts and initiatives have paid off, judging by the significant decrease in power supply disruptions from 4,109 minutes in 2005 to 205 minutes in 2019 as measured by the system average interruption duration index (Saidi).
