Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman
said Teo, the Special Functions Minister, would also oversee the state Economic Planning Unit (EPU).
“Part of his duties will be to see what more can be done to ensure continued support from the community for Barisan Nasional,” Musa said after chairing the first state Cabinet meeting following the 13th general election.
Sabah Barisan suffered losses in Chinese-majority areas, notably the Kota Kinabalu state and Sandakan parliamentary seats held by former Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Dr Yee Moh Chai
and former federal deputy minister Datuk V.K. Liew
respectively.
