role of IDS is still the same as when it was formed in the 1980s, Mohd
Hasnol replied: “The objective in terms of how it serves the government
is still the same but in terms of what we do, it is slightly different
now. This is because the government prioritizes the issue of security,
he said, and pointed out that for now, there has been informal
discussions on the matter and IDS will act upon it once instructed by
the government to do so.
In

immigrant issue in Sabah. IDS, however, is looking more towards how to
resolve the problems affecting the locals in Sabah and also towards the
