The Kota Kinabalu High Court today set June 26 to hear the judicial review application filed by Sabah Forest Industries (SFI) against an order by the Human Resources Ministry to recognise the Sabah Timber Industries Employees Union (STIEU).

A 24-year fight by workers of Sabah Forest Industries (SFI) for their right to union recognition may come to a head soon as the Kota Kinabalu High Court will hear on June 19, 2015 whether to grant the company leave for application for a judicial review affecting the matter.
