KOTA KINABALU: With just a few months remaining before the Sabah state election (PRN), the existing partnership between Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Harapan (BN-PH) should focus on the narrative of ‘Suka Sama Rakyat’ (People’s Preference) rather than merely ‘Suka Sama Suka’ (personal political gains).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sabah BN Treasurer Datuk Seri Dr Salleh Said Keruak said that the mission of the BN-PH coalition should reflect the needs and aspirations of the people of Sabah, rather than being driven solely by political convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Any political alliance must prioritise the interests of the people over personal or political gains,” he remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He noted that discussions are ongoing to ensure that BN-PH and local partners collaborate for economic growth, infrastructure development, and better opportunities in Sabah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The former Chief Minister affirmed that BN Sabah will continue its partnership with PH allies in the upcoming state election, in line with their collaboration at the federal level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He reiterated BN Sabah’s commitment to political stability and governance for the benefit of the people of Sabah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This position has been publicly expressed by Umno President Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and Umno Sabah Chief Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“At the same time, we recognise the importance of engaging with local parties to ensure a strong and united coalition in the state,” he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last November, Zahid, who is also the BN chairman, announced that his coalition would form a core partnership with PH for the Sabah state election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This collaboration is also open to other coalitions and parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was followed by an informal meeting of BN and PH leaders in Kota Kinabalu, where they issued a joint statement agreeing to foster a spirit of unity in line with the existing understanding between Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and Zahid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
