KOTA KINABALU: Parti Warisan is determined to not only defend its parliamentary seats in the 15th General Election (GE15) but also recapture seats it lost due to party hopping, and win five new seats in addition.
Its vice president Terrence Siambun said the seats it will defend are Semporna, Penampang, Kota Belud, Sepanggar, Papar, Kalabakan and Labuan; while the two seats it is seeking to recapture are Lahad Datu and Batu Sapi.
For example, he cited Sipitang's timber resources and Kimanis' natural gas production, but claimed the benefits of such activities were not currently being enjoyed by Sabahans. Siambun said the party would not stop at just these seats, but dedicate its machinery to winning other constituencies in GE15.With these strategies and parliamentary seats in mind, he said Warisan had no problem with the Chief Minister’s recent statement that the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah government has no intention to dissolve the state assembly if GE15 is called.
