KUALA LUMPUR: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah cannot win the next Sabah state election on its own, says Datuk Seri Abdul Rahman Dahlan .

“It is difficult to go solo, and political history in Sabah has shown that even a local-based party using the ‘Sabah for Sabahan’ slogan cannot win. They usually secure a small number of seats,” he said. He explained that due to its colourful history, where Sabah’s state administration has changed hands a few times, having national-based parties in the mix would further empower Sabahans.

“Besides, the combination of local and national-based parties will ensure that Sabahans have a say in who becomes the next Prime Minister,” he added. He said it is wrong to assume that a parliamentary constituency under an Opposition leader who does not receive an allocation from the federal government will be left behind in its economic and infrastructure development.

PAS secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan previously claimed that the draft set a strict condition where the opposition would need to support the government on certain occasions - one of the reasons Perikatan Nasional rejected it.
