He says NGO did not host the holiday event in Membakut, instead it was organised by the local Christian community.
| A Kadazan Dusun Murut leader has dismissed Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan's claim that a Christmas celebration held in Membakut yesterday was linked to the ongoing by-election campaigns.
"All the costs and organisation of the function was borne solely by the local villagers and community leaders," said Chang, adding that Shafie was invited to attend in his capacity as state chief minister. "This is clearly a breach of election laws. It is wrong because the by-election is ongoing in Kimanis, but maybe because they know no actions will be taken so these kinds of acts are rampant.
Contrary to Mohamad's claims, Chang said such functions in Sabah has always extended beyond political boundaries.
