KOTA KINABALU, Feb 28 — Two parties have today called for the adoption of the anti-party-hopping law in Sabah on the day of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s first official visit to the east Malaysian state.

Sabah Malaysian United Democratic Alliance chief Amos Thien also issued a statement today calling for the law to be expedited to prevent Sabah’s image from being further tarnished by the act.
