Datuk Yong Teck Lee has to choose PN or GRS

Masidi..SAPP cannot simultaneously belong to both coalitions.

KOTA KINABALU: Masidi Manjun, the secretary-general of GRS, has reiterated his request for the Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) to make a clear decision regarding its affiliation with either PN or GRS, emphasising that the party, led by Datuk Yong Teck Lee, cannot simultaneously belong to both coalitions.

“I have previously stated this. Ultimately, SAPP must determine whether it wishes to align with one side or the other. There is no alternative,” he remarked in a video shared by Sabah Media on Facebook.

Despite this, Masidi expressed optimism that the issue could be resolved in a cooperative manner.

He noted that discussions regarding seat allocations among GRS members for the upcoming state elections have not yet commenced, as the coalition does not anticipate significant complications.

Furthermore, Masidi clarified that Gabungan Rakyat Sabah is not currently considering PAS as a potential partner for the next Sabah elections, citing the Islamic party’s existing alliance.

“Not at this time. PAS is part of Perikatan Nasional, after all,” he stated. This stance remains unchanged even though PAS holds a position in the state government through its state chief, Aliakbar Gulasan, who is an appointed assemblyman.
