Pairin a strong candidate for the next Yang di-Pertua Negeri of Sabah: Ramdi Indang

KOTA KINABALU : – Huguan Siou Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan can be a strong candidate for the next Yang di-Pertua Negeri of Sabah.

Gundohing Ramdi Indang, president of Sakag Talantang Sabah Organisation, said Pairin as the paramount leader of the Kadazandusun Murut (KDM) community is more than qualified to be a Governor.

“His extensive experience, including serving as Chief Minister of Sabah (1985–1994) and as the President of Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) for decades, demonstrates his leadership and commitment to the state’s welfare, ” Ramdi said in a statement today.

He also pointed out that appointing Pairin as TYT would also symbolize recognition of the KDM community’s significant contributions to Sabah’s development and cultural heritage.

“This could strengthen unity among the diverse ethnic groups in Sabah and reinforce the state’s multiracial and multicultural fabrics,”  Ramdi, who is also a Justice of Peace, added.

He added that the Tun Fuad Stephens, the third Yang di-Pertua Negeri, was the first Huguan Siou of the KDM.

Pairin was bestowed the Paramount Leader titleafter Tun Fuad died in a plane crash on June 6, 1976.

Ramdi, however, said he was fully aware that the appointment of a TYT is ultimately the prerogative of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, based on advice from the Prime Minister and consultations with relevant stakeholders.

“Political considerations, public opinion, and the candidate’s ability to perform ceremonial duties effectively will all influence this decision, ” he said.
