Tuaran: Close cooperation between Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) and Star (BEST) will ensure that the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) wins all the seats contested in the Sabah State Election (PRN) 2025 through local parties.
Star Sabah Secretary-General Senator Datuk Edward Linggu said the cooperation forged between his party and PBS under the acronym BEST earlier this year aims to optimise the role of GRS as a coalition of local parties leading the Sabah Government.
