Kota Kinabalu: The Sabah government wants to be included in the federal government’s plans to counter the claims of the “descendants” of the Sulu sultanate.

Masidi said although he was assured by the Prime Minister’s statement that legal action would be taken, it was only right that the state be involved in any discussions on the matter moving forward.

“I think what’s important is that Sabahans, or at least the state government, need to be included by the federal government in any issue for the purpose of preparing for a fight in an international forum,” said Masidi.
