KOTA KINABALU: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor (pic) has urged Gagasan Rakyat’s information machinery to step up outreach efforts ahead of the upcoming State Election.

Speaking at the launch of the party’s “Gasak 17 This Is the Time” Information Seminar on Friday, Hajiji called for clearer communication on Gagasan Rakyat’s mission and the State Government’s achievements.

The seminar at the Sabah International Convention Centre marked the start of the three-day Gagasan Rakyat Annual Assembly.

He also highlighted the role of the party’s Women, Youth and Beliawanis wings in ensuring messages reach communities across Sabah.

Strong grassroots coordination, he said, would help reinforce public confidence in Gagasan Rakyat and the GRS-led government.

Around 400 information chiefs and committee members from 74 party divisions took part in the seminar, which focused on aligning strategies to face current political challenges.
