Kota Kinabalu: A Sabah Barisan Nasional (BN) component laments being out of the loop surrounding the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS)-BN cooperation during the coming 15th general election (GE15).
Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) Youth Chief Dr Edwin Laimin (pic) said the cooperation was never discussed during Sabah BN meetings.
“The PBRS Youth is disappointed because whatever BN’s conditions to determine cooperation have not been informed by the Sabah BN liaison body.
“According to Article 13 of the BN Constitution, all decisions involving the interests of Barisan Nasional must be decided in the Supreme Working Council meeting unanimously.
“Unfortunately, the issue of cooperation between GRS and BN in the face of GE15 was not.
“Therefore, PBRS Youth requested that any announcement of cooperation with any party should be discussed and decided in the Sabah BN Liaison meeting before it is announced,” he said.
Edwin added that they do not reject cooperation between BN and GRS.
“But at least we should be involved in respect of the loyalty to BN all this while,” he stressed.
