Kota Kinabalu: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) agreed to continue its cooperation with Pakatan Harapan (PH) in preparation for the coming 17th State Election (PRN17).

The decision was made during a GRS Supreme Council meeting on Sunday night, which discussed election readiness and other matters.

GRS said the partnership with PH had helped stabilise Sabah’s political landscape, allowing the State Government to focus on development priorities, including improving basic infrastructure.
