Bung Moktar, 66, passed away on Thursday at a private hospital in Kota Kinabalu due to complications related to his lungs and kidneys.
The veteran politician had recently retained his Lamag state assembly seat in the 17th Sabah state election, winning by a majority of 153 votes in a six-cornered contest. He first entered national politics in 1999, securing the Kinabatangan parliamentary seat, and served the constituency for six consecutive terms, leaving a long legacy of public service in Sabah. - December 6, 2025
