PETALING JAYA: The unity government leadership council will discuss the coming Sabah state assembly elections, says PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli.
Rafizi said this is because most of the parties set to participate in the elections are partners in the federal unity government, Sinar Harian reported.
“Although the parties in Sabah have some differences in opinions, they are still members of the (unity government leadership) council, including Warisan, Umno, Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) and others.
“So the process of negotiations will proceed as directed and monitored by the central leadership. At the PKR level, my instruction to the machinery (in Sabah) is to strengthen our presence and service for the people.
