Kota Kinabalu: Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) proposed two potential candidates - a lawyer and a retired senior civil servant - to contest under the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) ticket in Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan.

SAPP Information Chief Chin Vui Kai said for Kota Kinabalu, the party proposed lawyer Yong Yit Jee, 35, who led the legal team which drafted the proposed “Sabah IC Enactment 2022”.

Having practised law in Kuala Lumpur for four years, Yong has also taken up cases on public interests, such as challenging the dissolution of the Sabah Legislative Assembly in 2018 and the appointment of the Sabah Water Department Director.
