Its president Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili (pic) said as far as PBS is concerned, the peninsula-based party is free to do what it wants in accordance with its constitution.
“This is a democratic country. Any party can establish their branches here as long as they comply with the Registrar of Societies and their own constitution.
“We don’t have a say (on the issue). We’re just observing,” he said during a Chinese New Year celebration here on Wednesday.
Ongkili added what is ideal for Sabah is to have political parties which are multi-racial, just like his own party, PBS.
