Kota Kinabalu: The collaboration between Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku (Star) and Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) is able to strengthen the direction of voter support from the Kadazandusun, Murut and Rungus (KDMR) community in the upcoming 17th Sabah General Election (PRN17).

Deputy President of Star Sabah, Datuk Robert Tawik, said both parties are on the same page when it comes to fighting for the rights of Sabah under the Malaysia Agreement 1963, including infrastructure development issues.

“This collaboration is timely because the current political scenario requires a coalition of parties that are able to unify the direction of the people’s support not only for the current government, but also the GRS component parties,” he said.

Robert, who is also Bingkor Assemblyman and Sabah Public Works Assistant Minister, said both parties pledge their support to the leadership of the Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Haji Noor as Chairman of the Sabah People’s Coalition (GRS).
