KIULU: Post-election political dynamics must be handled with maturity and guided by public interest and state stability to ensure smooth governance, said Assistant Minister to the Chief Minister Joniston Bangkuai.

He said post-election cooperation is a strategic necessity to secure administrative stability and ensure development plans can be implemented without disruption, noting that policy delivery depends on a firm governing foundation.

Joniston, who is also Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) information chief, said the coalition remains clear in its direction while taking a pragmatic approach focused on effective government, smooth public services and progressive resolution of local issues.

He added that political maturity is reflected in the ability to manage differences constructively without undermining shared interests or social harmony, especially in Sabah’s multiracial and multireligious society.
