Sabah Polls: GRS-PH Have Finalised Seat Allocation - Hajiji

TAMBUNAN, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) and Pakatan Harapan (PH) have finalised the allocation of seats for the 17th Sabah State Election, says GRS chairman Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor.

However, the Chief Minister said the details of the seat distribution would only be announced on nomination day.

“Yes, we already know (the allocation), but I cannot announce it now. Just wait until nomination day and you will know the numbers,” he told reporters after visiting Sekolah Agama Negeri (SAN) Pekan Tambunan here today.

Hajiji also expressed confidence that the people’s mandate would be returned to the GRS-PH coalition, citing the administration’s strong track record over the past five years.

“We will offer the best to the people of Sabah. We have achieved many successes through various socio-economic programmes for the people. We have also attracted high-impact investments to stimulate Sabah’s economic growth,” he added.

According to Hajiji, the Sabah government had spent more than RM1.3 billion on human capital development initiatives.

“We are also providing monthly assistance of RM300 to hardcore poor families listed under e-Kasih. We have achieved success in the oil and gas industry as well. The opposition may try to deny these achievements, but I believe the people are now more mature and will appreciate our accomplishments,” he said.

Hajiji added that the upcoming state election would be more vibrant, with many political parties already announcing their intention to contest.

“Let us celebrate democracy,” he said.
