LABUAN: SAPP’s reluctance to allow peninsula-based parties to contest in the next Sabah election smacks of cowardice and could be due to its failure to win a single election since 2008.

Former Kota Kinabalu Member of Parliament Datuk Hiew King Chieu said it appears an acknowledgement that SAPP cannot hope to win any more elections without such “protection”.“If SAPP is a formidable force like before when Yong was Chief Minister , the party would not be afraid to face candidates from any party,” he said. Hiew said instead of making a ridiculous proposal, SAPP should focus on rebuilding the party and win the hearts and minds of the people.
