KOTA KINABALU: Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) is counting the days for the anti-party hopping law to make a comeback in Sabah.

When the party helmed the state government back in 1988, an anti-hopping law was passed by the state assembly.

Towards this end, Bangkuai said PBS was resolute in its support for the tabling of the Bill and called on all state lawmakers, including the Opposition, to give their vote of approval. He said that strengthening democratic values and ensuring the people's voice remained at the forefront of political decision-making that has always been the party’s vision since 1985.

“Furthermore, the party recognises that the anti-hopping law will promote transparency and fairness in the political arena as party defections have often led to the collapse of governments, resulting in wastage of public resources and instability in the administration,” Bangkuai said.
