PGRS AGM First Before Any Decision On Sabah Assembly Dissolution, Says Hajiji
TUARAN, June 15 (Bernama) -- Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor said the date for the dissolution of the Sabah state assembly may be announced only after the annual meeting of Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah (PGRS) at the end of July, potentially paving the way for the 17th state election. However, Hajiji, who is also the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) coalition chairman and PGRS president, said the exact date for the dissolution has not been fixed, despite speculations suggesting it may occur in late July or early August.

Hajiji said the ruling coalition is ready to face any party in the state election, and any decision to work with other parties will be made by the GRS Supreme Council.

Prabowo Steps In To Resolve Aceh-North Sumatra Islands Dispute
JAKARTA, June 15 (Bernama) -- A territorial dispute over four small islands in western Indonesia has reached the highest level of government, with President Prabowo Subianto stepping in to mediate rising tensions between the provinces of Aceh and North Sumatra. The islands – Pulau Mangkir Gadang, Pulau Mangkir Ketek, Pulau Lipan, and Pulau Panjang – became the subject of a controversy after the Ministry of Home Affairs issued a decree in April 2025 formalising a 2022 decision to reassign them from Aceh Singkil to Central Tapanuli in North Sumatra. The move triggered protests from Acehnese communities and civil groups, including the Aceh Students' Association of Greater Jakarta, who called for the decree to be revoked and for the ministry to acknowledge what they claimed was an administrative error. bootstrap slideshow Aceh Governor Muzakir Manaf, also known as Mualem, argued that the islands had long belonged to Aceh based on historical and administrative records, and suggested that the dispute might be linked to offshore resource interests. Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, confirmed on Saturday via a statement to local media that President Prabowo had agreed to address the issue personally. 'The president has taken over the matter of the islands' boundary dispute,' said Sufmi, a close confidant of Prabowo, as quoted by national news agency Antara. He added that a decision is expected next week. Meanwhile, Home Affairs Minister Tito Karnavian defended the reclassification, emphasising that historical records indicate the dispute over the islands had existed since 1928. While acknowledging the dissatisfaction among some quarters, he noted that legal avenues such as the Administrative Court (Pengadilan Tata Usaha Negara, or PTUN) remain available.
