TUARAN (April 26): Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah (Gagasan Rakyat) will take the lead in deciding its political partners for the upcoming state election, said its President, Datuk Seri Panglima Hajiji Noor. Speaking to reporters after launching the party's Information Machinery 'Gasak 17' and Workshop at the Bajausama Ethnic Association Cultural Centre on Saturday, Hajiji emphasized that collaboration talks would only proceed after internal consensus is achieved. 'We are the state government today. So, we will be the ones to decide who our partners will be in the coming election,' he said. Hajiji revealed that several parties have expressed interest in working with Gagasan Rakyat, with some even proposing seat allocations. However, he stressed that such proposals would be carefully reviewed through discussions with Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS), Pakatan Harapan (PH), and other interested groups. 'There are many parties lobbying for cooperation, some even mentioning large numbers of seats. We will refine these matters in future meetings,' he added. Despite the ongoing negotiations, Hajiji called on party members to remain focused on election preparations and to rally behind the candidates once final decisions are made. 'I urge all members to put aside personal interests and work hard to ensure our candidates win,' he said. He also underscored the critical role of the party's information machinery in countering misinformation from the opposition and effectively communicating the state government's achievements to the public. 'If these efforts are not explained clearly, the public may fall for slander from certain quarters. That is the key responsibility of our information machinery,' Hajiji said. According to Hajiji, election machinery at every State Assembly constituency has already been activated and is ready for the coming polls.
