Bung rules out talks with GRS ahead of state polls KINABATANGAN: Sabah Umno chief Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin has ruled out any possibility of political negotiations with Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) ahead of the upcoming state election. He said his lack of trust in GRS stems from the very beginning, citing concerns over the coalition's leadership.

Bung criticised party-hopping among GRS leaders, describing it as a betrayal of the people's mandate. SPONSORED CONTENT 'When someone keeps switching parties, it shows they are thinking only of themselves, not the people,' he added. He also called for clear and firm decisions from all parties on whether to contest solo or not in the state polls.
