By: Winnie Kasmir Text Size: SANDAKAN: Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi ( pic ), also Umno president, has reaffirmed the party's commitment to serving the people and remaining open to political cooperation in the post-election landscape for the benefit of Sabah. Speaking here on Sunday, he said post-state election collaboration among parties was possible, emphasising that political alliances are not permanent and should serve public interest. He made the remarks while officiating the 22nd Libaran Umno Division delegates meeting, where several national and Sabah Umno leaders were also present. Ahmad Zahid urged all parties to prioritise resolving pressing issues faced by the people, particularly the longstanding electricity and clean water supply problems. He said any incoming government must focus on delivering quality public services as a core responsibility to the people. To support development goals, he called for capable and credible leaders to take charge, warning that a stable government cannot be formed with weak leadership. He also outlined key proposals for the upcoming state election manifesto, including resolving power and water supply issues, accelerating Pan Borneo Highway upgrades, and expanding TVET education to boost job opportunities. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
