BARISAN Nasional (BN) and Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) will see a close to 50-50 ratio in the distribution of parliamentary seats for the upcoming general election, Sabah BN liaison chairman Bung Moktar Radin said today.

He said while the list of candidates for BN and GRS has yet to be finalised, there will be no clash of seats, as what happened in the state elections in 2020.

“All in total is 25 seats (in Sabah). So it’s a win-win for us (BN and GRS).

“There will be a lot of new faces (BN candidates)... about 80%,” he told reporters after opening the Kinabatangan Umno division delegates’ meeting in Sandakan.

Bung, who is also Sabah deputy chief minister, said Sabah BN and GRS will announce their candidates simultaneously in Kota Kinabalu soon. – Bernama, October 15, 2022.
