SANDAKAN: None of the component parties of Barisan Nasional (BN) and Friends of BN were marginalised, in fact all were treated well, said BN chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

The Deputy Prime Minister said all BN component parties and Friends of BN are always engaged to discuss various issues.

In fact, he said MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong who is also the BN vice chairman was given the honour of speaking and opening the Sabah BN Assembly and the Sabah BN Convention today proving that component parties are important for BN.

"In the past by-elections and general election, seats were also allocated, although not all, but we gave Friends of BN the opportunity to contest. There is always support for each other.

"We don't want negative views or interpretations from friends or those outside BN to saddle us, we take care of ourselves," he said at a press conference after closing the Sabah BN Assembly and Sabah BN Convention in conjunction with the 50th Anniversary and Golden Jubilee Celebration of BN here, today.
