He said whether it is a local or national party, both are merely platforms. What matters is the sincerity and capability of leaders to bring Sabah’s voice to a higher level.
LAHAD DATU: Former Chief Minister Datuk Seri Dr Salleh Said Keruak, emphasised that the struggle for Sabah’s rights is not the exclusive domain of any local party, but a shared responsibility of all Sabahans who want to see the state’s future safeguarded.

He said while officiating the Clustered Branch Meetings of Umno Lahad Datu Division on Friday.

Also present were Lahad Datu Umno Division Chief, Datuk Sharif Musa, along with members of the divisional leadership.

“There is often the assumption that only local parties are entitled to speak on Sabah’s rights. In truth, this struggle belongs to all Sabahans. It is not the exclusive right of any single party,” said Salleh who is also Sabah Umno Treasurer.
