KOTA KINABALU: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) Deputy President Datuk Robert Tawik has called for unity and responsible dialogue in addressing Sabah’s development issues, urging political players to focus on solutions rather than rhetoric.
Responding to recent remarks by Sabah Umno Youth Vice Chief Bobby Balang, Robert defended Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor’s call for public discernment amid widespread social media misinformation.
“The Chief Minister never questioned Sabahans’ intelligence, he urged wisdom in navigating unverified claims,” he said.
Robert reaffirmed GRS’s commitment to transparency, adding that corruption will not be tolerated and institutional integrity remains a priority.
He acknowledged ongoing challenges in infrastructure and utilities, but stressed that the current administration has acted to resolve inherited issues.
“Development isn’t a cover for corruption , it’s our mission. Real progress needs both better infrastructure and public trust,” he said.
He urged all parties, especially federal unity government partners, to engage constructively saying Sabahans need solutions, not soundbites.
