Kota Kinabalu: Parti Maju Sabah (SAPP) cukup berpuas hati kerana Hari Sabah pada 31 Ogos akhirnya diwartakan tahun ini, walaupun mengambil masa 12 tahun sejak langkah itu dicetuskan meenerusi sambutan tidak rasmi di Taman Chong Thien Vun, di sini.
Presiden parti, Datuk Yong Teck Lee, mengiktiraf peranan penting yang dimainkan oleh Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan dalam membawa cadangan untuk mewartakan Hari Sabah ke kabinet negeri.
