KOTA KINABALU: Hopes for local opposition parties to cobble together an electoral pact have dimmed further with Parti Warisan Sabah president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal warning potential partners not to issue ultimatums.

Shafie said Warisan was ready to discuss and negotiate with other parties on electoral seat sharing arrangements for the coming general election, but hoped that “parties do not issue ultimatums.”
