KOTA KINABALU: Barisan Nasional's Upko acting president Datuk Seri Madius Tangau and his secretary-general Datuk Donald Mojuntin has entered into discussions with Parti Warisan Sabah president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal.
Madius and Donald turned up at Shafie's residence at Taman Golfview here Thursday (May 10) at 11.30am and are currently in closed door discussions with Shafie.
They are slated to issue a statement later.
Warisan and its partners PKR and DAP are hoping to form the next government with a couple more assemblymen from Sabah STAR or Barisan Nasional.
Shafie and his team won 29 seats matching the number won by caretaker chief minister Tan Sri Musa Aman of Barisan.
Two seats won by Sabah STAR held by Dr Jeffrey Kitingan is crucial for either Warisan or Barisan to obtain a clear 31-seat simple majority in the 60 member assembly.
Upko won one parliamentary and five state seats.
