KOTA KINABALU: The appointment of DAP's Penang-born Loh Ee Eng as a state-nominated assemblyman has met with more flak, with opposition Parti Bersatu Sabah describing it as a "dangerous precedent".

PBS president Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili said the appointment of the non-Sabahan by the Warisan government showed little respect on the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63).
