Sabah Umno hoping for PBS support in Kimanis by-election


KOTA KINABALU: Sabah Umno is hoping that it will get the support of its one-time ally in the local opposition as they prepare to take on the ruling Parti Warisan Sabah in the Jan 18 Kimanis by-election.

However, Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS), led by Datuk Dr Maximus Ongkili, has yet to indicate if they will contest the by-election, while Sabah STAR, headed by Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan, said they would be sitting it out and taking a neutral position.
