KOTA KINABALU: Sabah's political temperature seems to be rising even before the date for the 16th state election is announced on Monday (Aug 17).

As caretaker Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal crisscrosses the state to hand out promised native land titles to villagers, his opponents are questioning the haste with which this is being done, accusing the incumbent Warisan Plus coalition of trying to fish for votes.
