'Suicidal': Sabah Umno leaders unhappy Bung picked to lead election machinery


PETALING JAYA: A group of Sabah Umno leaders have voiced their disagreement over the appointment of Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin to lead the election machinery in Sabah, calling it a "suicidal move".

Umno Tuaran division chief Datuk Seri Abdul Rahman Dahlan, who represents 12 ummo division chiefs at a press conference on Tuesday (Aug 18), said Umno had a good chance of winning in the coming state election, but this could be jeopardised with the Kinabatangan MP leading the charge.
