KOTA KINABALU: After days of discussions between Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) parties, Sabah looks set to announce a new chief minister by Tuesday (Sept 29).

The state Information Department sent out a notice on Monday (Sep 28), saying that the swearing-in ceremony would take place at Istana Negeri at 10.30am tomorrow (Sept 29).

However, it is not known who will helm the post.

Sabah STAR president Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan, when asked on Monday (Sept 28), said the swearing-in might be today, but did not reveal who it will be.

Sabah Barisan Nasional chief Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin and state Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) chief Datuk Hajiji Mohd Noor are front-runners for the post.
