KOTA KINABALU: The King’s decision to declare a state of emergency in Batu Sapi is for the safety of the rakyat and not to deny anyone of their democratic rights, says Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin (pic).

The Sabah Umno chief said the declaration, which also saw the postponement of the Batu Sapi by-election set on Dec 5, shows the King’s concern for the people.
