States need own anti-party hopping laws or amendments to state constitution, says Upko chief

KOTA KINABALU: State governments should have their own anti-party hopping laws and amend the state constitution if needed, says Upko president Datuk Seri Wilfred Madius Tangau.

“I hope that state governments will take similar steps to amend laws at the state level, including their respective state constitutions,” he said in a statement Saturday (Feb 19), in reference to the Anti-Party Hopping Bill set to be tabled in Parliament in March.
