Highest level of govt handling Sulu claims, no need to ‘shout’ in Parliament, says Ongkili


KOTA KINABALU: The highest level of the Federal Government is taking action over claims by the self-proclaimed Sulu heirs and there is no need for any parties to “shout at the top of their voices” over the issue, says Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili.

The Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Sabah and Sarawak Affairs) said that the ruling made by Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Azhar Azizan Harun to reject calls to debate the defunct Sulu Sultanate claims over Sabah and the bid to seize two subsidiary companies under PETRONAS in Luxembourg must be respected.
