GRS' Rubin says son's decision to join KDM nothing to do with him


KOTA KINABALU: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah's Kemabong assemblyman Datuk Rubin Balang (pic) says the actions of his son Riduan to contest as an independent and join Parti Kesejahteraan Demokratik Masyarakat (KDM) has nothing to do with him.

"It is my son's decision, I have no say in it," Rubin said amid calls by Sabah Barisan Nasional chairman Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin for GRS to take disciplinary action against him (Rubin) for allegedly backing Riduan's move to join KDM.
