KOTA KINABALU: Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia's move to pull Parti Usno out of Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) is being seen as a step to rebranding as an entirely Sabah bumiputra party, says a political observer.
Usno, which failed to win the two seats it contested on a GRS ticket in last year’s Nov 29 state election, is looking to change its lame duck political position in the GRS-led state coalition government by shaping a fresh identity, local political observer Tony Paridi Bagang said.
