GRS expected to unveil candidates on Nov 11 or 12
Its chairman Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor, who is also Sabah Chief Minister said the list of candidates for GRS has been finalised and is now awaiting the official announcement.
KOTA KINABALU - Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) is expected to announce its candidates for the 17th Sabah state election on Nov 11 or 12.
Its chairman Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor, who is also Sabah Chief Minister, said the list of candidates for GRS has been finalised and is now awaiting the official announcement.
"I will probably make the announcement on Nov 11 or 12, about three or four days before nomination day,” he told reporters after presenting SMJ 4.0 Fellowship letters to 42 youths at Menara Kinabalu here today.
The Election Commission has set Nov 15 as nomination day for the election, while early voting and polling day are scheduled for Nov 25 and 29, respectively.
Hajiji said there were individuals who were dissatisfied for not being selected as candidates and decided to leave the party, but they should have prioritised the party’s interests first.
"We must have quality and should not sulk or quit the party simply because we are not chosen as candidates,” he said.
Meanwhile, Hajiji said GRS’s manifesto will be launched after nomination day, likely one or two days following the date. - BERNAMA
