00:00 I want to refuse that we can start a Sabah politics.
00:11 My presence in Sabah is to be present in this assembly, not because of the start of Sabah politics.
00:21 The reason why I am here with my fellow colleagues in Sabah politics,
00:31 especially Amno and other colleagues in Raju, is to discuss some political issues,
00:44 especially in the work of the President, after the completion of the PRU and PRM in 6 states.
00:58 We have stated that the first state to hold the National Day of Sabah,
01:07 even though we know that the National Day of Sabah will be held at the end of the year,
01:18 but it is wrong to do it now.
01:24 So, we are not just discussing about the National Day of Sabah, but we are also discussing about the Sabah politics.
01:40 Sir, the reason why people say there is a difference, one opinion is that Barisan and Barisan seem to be working together,
01:53 and other smaller groups think that they shouldn't be working together.
01:57 What is your opinion as a central leader?
02:00 We have a belief that politics is very pragmatic, and we can work together with any party.
02:14 The important thing is that the government will be established,
02:20 and the government must get support from the people.
02:24 The first important thing is to establish a government of the people,
02:34 a government of the people in the National Burekat.
02:37 In the Burekat of the Green Party, there is also a strong relationship.
02:40 But our relationship, the Barisan National and the Green Party, is very intact,
02:47 and of course, I will support our party as well.
02:52 I say that we should be patient with any party,
02:57 regardless of whether it is a big party or a small party.
