Bersatu candidates in Sabah to use GRS logo

Bersatu candidates in Sabah will use the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) logo when contesting the 15th general election (GE15), says Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin.

Muhyiddin said although they would be using the GRS logo, any victory by the candidates would be counted as a win for Bersatu as it was a part of Perikatan Nasional (PN).

"That is the understanding that was agreed on, no issues or problems… the situation in Sabah is extraordinary in the formation of the government due to the mutual understanding among the parties. 

"Although it is not the same at the federal level, we accept the differences in Sabah," he said.

Muhyiddin said PN would leave it to the wisdom of the leaders of Sabah Bersatu, Hajiji Noor who is also the Sabah chief minister, the state leadership of Bersatu and GRS to form a collective understanding that will benefit the people and party.

Asked about the "cold" situation with PAS and Umno, Muhyiddin said PAS was a founding member of PN and remains an important partner, especially in facing GE15.

"PAS had repeatedly said it will remain an important partner of PN. In that sense, it is much clearer now and there are no uncertainties... this will pave the way for PN to be stronger and work more effectively to win this election," he said.
