KOTA KINABALU: The struggle by The United Borneo Front on the issue of Borneonisation has always been shared by SAPP and this has been in our party declaration long even before UBF was created.

"SAPP even takes legal action against Federal and State Government which hearing is still pending at the High Court of Kota Kinabalu," said the Deputy President of SAPP Tuan Haji Amdee Sidik.

Hj Amdee was replying to a question if SAPP shared with Datuk Dr Jeffery's views, the head of UBF today on the issue of Borneonisation at the one-year Anniversary held at the Dowish Restaurant Jalan Bundusan attended by close to a thousand people.

The reappearance of USNO, led by its protem President protem President Datu Baharudin Tun Datu Mustapha adds spice to political activities very recently. According Datu BaharudinTun Mustapha who was also present at the function that his group would want to form a pack with UBF group, he hopes that the Register of Society would approve the registration of USNO soon.

The thinking behind, as one Ahmad Ali an observer (not his real name) put it that perhaps Baharuddin's group would represent the Muslim in the State, the UBF would look after the KDM and the SAPP would be the Chinese.

While another the newly revived Sabah People Front Party headed by Bahaman Anggap in which according to unverified report Datuk Lajim the Federal Deputy Minister of Industry is close to this group also talked of similar fashion, meaning SFP would be looking after the Muslim Bumiputra while the KDM and Chinese would be taken care of by their respective political parties.

Hj Amdee in his speech "SAPP struggle is for all Sabahans and the State of Sabah we're not partitioned base on race and religion. I'm not going back ward, I see the way forward is for Sabah in particular and Malaysia in general is to get out of the communal outlook. We can't afford to turn the clock back. I believe time has come that our State and country must be looked after by the able leaders not because of his race and tribes, gone is the old school," he said.
