GRS secretary-general Armizan Mohd Ali said the coalition would seek to retain support in seats it already holds, while making inroads in areas it believes are winnable, at the next general election.

PETALING JAYA: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) can win between 14 and 15 parliamentary seats based on a simulation of the results of the last state election, said its secretary-general Armizan Mohd Ali.

Armizan said that GRS now has seven MPs following Upko’s entry into the coalition, and it would seek to retain support in seats it already held while making inroads in areas it believed were winnable.

“Based on the simulation, which does not include Upko... GRS could win 14 to 15 parliamentary seats on paper,” he was quoted as saying by Sinar Harian.
