Opposition is power crazy, says Musa
KOTA KINABALU: Sabah Barisan Nasional will not be distracted by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's claim that many of its MPs are waiting for the right time to cross over to the opposition, Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman said yesterday.
He said it was wishful thinking on the part of the Parti Keadilan Rakyat de facto leader that Barisan Nasional MPs in the state could be easily bought.
"I don't think our MPs will compromise their political integrity as they had won on the strength of the BN," he said, adding that the opposition was power crazy.
Anwar had, during his visit here on Wednesday, claimed that it was only a matter of time before many of its MPs, including those in Sabah, crossed over to the opposition.
Speaking after launching the second phase of the Bornean Biodiversity and Ecosystem Conservation programme here, Musa said the opposition should wait for the next general election and stop enticing BN MPs to join them.
Japanese Ambassador Masahiko Horie, who was also present, said investors from his country were confident of the political stability in Sabah.
"I expect more Japanese investors to come here, considering the state's stable political situation," Horie said.
