KOTA KINABALU, June 21 (Bernama)
In the wake of the political drama in Sabah following Sabah Progressive Party's (SAPP) announcement that they will go ahead with the vote of no confidence against the Prime Minister, Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) has stepped up its sabre-rattling.
It has made a claim that 10 Sarawak Members of Parliament (MPs) were taken overseas in an effort to prevent them from leaving Barisan Nasional (BN) to join PKR.
PKR deputy president Dr Syed Husin Ali claimed that they had been taken to Beijing.
Not all the 10 would join PKR, he told reporters after officiating the PKR's Kaamatan celebration here Saturday.
PKR vice-president Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan when asked whether other Sabahan MPs are also considering to join them, said: "Yes, definitely, there are some from Sabah."
Syed Husin said so far SAPP had not made any application to join PKR but if the party did, it would be accepted.
In Miri, Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) deputy president Datuk Seri Abang Johari Tun Openg Saturday likened SAPP president Datuk Yong Teck Lee to a political cowboy who smeared the image of other politicians in the country.
