PETALING JAYA:

Former Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku (STAR) deputy president Ellron Alfred Angin has joined Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah, alongside several former party leaders and grassroots members from Sook, Nabawan and Tulid.

Ellron, a former state youth and sports minister, submitted his membership application to Gagasan Rakyat’s Pensiangan chief, Abdul Ghani Yassin, after the division’s committee meeting yesterday, Daily Express reported.

Ellron has since been appointed a committee member of the Pensiangan division.

Ghani said Ellron’s entry, along with that of former STAR grassroots leaders, would strengthen Gagasan Rakyat in Pensiangan ahead of the 16th general election.

He said the division had formed coordinating committees at the state constituency level and was setting up branches based on polling district centres to streamline its administrative machinery and preparations for GE16.

Gagasan Rakyat is the lynchpin in the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah coalition governing Sabah. - FMT
