Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) secretary-general Alexander Nanta Linggi says his coalition has no affiliation with a Facebook account, which uploaded a derogatory statement late Sunday that could be perceived as trying to stir intra-religious strife.
“We believe that this is a desperate attempt by certain quarters that are out to tarnish the image and reputation of GPS following its stunning victory in the just-concluded 12th Sarawak election.
“This irresponsible account holder is using the subject of religion as a way to provoke the non-Muslims," he said in a statement carried by the Borneo Post.
He said the account holder had abused the GPS name and logo when they posted a provocative comment concerning Islam and the Malay race.
“GPS calls upon all to not be influenced by such dirty tactics played up by the irresponsible quarters, which are out to create discord among members of our racially and religiously diverse society,” he said.
GPS recently scored a landslide win in the Sarawak state assembly election bagging 76 out of 82 seats available. - Mkini
