KOTA KINABALU: The appointment of DAP's Penang-born Loh Ee Eng as a state-nominated assemblyman has met with more flak, with opposition Parti Bersatu Sabah describing it as a"dangerous precedent".
Describing it as"setting a dangerous precedent", Ongkili said he feared the decision would now open the floodgates for non-Sabahans and Peninsular party leaders to occupy positions in the Sabah administration. "For all intents and purposes, the appointment provision was meant for Sabahans, specifically natives of Sabah. It was never meant for non-Sabahans from other states," he said.
