Chinese community still supportive of BN — FCAS
KOTA KINABALU: The Federation of Chinese Associations Sabah ( FCAS) strongly denounced the allegation that ‘ Sabahan Chinese are anti- BN’ and hoped the Barisan Nasional ( BN) government will continue to support the Chinese community, associations, temples and cultural organisations in Sabah, especially in terms of providing increased allocations.
FCAS acting president Datuk Dr TC Goh said the federation would continue to serve as a bridge between the Chinese community in Sabah and the state government in resolving issues pertaining to the livelihood of the people.
Goh congratulated all the successful candidates and encouraged those who lost to persevere and try again in the next general election.
“I hope every political party and their supporters will respect the democratic system and accept the people’s decision,” he said.
As GE13 has now ended, Goh urged the people to return to their respective posts and give the Malaysian and Sabah governments their fullest support to ensure peace and stability in the country.
Goh also congratulated Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and Datuk Seri Panglima Musa Haji Aman on their victories in the election and hoped that both the leaders shall continue to lead the country as Prime Minister and Sabah Chief Minister respectively.
“FCAS urges the people to be united, regardless of race, religion and political background to fully support the government in safeguarding the nation’s dignity and sovereignty, and to ensure that Malaysia continues to enjoy peace, stability and prosperity,” he said.
He also assured that FCAS would continue to serve as a bridge between the Chinese community and the state government, and at the same time, gave his blessing to the new BN state government under the leadership of Musa.
