Gabungan Rakyat Sabah political Alliance Party

GRS, Gabungan Rakyat Sabah Party, the first Sabah local political coalition to be successfully registered under the Societies Act 1966.[5]

Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS; Template:Lang-en), also officially known as Gabungan Rakyat Sabah Party[6] is an official political coalition in Sabah established by 8th Malaysian Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin to contest the 2020 Sabah state election. This Party registered and legalised on Friday, March 11, 2022 under Societies Act 1966.[7]

Originally founded as an informal alliance, it consisted of Barisan Nasional, Perikatan Nasional, and the United Sabah Party (PBS).[8] The coalition won a simple majority in the Sabah State Legislative Assembly[9] and has since gained the support of the Social Democratic Harmony Party and three independents in the state legislature.

The coalition is the first local coalition in Sabah to be officially approved by the Department of Registration of Societies Malaysia (RoS).

History

The rise to power of GRS Alliance Party

On 12 September 2020, Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin established the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah to compete against Shafie Apdal's ruling Warisan Plus coalition consisting of Parti Warisan Sabah, the Democratic Action Party, Parti Keadilan Rakyat, and the United Progressive Kinabalu Organisation during the 2020 Sabah state election. The GRS alliance consisted of Muhyiddin's Perikatan Nasional coalition, the Barisan Nasional coalition, and Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS).[8]

During the Sabah state election held on 26 September, the GRS coalition won a simple majority in the Sabah State Legislative Assembly, winning a total of 38 seats: 17 for Perikatan Nasional, 14 for Barisan Nasional, and seven for PBS.[9] Sabah Perikatan Nasional chairman Hajiji Noor became the new Chief Minister of Sabah on 29 September.[10]

Memorandum of understanding

On 9 January 2021, the various leaders of the GRS component parties signed a memorandum of understanding to facilitate cooperation among its members and to reject any form of external interference that would disrupt the coalition. Signatories included Chief Minister Hajiji, Deputy Chief Minister and Sabah Barisan Nasional chairman Bung Moktar Radin, Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) president Yong Teck Lee, Homeland Solidarity Party deputy president Ellron Alfred Angin, Parti Bersatu Sabah deputy president Datuk Seri Radin Malleh, Sabah PAS secretary Dr Aliakbar Gulasan, Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) deputy president Arthur Joseph Kurup, Sabah Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC) chairman Peer Muhamad and Sabah Malaysian Chinese Association chairman Lu Yen Tung. In the occasion Sabah CM claimed that GRS should not be influenced by political events in Peninsular Malaysia.[11][12]

"Sabah is prospering"

In January 2021, Sabah state government under GRS initiated a strategic 5-year plan which was named after the state slogan, " Sabah Maju Jaya" (English: Sabah is prospering). It emphasised harmony with the federal government's Shared Prosperity Vision 2030.[13]

On 21 March 2021, Federal Government of Perikatan Nasional has confirmed to fully backs Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) to lead the state (with alliance autonomy given) and will give due attention to its development needs. Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said this support and relation fostered between both the state and federal governments allowed the Sabah Government to function to its best ability. [1]

Proposal to be registered as an official political party

On 24 November 2021, Datuk Salleh Said Keruak, the Club Backbenchers Chairperson of Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS), express to registered & formalised the coalition under Societies Act 1966 in Registrar of Societies (ROS), to stabilise the Sabah government political views.[14]

On 25 November 2021, most of all GRS leaders agreed with Datuk Salleh Said Keruak statement to formalised & registered this coalition as "political coalition party". The leaders that agreed include Datuk Jeffrey Kitingan (STAR), Datuk Masidi Manjun (PPBM), Datuk Aliakbar Gulasan (PAS), Datuk Yong Teck Lee (SAPP), Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin (UMNO), and other parties president as well.[15][16][17]

On 26 November 2021, Sabah State Assemblyman for Kiulu division, Datuk Joniston Bangkuai stated that all PBS leadership agreed and wanted the coalition not only formalized but registered as a legitimate coalition entity of political parties in Sabah to avoid clashes and strengthen the political views of the Sabah People's Coalition (Gabungan Rakyat Sabah) supporters.[18][19]

Peter Anthony resignation from Warisan Party on 2021

On 28 December 2021, Heritage Party (Warisan) vice-president Peter Anthony announced his resignation from Warisan, along with Limbahau assemblyman Juil Nuatim.[20] A new party, which was later named Parti Kesejahteraan Demokratik Masyarakat (KDM) was founded and chaired by Peter Anthony, with Juil Nuatim being his pro-tem deputy.[21] The party would be friendly to the ruling GRS coalition, that it will apply to be part of GRS once its registration has completed.[22] However, GRS Information Chief and PBS Secretary-general Joniston Bangkuai has instead called for GRS component parties to strengthen existing ties between the founding parties first before admitting new members. He added that although GRS welcomes support from all Sabahans, "we (GRS) must not rush to form new alliances with parties whose loyalty and true partnership have yet to be proven."[23]
