The PKR vice-president has hurt the sensitivity of the Sabah people who had lost their loved ones during the intrusion by the Sulu sultan's soldiers in the state, says its president.
KOTA KINABALU: Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) vice president Japiril Suhaimin wants the state government to bar PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar from entering Sabah following her meeting with princess Jacel Jamalul Kiram, the daughter of the Sulu Sultan.
Japiril said this in a Facebook posting following Nurul’s meeting with the princess who was the spokesperson for Sultan Kiram during the Lahad Datu armed intrusion by soldiers from the Sulu Sultanate in 2013.
“Nurul Izzah has hurt the sensitivity of the people of Sabah who had lost their loved ones during the intrusion by soldiers loyal to Jamalul Kiram during the armed battle with Malaysian security forces in Tanduo. Stop her from entering Sabah,” he said.
One comment received on Facebook urged all PKR reps in Sabah to stop supporting the party.
“If Nurul Izzah remains in contact with Princess Jacel, all reps in Sabah must quit PKR and don’t expect the people of Sabah to support the party,” said Mohd Norazman Injah.
“Say No to PKR,” said another posting on Facebook.
Several pictures of Nurul Izzah and Princess Jacel were uploaded in social media and have gone viral, drawing criticism.
