Sabah should also rename CM post to ‘premier’ like Sarawak, suggests local leader


KOTA KINABALU: The Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) state government should emulate Sarawak and rename the chief minister position to “premier”, says Sabah STAR secretary-general Edward Linggu.

He said the Sabah state assembly needs to discuss this and take a stand in support of the Sarawak assembly’s constitutional motion Tuesday (Feb 15) to replace the term “chief minister” with “premier” and change “assistant minister” to “deputy minister”.
