KOTA KINABALU, Nov 7 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said there is no alternative party that can challenge the Barisan Nasional (BN) in Sabah especially in terms of development.
He said only the BN could bring further development to the state.
"What is needed is the people's support for the BN in Sabah. We will make a difference. BN is committed to develop Sabah and we will deliver," he said when opening the 24th congress of Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS), here Saturday night.
Najib, however, reminded the BN component party to avoid disputes among themselves which could have a negative effect on BN.
"Let us not fight among ourselves because we are one family," he said.
Najib said the encouraging public confidence in the state government would strengthen Sabah as a "fixed deposit" for the BN.
"If the fixed deposit remains...insya Allah the returns will increase, and I see the latest political development in the state has given me more confidence that Sabah is the blue state for BN," he said.
However, he said Sabah should not be complacent about its position because the state governance was no longer as before.
"It is not business as usual. We hope the people in Sabah and Sarawak understands the situation where the people are now more educated and have a greater expectation from the BN which holds the state administration," he said.
Najib said the result of the 2008 general election should be taken as a lesson for the BN to endeavour to regain the party's strength.
