Borneo Front to remain a pressure group

by FMT Staff, freemalaysiatoday.com

KOTA KINABALU: Maverick politician Jeffrey Kitingan has quashed rumours that his United Borneo Front (UBF) will register as a political party.

He said it was in the process of being registered as a civil rights movement.

“We want everybody’s support,” he said. “If we are to register as a political body, then we have to be either in the opposition or the government.

“When people talk about politics, they talk about elections. I don’t want to get into the election mode.”

He added, however, that UBF would mentor political protégés and would support any party adopting its Borneo agenda into its manifesto.

“If a BN component party adopts our Borneo agenda, we will support it, but it doesn’t mean we will join (BN) as a political party.”

The statement was a reiteration of a point he made in his New Year message. He said then that UBF would be a “platform for unity regardless of political affiliations; everybody can support us because we are not biased towards any particular political alliance”.

He added: “We are a pressure group that criticises ineffective, repressive or irrelevant political models.”
