Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 70202, member: 636"] Political coalitions partnering at the federal level are fielding competing candidates across multiple constituencies as Sabah's state election campaign begins, with PKR vice-president Ramanan describing the clashes as friendly contests comparable to household disagreements. Despite cooperation agreements between Pakatan Harapan, Barisan Nasional and Gabungan Rakyat Sabah intended to form the next government together, allies will face off in seats including Bandau, Moyog, Kemabong and Karamunting. At least six constituencies will feature relatives competing against each other, continuing a longstanding pattern in Sabah politics. Brothers Bolkiah Ismail and Harun Ismail will compete in Pitas, while siblings Shone Eric Jr and Edna Jessica Majimbun both seek the Inanam seat.
