Sabah's UPKO to review position in BN

Malaysia Today reported that Upko threatens to review position in BN if NRD can't rectify Sabah citizen's mistake.
Datuk Wilfred Bumburing the deputy president of Upko said that the party will have to resort to reviewing its position in the Barisan Nasional if the National Registration Department cannot rectify the mistake of changing the status of an elderly bumiptura indivisual into a permanent resident because it would prove a display of incompetence from the department. He said “This action by the NRD infringes the basic rights of Malaysians in Sabah and if it is not rectified, Upko must seriously review its position in Barisan. This to me is the last straw with the mess of NRD that is making locals foreigners and foreigners citizens. There is something really wrong at the NRD. This is not the first case” This was where a Panampang resident, Yong lost her native certifate and her original IC was issued a Red IC for replacement which according to the NRD was standard operating procedure. She then showed her passport and driving licence to prove her citizenship but was told to apply for her citizenship and subsequently froze her bank accounts.

The United Pasokmomogun Kadazandusun Murut Organisation (UPKO) is a political party based in Sabah, east Malaysia. It is an ethnically-based party striving to voice the rights and advance the development of Kadazan-Dusun and Murut population of Sabah.
UPKO has 4MP's. If they were to quite BN like SAPP. There would be 6 independent MP's For Pakatan Rakyat to grab. Hopefully this would start a trend and force BN into a corner. I'm not an Anwar's fan but i am a Pakatan Rakyat fan. I hope the formation of an Pakatan Rakyat Federal Govenment materialises soon.
