Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) criticizes Parti Warisan for making unrealistic promises of a Chinese finance minister and free education in the lead-up to the Sabah state election.

KOTA KINABALU: Parti Warisan's claim it will appoint a Chinese Sabah finance minister and provide free education to all is just an attempt to fish for votes, says Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah .

"Making this sort of grand promises... is no longer acceptable as it does not work," said Fredie, whose party is a Barisan Nasional component. "Voters today seek effective governance and performance rather than symbolic gestures," he said in a statement on Wednesday . "With around 1,200 schools and approximately 514,070 students, assuming RM500 per student annually, that amounts to RM257.035mil each year.Fredie also said Warisan's plan to restructure state-owned Yayasan Sabah to fund the free education agenda should not be carried out.
