KOTA KINABALU, July 7 — The Sabah Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) intends to set up an election machinery committee together with Perikatan Nasional (PN) parties in the state in preparation for the next general election.

Sabah Bersatu chief Datuk Hajiji Noor said the matter would be discussed with fellow parties in PN to form strong cooperation between them to face the election.
