After new video emerges, Sabah Umno cites 'falling squirrels' proverb


Sabah has cited the Malay proverb “sepandai-pandai tupai melompat, akhirnya jatuh ke tanah juga (no matter how clever the squirrel leaps, it will eventually fall to the ground)” in the wake of a new video implicating state Deputy Chief Minister I Jeffrey Kitingan in the mining scandal.

According to Sabah ‘s strategic communications director Rosman Datu Ahir Zaman, the proverb best describes the situation of the ruling Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) coalition.
