KIMANIS POLLS | Parti Warisan Sabah appears to have the upper hand over BN in the hotly contested Kimanis by-election with six days to go before polling day on Jan 18.

Warisan, which heads the Sabah government, has the state resources and machinery as well as the backing of the Pakatan Harapan federal government, and it is going all out to campaign in the semi-rural seat of 29,644 voters, located 55 kilometres away from the state capital Kota Kinabalu.

Its president and Sabah Chief Minister Shafie Apdal, who is in control of the east coast of Sabah, has hit the BN-stronghold which was held by former Chief Minister Musa Aman's brother Anifah almost every day.

Shafie has been tireless, speaking at length at festive celebrations or participating in meet the voters' sessions to drive home his messages on development and how the state government can fight for a better deal for Sabah within Malaysia.
