advisory – August 2020, No. 6

We are entering an exciting month, September: Sabah will hold state elections on September 26, 2020, and Sabahans and Malaysians are looking at the elections with great eagerness. Last month itself saw Musa Aman, the former Sabah Chief Minister, disputing the dissolution of state legislative assembly by the incumbent Chief Minister and subsequently filing a lawsuit against the state’s Governor, TYT Juhar Mahiruddin, and to his shock, failed.
