The Sabah Suluk community has been reminded not to be influenced by lies of the Opposition who play the race card to score political points.

Sabah Suluk Cooperation Council secretary Mohd Zaki Harry Susanto said they should act wisely and do not rush into making a stand as the Suluk community should not be made a scapegoat by those with a personal agenda.

"The decision to support the Opposition is a big loss because the Opposition never helped the Suluk community. Suddenly, they become a superhero to help the Suluk community by promising things beyond their means.

"They are just empty promises," he told Bernama here, today when commenting on images on social media of women believed to be Suluks, holding banners in support of a leader of an Opposition party.

Mohd Zaki said it was very unfortunate if the Sabah Suluk community support those who are incapable of forming the government as was an act of futility.

"The images do not reflect the real stand of the Sabah Suluk community who remain as strong supporters of the present government," he added. - BERNAMA
