The Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) was formed in year 1994. According to the president, Datuk Yong Teck Lee, SAPP was formed because of the urgent need for a state- federal reconciliation in order to bring Sabah into the mainstream of development. Later, the party joined BN in continuing to strive for the rights and benefits of East Malaysians. After the 3/8 political tsunami, although two parlimentary candidates (Sepanggar-Eric Enchin Majimbun, Tawau-Dr. Chua Soon Bui) and four state assembly candidates of the party won in their contested territories, the party's leadership began to voice out their discontentment towards the BN government and rumours arise that this party will withdraw from the coalition of BN. For this reason, the party's leadership is strongly condemned by others, especially many respective BN leaders.
That is the voice of the people.
