Sabah's political stability and development initiatives have been strengthened by the inclusion of Parti Pertubuhan Kebangsaan Sabah Bersatu (UPKO) into the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS). Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor hailed the move as a positive development for the state's political landscape, emphasizing that UPKO's participation would bolster cooperation among local parties.

In a speech at UPKO's 32nd anniversary celebration, Hajiji noted that the state government would be better positioned to prioritize the people's welfare, economic growth, and infrastructure development with political stability assured. He also called on UPKO leaders and members to work together in advancing the visions of Sabah First, Sabah United, Sabah Forward, and Sabah Prosperity, while reinforcing unity among all GRS component parties.

UPKO President Datuk Ewon Benedick and his members were commended for their support of the state's Sabah Maju Jaya (SMJ) 1.0 and SMJ 2.0 development agendas.
