沈桂贤移交上议员拨款
砂人联主席拿督沈桂贤上议员于日前在党总部移交上议员拨款予古晋25个团体。 他在仪式上，与各团体代表交流，并借此将他们的心声向国家领袖反映，包括带到国会。 另外，他强调，经常在基层走动，诚恳为民服务的领袖才是符合资格代表该党出战来届州选。 他称，要成为该党来届州选举的候选人，该名“潜能候选人”必须很早就从基层做起，默默的为民服务，不能因为是自己的朋友就被选为候选人，因为人民若不晓得有关候选人，也是没用的。 他绝对不允许有关领袖认为自己在党当中的权利及权位高攀，就能代表出战的情况出现。 他说，本身的确有要求党各个支部呈上候选人名单，所以，身为党魁，必须了解及确保有关潜能的候选人是真正符合资格后，才做出决定。 “本身的责任，就是要确保所有支部都在这方面做出配合，即让他（主席）知道在各选区所推荐的候选人是谁，是否有能力代表党出战。” 他认为，让人民了解及认识有关候选人的确是相当重要的，因为倘若人民不认识你，要如何让人民给予你支持？
