"Artistes and arts enthusiasts have the potential to succeed in their respective fields and they are good examples for young people to emulate and be inspired," he told reporters at his offical residence at Sri Gaya here Saturday.
More than 100 local artistes from six artistes and arts enthusiasts associations in Sabah expressed their support for the Barisan Nasional (BN) at the function.
The associations comprised Sabah Artistes Associations (Paras), 1Malaysia Artistes Club (KA1M), Sabah Local Artistes Association (Pertisa), Music Industry and Sabah Film Entrepreneurs (Perintis), Sabah Creative Industry Group Movement (SCGIM) and Creative Film and Music Industry Association.
Paras President Abu Bakar Ellah was appointed as chairman for the Sabah Artistes Secretariat which would serve as medium between the artistes and the government.
"We will form a committee to find ways to assist the government in the general election by reaching out to the people, albeit in a more relaxed environment," he told reporters.
