Despite rumours of trouble, the divisional meetings proceeded without a hitch, says the party's deputy secretary-general.
MIRI: The Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party’s (SPDP) triennial general assembly in Bintulu this month is expected to be a smooth affair.
Its deputy secterary-general Paul Igai said based on the feedback from divisional meetings so far, no divisions were facing trouble.
“It’s quite surprising because the meetings went quite well (and) the preparations for the minutes of the meeting seemed to be more efficient than before,” he told Bernama here today.
Speculation had been rife about the likelihood of trouble in five constituencies which used to be represented by SPDP elected representatives but who had either quit the party or were sacked for insubordination.
The five are Sylvester Entri (Marudi), Peter Nansian Ngusie (Tasik Biru), Rosey Yunus (Bekenu), Paulus Palu Gumbang (Batu Danau) and Mas Gading MP Datuk Dr Tiki Lafe. They have now formed the Barisan Nasional Club to pursue their political career.
On the upcoming triennial general assembly, Igai said it would, among other things, focus on strengthening unity within the party.
“We are moving forward positively, leaving all the sad episode behind,” he said.
Apart from the SPDP, the other Sarawak BN component parties are Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB), Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP) and Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS).
