Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) comprising Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB), Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS), Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP) and Progressive Democratic Party (PDP) is determined to win more seats in the upcoming 12th Sarawak election.
PBB vice-president Stephen Rundi Utom (above) said following the end of the emergency proclamation in Sarawak by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong on Wednesday, Sarawak had to hold the state election within 60 days.
The Sarawak utilities minister said GPS had already activated its election machinery and was now fully prepared for the polls.
"GPS is focusing on retaining all its seats won in the 11th state election. In fact, it is confident of winning more seats this time,” he said when contacted today.
He added that GPS was ready to face the opposition with the determination to steer Sarawak towards becoming a developed state, as had been stated by Chief Minister Abang Johari Tun Openg in the Post-Covid-19 Development Strategy 2030.
In the 2016 state election, the four local parties in GRS that came under BN at the time, won 72 of the 82 seats contested, before deciding to quit BN and setting up GPS in 2018.
