S’wak DAP protests EC splitting Pending area into 3 seats
Pending assemblyman Violet Yong urges the EC to explain its justification for the move, saying it will split up the community.
Sarawak DAP has voiced opposition to the Election Commission's plan to split the Pending constituency into three separate seats. Violet Yong, the Pending assemblyman and DAP's state organising secretary, stated that the proposed redelineation would move 6,578 voters from Kenyalang Park to the new Tabuan Jaya seat, while 1,845 voters from Taman Supreme would be relocated to Tabuan Jaya as well.
The Simpang Tiga area would be designated under Padungan. Yong emphasized that the move would fragment the community, as residents share the same concerns and use the same infrastructure. She has gathered the necessary 100 signatures from Pending voters to formally protest the EC's decision and is seeking additional support.
