PAS eyeing 4 seats in next Sarawak polls
Sarawak PAS delegate Rashidi Halun says winning its first state seat after 30 years of building its presence 'will be a reward'.
Sarawak PAS is targeting four seats in the upcoming state election, marking their first attempt since the party's establishment 30 years ago. Delegated Rashidi Halun revealed that each constituency has its unique objectives and plans. With a total of 82 seats, Sarawak will see 17 additional positions added. The party's persistence over the past three decades has built their presence, and winning the first seat would be a significant achievement, according to Rashidi.
Although PAS participated in Sarawak's elections in 2011, 2016, and 2021 without success, their chief Arifiriazul Paijo expressed hope for a breakthrough. The state assembly term concludes in February, with elections required to be held within 60 days of dissolution or by April at the latest.
