KUCHING, Oct 8 — The Sarawak State Legislative Assembly is expected to be dissolved in November or two weeks after...
The Sarawak State Legislative Assembly is anticipated to be dissolved in November, according to Sarawak Minister of Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts Datuk Seri Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah. The state Budget 2027 is expected to be presented during the upcoming assembly session, which is scheduled to take place from October 12-21.
Abdul Karim emphasized that the Sarawak government intends to prevent the assembly's term from expiring automatically in February 2027, coinciding with the end of the state government's mandate. He stated that it is uncommon for a Chief Minister, or Premier in Sarawak's context, to permit the assembly's dissolution without their explicit approval.
Abdul Karim believes that the assembly's dissolution should occur soon, given that only a few months remain until the term ends.
