PAS belum putus tanding PRN Sarawak, kata Tuan Ibrahim

PAS, the traditional party that has always contested at least one seat in Sarawak's PRN elections, is still considering whether to field a candidate in the upcoming vote, according to Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man, the party's deputy president. The party will make a decision on this matter in the near future, he told FMT. Meanwhile, Annuar Musa, the national communications director of PN, also mentioned that the alliance would determine its stance on participating in PRN Sarawak shortly.

PN might choose not to contest, following the decision made by the Barisan Nasional (BN). PAS is part of the PN coalition, which also includes Wawasan, Pejuang, MIPP, and Gerakan. In October, PAS was reportedly considering contesting in Samariang, Sebuyau, and Beting Maro, all of which have a majority of Islamic Bumiputera voters.

PAS contested in Beting Maro during the 2021 Sarawak PRN elections but came in third place behind the Sarawak People's Party (GPS). The Election Commission (SPR) has set October 12 as the date for the Sarawak PRN vote, with the first polling day scheduled for October 8.
