Seats, candidates, strategy — Sarawak DAP will decide, says Loke

KLUANG, Nov 15 — DAP's party secretary-general, Anthony Loke, has announced that the Sarawak DAP leadership has been granted full autonomy to decide on the party's strategy, candidates, and the number of seats to contest in the upcoming Sarawak state election. Following Melaka's recent state election, the attention of the party has shifted to preparing for the Sarawak polls.

Loke addressed a press conference at the 2026 Johor DAP Convention, informing the public that all decisions for the Sarawak state election would be made by Sarawak DAP. The central leadership would continue to provide strong support to ensure the smooth running of the party's machinery in Sarawak. When asked about seat projections and the challenges they might face in the state election, Loke stated that the Sarawak DAP leadership would reveal these details at an appropriate time, noting that all elections are tough and no election is easy.

The Election Commission has set December 12 as the polling day, November 28 for nominations, and December 8 for early voting.
