KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 15 — Perikatan Nasional (PN) will determine its stance on contesting the upcoming Sarawak state election soon, according to its Information Chief Tan Sri Annuar Musa.
In a Facebook post today, Annuar stated that Barisan Nasional (BN) will not participate in the Sarawak polls, adding that not contesting might also be an option for PN.
This follows an announcement by BN chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi that the coalition will not contest any seats in the 13th Sarawak state election.
“BN has no intention of contesting any state seats in Sarawak, as this is the understanding between Umno and PBB in the state,” Zahid said.
Zahid, who is also Umno president and Deputy Prime Minister, explained that the decision aligns with the existing understanding between Umno and Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB).
The Election Commission has set December 12 as polling day for the Sarawak election, with nominations scheduled for November 28.
