Politics of development pays dividend


WITH the Barisan Nasional winning handsomely in the resource rich state of Sarawak in the 13th general election (GE), and a record number of seven ministers and four deputy ministers elected into the federal Cabinet, Sarawak’s appeal has notched up significantly in a matter of weeks.

Sarawak BN delivered 25 of the 31 parliamentary seats in the GE. This means that Sarawak Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud has delivered and now market watchers are expecting Sarawak to be robustly rewarded. Collectively, Sabah and Sarawak delivered 47 seats out of the 133 seats that gave BN its simple majority.
