Politicians from Sarawak Barisan Nasional component parties are publicly lamenting aloud that no Sarawakian was appointed as full minister in the latest Federal Cabinet reshuffle.

Leaders from the Parti Pesaka Bumiputra Bersatu (PBB) have been particularly vocal the past few days, expressing aloud their disappointment to the local press daily.
