Sarawak Polls: GPS wrests Krian seat as Friday wins by 932-vote majority


SARATOK: Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) has won the closely-watched contest in Krian, wresting the seat it last won on a Barisan Nasional ticket in 2011.

Friday Belik won the seat with a 932-vote majority in the four-cornered fight that was also contested by Datuk Ali Biju, the Sarawak Bersatu vice-chairman, who three days after filing his nomination as an Independent candidate, said he was withdrawing from the contest to back Friday.
