Sabah, Sarawak's quest for more Parliament seats could see only one beneficiary, says Sim


SIBU: Sabah and Sarawak's quest for an increase in Parliamentary seats might only result in Sabah getting more seats, says Datuk Seri Dr Sim Kui Hian (pic).

"Based on population figures, the 35% of seats allocated for Sabah and Sarawak may end with most of the increase happening only in the Parliamentary seats for Sabah," said the Deputy Premier in a Facebook post on Sunday (Sept 18).
