Referendum on ‘new’ coalition


THE Sarawak polls can be seen as a referendum on Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) rule of the Borneo state.

It is the first polls for the rebranded Sarawak Barisan Nasional that has ruled the state for decades. After Barisan lost in the 14th General Election in 2018, four Sarawak parties – Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB), Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP), Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS) and Progressive Democratic Party (PDP) – quit the coalition and formed GPS.
