SUPP president George Chan is not revealing yet what transpired at his recent meeting with Prime Minister Najib Razak over the party's position in the Sarawak BN.      

He said he would only disclose details of the meeting with the BN chairman after discussing the matter with key SUPP leaders, which he added would be soon.      

NONE "Can't tell you (what transpired at the meeting) now but, don't worry, you will know soon," he said when met after opening the 45th annual general meeting of the Associated Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry of Sarawak in Miri.      

Chan ( right ), who is also a Sarawak deputy chief minister, said his meeting with Najib was "very good and fruitful".      

SUPP, the oldest party in Sarawak, came under the limelight in recent weeks following a rumour that it was contemplating leaving the Sarawak BN but would remain within the coalition at the federal level.      

The rumour was sparked by some grassroots members who had said that there  was no point in the SUPP remaining with the Sarawak BN if the issues facing the Chinese community in the state remained unresolved.      

SUPP fared badly in the last state elections, in 2006, when it lost eight of the 19 seats it contested.      

The party received another blow this year when it lost in the parliamentary by-election for Sibu, once regarded  as its stronghold.
