Five incumbents of Sarawak state constituencies in Bekenu, Lambir, Piasau, Senadin and Marudi will defend their seats in the 12th Sarawak state election on Dec 18.

Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) chairperson Abang Johari Openg, who confirmed the matter, said the five incumbents have worked hard serving their respective areas.

“Insya Allah, we will retain (the five assemblypersons) so that the team could assist me in the larger team in GPS,” he said when speaking at a ‘Leader With the People’ dinner in Miri last night.

The five assembly personalities are Rosey Yunus (Bekenu); Ripin Lamat (Lambir); Sebastian Ting (Piasau); Lee Kim Shin (Senadin); and Penguang Manggil (Marudi).

Asked by reporters on the fate of two more incumbents in Miri Division, namely Telang Usan and Mulu, Abang Johari hinted he would be making an announcement in his visit to Mulu tomorrow.
