KUCHING: A Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) Supreme Council member believed that the confidence of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) in winning 18 seats in Sarawak and wresting away Balingian, Tellian and Dalat is a wakeup call for PBB.
“We must take it with a pinch of salt (but) work harder and ensure Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS)’s victory in the next state election,” Pandi Suhaili told The Borneo Post.
He stressed that PBB leaders must also take the PKR leaders’ statement as a warning and motivate them to work harder for the people on the ground.
“PKR Mukah leader Abdul Jalil Bujang is always on the ground, he must have done his own homework. Furthermore, in the last election PBB faced quite a fight from a relatively unknown candidate in Balingian,” he observed.
Pandi admitted that perhaps there are internal issues on the ground that could have contributed to PBB’s unconvincing display in some of the state seats’ voting districts during the last parliamentary election.
