GPS to field candidates in all 82 seats for Sarawak state election

The Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) has committed to fielding candidates across all 82 state assembly constituencies in the forthcoming Sarawak state election, marking a comprehensive electoral strategy for the regional coalition.

The decision was formally endorsed during a meeting held at the headquarters of Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu, attended by presidents of all GPS component parties. The full-slate candidacy represents the coalition's confidence in its electoral prospects across the state.

GPS, which dominates Sarawak's political landscape, comprises multiple component parties that have traditionally governed the state. The coalition's decision to contest every seat underscores its intent to maintain its legislative dominance in the upcoming polls.

The move comes as Sarawak prepares for its state election, with GPS positioning itself as the primary contender for the majority of the 82 available seats. The coalition's comprehensive candidacy strategy is expected to shape the electoral landscape significantly in the months ahead.
