SHAH ALAM - Bread-and-butter issues including development, rural infrastructure remain the core issues for Sarawakians over national-based issues in Peninsula, says Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) supreme council member Fazzrudin Abdul Rahman.
In Sinar Daily’s Last Lap GE15 talkshow, he pointed that the sentiment in Sarawak now is that the voters are leaning towards the government, a change from the last general election (GE14).
The scenario was also evident in the last Sarawak State election (PRN12) where the Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) state coalition won with a landslide victory.
He said voters in Sarawak understand the importance of having a stable government in Sarawak and a proper representation in parliament.
Due to that, he said the narrative propagated by opposition parties inlcuding Pakatan Harapan (PH) that voting them in allows "check and balance” in government was tone deaf.
"The voters now are more critical towards political parties and are able to evaluate for themselves based on results – whether the parties deliver their promises or otherwise," he added.
Furthermore, he said the grassroots understand the policies and directions of the state government to deliver meaningful change for Sarawak in the long-term through economic and infrastructure development.
"In GPS, they see a government that is able to plan for the long haul and build the future of Sarawak to ensure stability, progress and prosperity,” Fazzrudin commented on the voters’ outlook on political parties.
