KUALA LUMPUR – Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) has assured that it will defend the current unity government which it is part of, as the present administration is important for the country’s political stability.
Unity government secretariat head Datuk Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said the matter is an important assertion and essence of the speech by Sarawak Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg.
In a Facebook post, Asyraf said Abang Johari had highlighted the matter during the second unity government secretariat meeting at Umno’s headquarters in Menara Dato’ Onn, here, last night.
GPS, he said, also saw that stability would bring great economic benefits to the people.
He said Abang Johari, who is also GPS chairman, had also stressed the importance of strengthening Sarawak.
“If Sarawak is strong, the federation itself will be strong.
“GPS also congratulates Umno, which is getting stronger after the party election\, which is also an important factor in the government’s stability,” he said in a post on Facebook today.
He also uploaded a picture with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Abang Johari, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Zambry Abdul Kadir.
The second unity government secretariat meeting was chaired by Anwar.
Also present were the president and secretariat members representing the five coalitions under the unity government, namely Pakatan Harapan, Barisan Nasional, GPS, Gagasan Rakyat Sabah and Warisan.
These coalitions consist of 20 political parties.
Seat negotiations among parties within the unity government are proceeding well ahead of the state elections expected later this year, said Anwar.
The Tambun MP, however, said that the matter is still being discussed within the joint committee consisting of leaders from all government parties. – The Vibes, March 20, 2023
