Bernama : Sarawak holds key to PKR govt, says Anwar

Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said Sarawak, which has 30 members of parliament, holds the key to the formation of a Pakatan Rakyat (PR) government in the country.

“When Sarawak changes its course, the Barisan Nasional government will collapse,” he said at a dinner organised by “Friends of PKR” at the Sibu Trade and Exhibition centre here last Saturday.

He said other leaders in the PR coalition like Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang of PAS, Lim Kit Siang and Lim Guan Eng of DAP and Anwar’s wife would also continue to meet and hold discussions with BN MPS to get them to cross over.

At the function, Anwar received membership application forms from Gabriel Adit Demong, one of two independent state assemblymen, and from 11,752 individuals from throughout the state.

Anwar said Sarawakians were now ready for change, adding that Adit had volunteered to lead a membership recruitment drive for PR. — Bernama
