SIBU, Oct 31 (Bernama) -- Sarawak's newest opposition party, Sarawak
Workers Party (SWP), is still keeping its options open on its candidates
for five seats it plans to contest.
Its president, Larry Sng Wei Shien, told reporters here today that it would want to get the best possible candidates.
SWP, which claims to be a Barisan Nasional (BN)-friendly party, is taking the fight to only Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS), a Dayak-based state BN component party, in the coming election.
It plans to field its candidates in PRS seats like Sri Aman, Lubok Antu, Selangau, Kanowit and Hulu Rajang.
Sng has, so far, confirmed that Meluan state assemblyman and former senior vice-president of the Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party (SPDP) Wong anak Judat would take on three-term BN/PRS incumbent Datuk Joseph Salang anak Gandum for the Julau seat.
Salang is also information communication and culture deputy minister.
