SIBU: Senator Robert Lau, who is also chairman of Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP) Bawang Assan Branch, has urged longhouse people in the constituency to support Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) in the coming state election.
He visited longhouses at Sungai Malangan and Sungai Along today.

“Projects such as roads, bridges, treated water and electricity supplies are implemented at a fast pace,” he said.
He was accompanied by a political secretary to chief minister, Daniel Bujal, and councillors from Sibu Rural District Council (SRDC).
