KUCHING: Political secretary to the chief minister, Michael Tiang thanked Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari for honouring his promise to Sarawak United People’s Party (SUPP) by promoting Datuk Lee Khim Shim as full minister and appointing Datuk Sebastian Ting as assistant minister.
Tiang, who is also Pahlawan SUPP secretary, also thanked Abang Johari for appointing SUPP members to helm Kuching South City Council (MBKS) and Sibu Municipal Council (SMC). This, he said, showed that the CM was a man of his word.
“GPS component parties have worked together and are now busy in their own traditional areas,” said Tiang, adding that SUPP, too, is committed to serving the people on the ground.
