KUCHING: There will be an onslaught of deceptions, accusations and instigations against Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) candidates in the coming parliamentary poll.
“The people should simply ignore these as they were spread to disunite them and to disrupt their racial harmony and ties,” Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas said when officiating the course for polling and counting agents of the Betong parliamentary seat here today (Oct 31).
“These too were also aimed at eroding their support of the GPS and to influence them to vote for the opposition,” he added.
Uggah said when the people decided to support the opposition, there would be an unnecessary interruption to the smooth implementation of the government’s development projects and programmes for them.
On Betong seat, Uggah again urged its voters to strongly support whosoever would be the GPS candidate.
“Let us again continue to make Betong a GPS fortress. Let us all work hard, work smart and think smart in making our choice.
“Let us show our appreciation and gratitude to the GPS government for appointing our Layar assemblyman Datuk Gerald Rentap and our Saribas assemblyman Mohd Razi Sitam as deputy ministers after last year state poll,” Uggah added
“The creation of the Betong Division Development Agency(BDDA) and its development budget of RM1.5 billion is another reason why we should rally solidly behind GPS,” he said.
Uggah said he was confident the GPS candidate would do well in the coming poll as the voters had shown themselves to be very supportive of the GPS government.
