PH to fare poorly in Sarawak polls, says analyst

KUALA LUMPUR: Voters in Sarawak are set to reject Pakatan Harapan in the state polls today, increasing pressure on its chairman Anwar Ibrahim to step aside and forcing a rethink in strategy ahead of a general election that may be called next year.

The Sarawak elections are expected to present another major defeat for PH because the local parties that have controlled the state since independence are aligned with the federal government led by Umno.

The opposition was thrashed last month in another state elections in Melaka, thanks to an Umno campaign led by disgraced former prime minister Najib Razak who focused on reviving a pandemic-battered economy.

Najib criticised the opposition for harping on his corruption trials linked to troubled state fund 1MDB, although an appeals court upheld a guilty verdict soon after the polls.
