PETALING JAYA: Major parties in Sarawak’s ruling coalition would oppose any merger of the Progressive Democratic Party and Parti Rakyat Sarawak that would result in a united Dayak front, according to political analysts.

James Chin of the University of Tasmania said Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu and the Sarawak United People’s Party would oppose any such merger, to maintain their dominant positions in the state.“The merger will never happen. The biggest reason is PBB and SUPP don’t want to see a united Dayak front as they do not want the Dayak community to challenge their supreme status in Sarawak,” Chin told FMT.SPONSORED CONTENT Sabah revenue hits RM6.

Although PRS stands as a multiracial party, it places particular emphasis on the development of the Dayak-Iban community. Universiti Malaya analyst Awang Azman Pawi said PRS and PDP would not be interested in a merger, given their difference in focus.
