Chan said if needed, he will help to campaign for his party in the coming election.

Meanwhile, Dr Sim, at his own Open House, believed that his party will win back all the 7 seats allocated to them in the coming electin.

Sarawak, he said needs 31 seats in the Parliamentary to get better negotiation to wrest back the power they lost in the past.
