Chief Minister Abang Johari and Tan Sri James Masing\u2019s statements truly reflected the spirit of Barisan Nasional Sarawak where mutual respect and support are practiced between the component parties.\u2019 Said Kho.<\/p>\n<p>Kho said that Sarawak-based Parties are now at its strongest point of unity with the common goal in fighting for the interest of Sarawakians. Kho compares this to a short-lived Pakatan Rakyat and now the recently formed Pakatan Harapan, where she described both the Pakatans a mere pursuit of expediency that is not sustainable.<br \/>\n&#8220;In fact all the opposition parties are from Malaya and led by Malayans; and clearly they are formed without mutual understanding and goals to achieve for Sarawak&#8221;, Kho pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Barisan Nasional Sarawak is committed in delivering Sarawak\u2019s autonomy through the devolution of power. So I urge my fellow Sarawakian to support and work together with Barisan Nasional Sarawak to build a stronger Sarawak. Only a coalition built under Sarawak-based parties will and is capable of fighting for Sarawak\u2019s interest.\u2019 Kho emphasized.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/image12.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-21259\" alt=\"image1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/image12-228x300.jpeg\" width=\"228\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/image12-228x300.jpeg 228w, https:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/image12.jpeg 547w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 228px) 100vw, 228px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; line-height: normal;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SUPP Central Women Section Chairman Kho Teck Wan concurred with the Chief Minister Abang Johari Openg\u2019s decision to not field BN direct candidate in the upcoming General Election.
