Kuching, May 13 – The 13th general election (GE13) proved the solid support of the Dayak community in Sarawak for Barisan Nasional, said Sarawak Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Alfred Jabu.
He said the just-concluded polls also reflected the general consensus of the community that the coalition was able to bring peace and political stability,which had been the essence that enabled them to progress and improve their living standard.
“We condemn people who do not respect democracy and went down to the street to protest. No place in this world can progress if it is in chaos,” he said at a pre-Gawai dinner organised by the Kuching District Iban Community Leaders Social and Welfare Committee, here, last night.
Jabu said the resounding victory of BN in Sarawak would offer more opportunities for members of the community, especially those who still resided in the rural parts of the state to enjoy more development in their areas.
During the dinner, he also announced a grant of RM20,000 for the committee.
