SANDAKAN: Parti Impian Sabah (PIS) will field candidates in all 73 state seats in the coming 17th State Election (PRN17).
Its President Michel Alok said 60 divisions are already prepared, with the remaining divisions also set to introduce their candidates.
He said that stand is to move solo and not make any coalition with others.
“However, after the PRN, if a coalition is needed, it will be considered carefully, as any coalition should benefit the people of Sabah who want change, while also allowing the State to make its own decisions for development without outside involvement,” he said at a Hari Raya Aidilfitri gathering organised by PIS Islamic Affairs at Jmiela Event Hall, here, on Sunday.
Also present were the party leadership at the state and divisional levels.
Michel also said that 30 per cent of the candidates would be women.
“So far, four candidates have been identified, alongside young and veteran candidates who are seen to have strong leadership potential,” he said.
Regarding the state-level Hari Raya celebration, he said the event served as a platform for party members to meet and celebrate the festival together, rather than only at the divisional level.
