Sarawak Delimitation 2015 - More seats, more problems?

Earlier this month, the Election Commission released the delimitation exercise proposal for Sarawak, which saw an increase of 11 state assembly seats, bringing the total to 82 seats for the state. However, political parties and local analysts have questioned the redrawing of the lines for the constituencies, as well as the process of gazetting the proposal. We speak to activist PY Wong from Tindak Malaysia, analyst Ahi Sarok from University Malaysia Sarawak, and PKR state assemblyman Baru Bian, for their feedback on the proposal.

Melanie Abraham and Haniff Baharudin contributed to this report.
