Parochial ways of the hornbill

FEB 26 ?People in Sarawak are getting excited. For the past few months, Anwar has been visiting Sarawak on an almost weekly basis. He has taken over as Sarawak PKR liaison person, i.e. Brother No. 1. He had a nice tea with Sarawak DAP leaders and kind words were exchanged. Previously Sarawak PKR and Sarawak DAP were unable to talk because the previous PKR head, a Sarawak state assemblyman, had bad blood with the Sarawak DAP leaders.

On the ground, things are looking adsl for PKR. Its series of dinners/speeches have attracted thousands of Dayaks and the Chinese crowd. Sarawak PKR also picked up one addition assemblyman when Gabriel Adit, one of the two independents in the state, joined the party last November. Hence on the surface, PKR is the most multi-racial opposition in Sarawak with Dominic Ng (Chinese) and Adit streamyx network as its assemblymen.
