SANDAKAN: Sabah PKR Chief Datuk Mustapha Sakmud said the party is targeting only two seats in Sandakan for the coming state election — Gum-Gum and Karamunting.

He said the two constituencies were chosen to reflect the area’s diversity, with one representing the Bumiputera Muslim community and the other the Chinese community.

Speaking after attending the Jelajah Harapan Urang Sabah event in Gum-Gum, he said PKR’s focus is on fielding candidates who understand the reform and transformation agendas under the Madani government.

He added that the final list of candidates will be confirmed on nomination day, though the party is maintaining a proactive stance in its preparations.

Mustapha expressed confidence that PKR can secure both seats if party members stay united and focused as the election nears.
