BN candidate Malcolm Mussen Lamoh retained the remote Batang Ai state constituency in southern Sarawak by an increased majority of 1,854 votes.


Its candidate, the newcomer Malcolm Mussen Lamoh, 49, a former engineer with the Sarawak Agriculture Department from Parti Rakyat Sarawak, defeated Parti Keadilan Rakyat’s Jawah Gerang, 55.

He garnered 3,907 votes to defeat veteran politician Jawah Gerang, the former five-term Lubok Antu Member of Parliament, who obtained 2,053 votes, in a straight fight.

Unting died on Feb 24 from a stroke.
