PAS deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said a decision may be expected soon.PETALING JAYA: PAS is still considering whether it should contest the Sarawak state election next month, says the party's deputy president, Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man.

“Traditionally, we would contest at least one seat,” he told FMT, adding that a decision would be made soon.

Earlier tonight, Perikatan Nasional information chief Annuar Musa said opting out of the state polls “may be an option” after Barisan Nasional - its ally in the last two state polls - said it would not contest the Sarawak election.

In October, PAS said it was considering contesting four seats, including Samariang, Sebuyau and Beting Maro, which have a majority Muslim-Bumiputera electorate, following its success in winning a seat in the Sabah state assembly.
