Barisan Nasional candidates for the 10th Sarawak state election will be announced Sunday, said Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud.
Taib, who is also the state Barisan chairman, said the announcement would be made at 3pm at the Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu Sarawak (PBB), here.
"I have a meeting tomorrow morning. The announcement (of the candidates) is at 3pm," he said briefly to reporters after opening a programme at the Sukma Ria grounds, Petra Jaya, here Saturday.
Also present at the event were Taib's wife Puan Sri Ragad Waleed Al-Kurdi, and State Housing and Urban Development Minister Datuk Abang Johari Tun Openg.
On Friday, Taib had a meeting with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in Putrajaya, where he was believed to have handed over the list of Barisan candidates for the state election.
