PKR president Anwar Ibrahim, when announcing this at a hotel in Miri, said Michael Teo, who had held the Miri parliamentary seat for two terms, was not on the candidate list.
He is making way for Sarawak PKR Youth chief Chiew Choon Man.
According to him, the line-up for Sarawak PKR candidates for GE15 also involved 12 new faces from various backgrounds.
Anwar also said Sarawak PKR chairman Roland Engan would go for the Baram parliamentary seat while his deputy, Abun Sui Anyit, will contest in Hulu Rajang.
Anwar, in a post on his Facebook account earlier today, said the support of the people of Sarawak for the party was crucial to give PH the opportunity to do good work at the federal level, further bringing about change in the state.
“Those who will contest under the banner of Pakatan Harapan need to work hard together with the machinery, to ensure that the agenda we are fighting for is shared with the people,” he said.
The Election Commission (EC) has set polling day on Nov 19, nomination day on Nov 5 and early voting on Nov 15.
