PETALING JAYA: Sarawak premier Abang Johari Openg says Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) will leave it to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to decide on who the next prime minister should be.

“Considering the political turmoil in Peninsular Malaysia, GPS is of the stand that the people’s mandate should be respected,” he said in a statement.
