Iskandar, who is 54 years old and represents the Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) party, also expressed his gratitude for his win. In an interview at the vote-tallying center in Dewan Suarah Bintulu, he stated, “I will provide excellent service and honor the trust bestowed upon me by all the voters in the Jepak state constituency.”
