KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 19 — Parti Bangsa Malaysia's (PBM) president Datuk Larry Sng claimed victory for the Julau parliamentary seat in the 15th general election.

Sng took to Facebook to declare his triumph, saying that he will be serving for another term.

"First and foremost this has been an intensive election for me against the might of GPS (Gabungan Parti Sarawak) and all their machinery.

"Good news is we made it! I want to thank my family, supporters, SPR and all the hard working civil servants who have ensured a safe and fair election for the candidates and our supporters.

"I will serve another five years with dedication and full commitment to the people of Julau. Today history is made and I am proud to be of service," he said.

Unofficial results show that Sng has secured 5,407 votes against GPS' 4,692 votes, as of 9.45pm.

If the result is called, Sng who defected from PKR will be the first member from PBM to win a federal parliamentary seat.
