BARIO: A total of 107 registered voters for the Ba Kelalan constituency have returned to the Kelabit highland in Bario since the last few days.

Bario is one of the polling stations for Ba Kelalan constituency.

The director of N.70 Ba kelalan operation room Henry Paul said a total of 340 registered voters have yet to come back.

“As of today, the data in our operation room showed that some 107 registered voters have come back since the last few days,” he told The Borneo Post when met at the operation room for the Bario district polling station yesterday.

Henry added that the operation room is running smoothly.

“We are coordinating the election machinery, especially by checking the voters’ data here, as well as ensuring that the election machinery will run smoothly until polling day, this Saturday,” he remarked.

In addition, extra flight arrangements have been made since yesterday to fly back the registered voters from Miri.

Rurum Kelabit Association of Sarawak has chartered 13 return flights from Miri to Bario and via-versa.

The chartered flights were in aid to transport voters of the constituency, including those working in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and elsewhere in Sarawak back to exercise their rights.
