Members of two BN-friendly parties – United Peoples Party (UPP) and Parti Tenaga Rakyat Sarawak (Teras) – are also expected to be there too.

Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Adenan Satem and Najib are expected to address the crowd.

Similar events had been held in Pahang and Sabah.

Upon arriving here on June 3, Najib will first attend a state Gawai Dayak gathering organised by the Dayak Bidayuh National Association (DBNA) at their headquarters here.
