00:16identified Ibrahim Baki as a strong contender due to his long service with the party.

00:21Karim is the state's tourism, creative industry, and performing arts minister, while Ibrahim,

00:26a Sato Assemblyman and former Petronas board member, has over 30 years of corporate and

00:31legal experience.

00:33Awang Azman Sid Julaihi Narawi, the state's utility and telecommunication minister, is

00:38also well-positioned to retain his vice-president seat.

00:47Karim, Julaihi, Dr. Anwar Rapa'i, and Abdul Rahman Junaidi will defend their seats while

00:58Awang Azman expects Anwar to secure the third slot and the last position to be contested

01:03between Abdul Rahman and Lain Talif, though Ibrahim remains a strong candidate.
