峇都林当区原任议员施志豪（See Chee How）10月27日到砂人联党总部递交入党申请表格。随着申请正式提交，他的政治动向有了新进展，但这并不是人联党已宣布委派他守土的消息。 人联党表示，申请表格已在古晋总部移交，党领导人在场见证。DayakDaily及《星洲日报》均报道了这项递表行动；星洲也指出，他接下来是否获党委派继续竞选峇都林当，仍受到关注。 施志豪曾连续三届赢得该议席：2011年和2016年以公正党旗帜参选，2021年则代表砂团结党上阵。他在2022年8月退出砂团结党，之后以无党籍身份服务，直至本届州议会解散。 对峇都林当选民而言，这次递表与过去单纯传闻不同，已有实际申请行动；不过，申请加入砂盟成员党人联党，与获委为州选候选人，是两个不同程序。判断下届选战阵容，仍须看政党接下来正式公布的候选人安排，不宜把递交党员申请直接写成已获上阵资格。

Batu Lintang incumbent See Chee How has submitted an application to join SUPP, moving beyond the speculation that followed his years as an independent representative. SUPP said the form was handed over at its headquarters in Kuching on Oct 27, in the presence of party leaders. The confirmed development is the submission of a membership application; it is not an announcement that See has been selected to contest Batu Lintang at the coming state election. See first won the constituency in 2011 under PKR and retained it in 2016. He secured a third term on a PSB ticket in 2021, then left PSB in August 2022 and served as an independent before the Assembly was dissolved. That history gives the application particular significance for Batu Lintang voters: a representative who last won under one party and later sat independently is now seeking to enter SUPP, a component of the ruling Gabungan Parti Sarawak coalition. It does not, on its own, settle the constituency’s candidate lineup. DayakDaily reported the party’s account of the handover, while Sin Chew Daily also reported the submission and noted the question of whether See would be fielded to defend the seat. Party membership and an election nomination remain separate matters; a formal candidate announcement is the next development for voters to follow.

砂拉越拟为学校及社区发展环保教育教材，把现有教育工作整合起来，让学生不只认识环境问题，也能把所学用于日常行动。 砂天然资源与环境局在10月27日于古晋帝宫酒店举行的环保教育大会开幕活动上，将这套教材列为大会的重要成果方向之一。DayakDaily报道，教材将强调内容容易取得、切合需要，并为后续环保教育发展提供指引。 讨论也特别提到乡区及偏远地区儿童，教育内容拟结合国际视野与本地环境知识。对学校和社区组织来说，重点在于如何把环保概念化为实际参与，而不是把这次倡议理解为已经新增一门必修科。 该局表示，1999年推出的PALS环保社团，参与学校已从最初74所增至1011所；目标是在2027年底前再登记455所学校。后一个数字是未来扩展目标，并非现有参与学校数。 目前可确认的是既有社团网络及教材发展方向；报道没有公布教材正式进入学校的时间表。学校后续可留意教材完成和推广安排，不能把这次大会上的规划当作已经全面实施的新课程。

Sarawak is developing the idea of a shared environmental education module for schools and communities, with an emphasis on putting lessons into practice rather than adding classroom knowledge alone. At the Environmental Education Conference in Kuching on Oct 27, the proposed module was described as a way to bring existing education efforts together and make learning materials more accessible and relevant. DayakDaily reported that the Natural Resources and Environment Board Sarawak, or NREB, identified it as one of the conference’s key outcomes. The proposal also calls for local environmental knowledge to sit alongside international perspectives. Rural and remote communities were specifically included in the discussion, so the intended audience is wider than schools in the main towns. NREB said its Kelab Pencinta Alam Sekitar, known as PALS Club, had grown from 74 schools when introduced in 1999 to 1,011 schools. It is targeting another 455 schools for registration by the end of 2027. That is an expansion target, not a count of schools already enrolled. The conference opening took place at Imperial Hotel Kuching. A common module remains a development proposal: the report did not set a school rollout date or describe a new compulsory subject. For schools and community groups, the concrete distinction is between the existing PALS network and the learning materials still being developed.

砂拉越交通部已致函航空公司及长途巴士业者，要求探讨在州选投票日前后增加班次，方便选民返回登记选区投票。增班安排仍须看业者落实，并非所有路线已经加开服务。 根据马新社10月28日报道，交通部在前一天的声明中，提出两种不同的运力安排：航空服务希望在投票前一周及后一周增加航班；砂州长途巴士则鼓励在投票前三天至后三天暂时加密班次。 这项安排也考虑到在西马、新加坡及沙巴工作的砂拉越人。对需要先搭飞机、再转巴士回乡的选民而言，两段行程的增班窗口并不相同，订票时仍须逐段确认实际出发及衔接时间。 交通部呼吁提早规划，并通过业者官方渠道查询班表、票价及订位资料。这次声明没有列出各条路线的新增班次或统一票价，不能据此把拟议增班视为已有座位保证；返乡和回程都应以业者公布、可供预订的服务为准。

Sarawak has asked airlines and express bus operators to prepare additional services around the coming state election, but travellers still need to check operators’ confirmed schedules before booking. The Ministry of Transport Sarawak said in an Oct 27 statement that it had written to operators to explore extra capacity for people returning to their registered constituencies. Bernama reported the statement on Wednesday morning. For flights, the requested increase covers the week before polling day and the week after it, allowing for both the journey home and the return trip. For express buses within Sarawak, the ministry encouraged more departures from three days before polling until three days afterwards. The two windows are different: the broader air-travel request is intended to help Sarawakians working in Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore and Sabah, while the bus request concerns onward and inter-town travel within Sarawak. These are requests to operators, not an announced package of guaranteed extra seats or fixed fares. The ministry urged travellers to plan early and use operators’ official channels for schedules, prices and reservations. Anyone arranging a journey involving both a flight and a bus should check each leg against the services actually offered, rather than treating the proposed increase as a confirmed timetable.
