Before this, PERMAS and PBDS lost narrowly in 1987 state election. However, Sarawak BN won with a larger majority this time. PERMAS won none of the seats in this election and was dissolved not long after in 1991. ==Results== The Sarawak BN won a total 49 out of 56 seats in the state assembly, including 2 seats won uncontested. The remaining seats were won by PBDS. On the nomination day, Sarawak BN won 2 seats uncontested, namely N.3 Pantai Damai and N.24 Saribas.〔Hazis, FS (2012).
