简介

尤斯里·彭古特（Yusri Pungut）是沙巴辛杜民选区（N35）州议员，代表民兴党出战。他是一名资深律师，执业于沙巴，早年曾担任推事，后自创律师事务所，并长期为实必打区居民提供免费法律服务[1]。据《星报》报道，他在司法与法律领域拥有逾二十年经验。民兴党主席拿督斯里沙菲益阿达（Shafie Apdal）于2025年11月为其背书时，称他为「沙巴杰出资深律师」[2]。从政前，尤斯里曾出任民兴党实必打区讯息主任[2]。2025年11月29日，他以政坛新人身份出战第17届沙巴州选，在辛杜民选区以5,086票当选，以362票多数击败希盟候选人拿督雅玛尼·哈菲兹（Datuk Yamani Hafez Musa）[3]。他是该届州选中民兴党新晋当选州议员之一，共有十一名新面孔成功进入沙巴州议会[4]。其当选结果随后遭选民提呈选举呈请挑战，惟亚庇高庭于2026年2月24日裁定驳回呈请，确认其辛杜民合法代表地位[5]。民兴党在第17届沙巴州议会中组成主要反对党阵营，尤斯里因此以在野议员身份出席[2]。在州议会中，他曾就实必打地区的土地地契与乡村保留地问题，以及在野选区发展拨款是否获得公平对待等课题提出质询[2]。

代表性议题

尤斯里·彭古特以政坛新人身份当选州议员，从政前曾任推事，后转型为执业资深律师，并在实必打地区长期提供免费法律服务。他是民兴党在2025年沙巴州选中新晋当选的一批新面孔之一，成功击败一名来自希盟的重量级候选人。在沙巴州议会中，他专注于土地权益与资源分配议题，致力为选区内农村社群发声。

政治立场

根据现有报道，尤斯里·彭古特曾在沙巴州议会就两项政策课题公开表态。其一，他就土地与森林保留地管理课题向州政府提出质询，具体涉及将实必打县前沙巴森林工业特许经营地划出，转为乡村保留地事宜，显示他高度关注农村土地地契与社群权益[2][6]。其二，在2025年12月沙巴财政预算案辩论期间，他呼吁政府以同等标准向在野选区拨发发展款项，不应与执政党选区有别，并就公共资源是否分配公平提出质疑[2][7]。从政前，他曾于2022年就宪制课题公开表态，认为委任非穆斯林出任沙巴最高元首有违传统惯例，但同时承认法律上并无明文禁止[8]。目前暂无其他经证实的政策立场记录。
