Political career

Justin Wong was first elected as the State Assemblyman (ADUN) for Sri Tanjong (N69) in the 2020 Sabah State Election, representing the Democratic Action Party (DAP) under the WARISAN ticket.[1]

As the Sri Tanjong assemblyman, Wong actively raised issues of development and allocation for the Tawau area in the State Legislative Assembly. He also commented and urged on several state issues including the mining license negotiations and allegations of misconduct raised in 2025.[2][3]

On 26 March 2022, Wong and Elopura assemblyman Calvin Chong Ket Kiun announced their departure from DAP (and Pakatan Harapan) and submitted their membership forms to WARISAN Party President Shafie Apdal, marking their move to the new party.[4][5][6]

Wong first contested as a full member of WARISAN in the 2025 Sabah state election, securing victory in his constituency with a majority of 3,113 votes over his former party, DAP.[7]

Wong is currently the Deputy Information Chief of WARISAN.[8][9][10]
