The party was described in 2004 as follows:
"The Sarawak United People's
Party (SUPP) is Sarawak's oldest political party. Founded in 1959, the party has
changed from a left-wing, anti-Malaysia political entity into an establishment
Barisan Nasional component party without losing the support of the Sarawak
Chinese community. SUPP is the second biggest component party in the Barisan
Nasional of Sarawak. SUPP objective is to establish by constitutional means a
fair, just and equal society for all peoples irrespective of their racial origin
or creed. To secure and maintain the establishment of a government based on
Parliamentary Democracy. To promote and ensure the economic and cultural
advancement of all races and particularly to improve the economic conditions of
all workers and those who are economically backward."

The SUPP is a
founding member of the Barisan National, the party alliance officially set up on
1 July 1974. Its local names are "砂拉
越人民联合党" (Chinese) and "Parti Rakyat Bersatu
Sarawak" (Malay).
The flag of SUPP is yellow with the party emblem in the
middle. It can be seen on several photographs, taken on 22 November 2007, shown
on the photo gallery of the SUPP website. The emblem of SUPP is a yellow disk
with a red border charged with three interlaced yellow disks with a black
border. Yellow, red and black are the national colours of
Sarawak.
