Don’t wait for elections to go to the ground, PH ministers told

Amanah Youth chief says some ministers have been spending a lot more time with civil servants instead of party leaders and members at the grassroots level.

Don’t wait for elections to go to the ground, PH ministers told

Pakatan Harapan ministers must engage the grassroots and prioritize face-to-face interactions with leaders and members at the grassroots level, according to Amanah Youth chief Hasbie Muda. Hasbie criticized PH ministers for spending more time with civil servants rather than those at the grassroots level. He believes that stronger ties between top leaders and grassroots members could help counteract the racial and religious narratives propagated by PH's opponents.

Hasbie urged all PH ministers to visit the ground to listen to complaints and translate government policies into tangible impact for ordinary Malaysians. Penang PKR Youth chief Fadzli Roslan echoed Hasbie's sentiments, stating that PH leaders should not wait for elections to go to the ground and meet ordinary people. He emphasized that the people desire elected representatives who are present even outside election periods, attending to their concerns and explaining steps taken to address those issues.

PH's most significant defeat was in Negeri Sembilan, where BN-PN secured a two-thirds majority in the state assembly, following heavy losses in Sabah and Johor.
