Bersama membership rises after Negri polls
PUCHONG: Pakatan Harapan’s defeat in the recent Negri Sembilan election has prompted some members of its component parties to join Bersama, says Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli.
In Puchong, Pakatan Harapan's loss in the recent Negri Sembilan election has led some of its component parties' members to join Bersama, according to Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli, co-leader of the latter. Rafizi stated that this shift has contributed to a significant increase in Bersama's membership. As of now, the party boasts around 29,200 members, with about 25% comprising former PKR members.
Additionally, 15% are former political party members, including those from Umno, Pas, and Bersatu. The remaining 60% are individuals who have never been part of any political party before, while former DAP members make up less than 1%. Speaking at Bersama headquarters, Rafizi, alongside co-founder Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad and former Subang MP Wong Chen, noted that support for Bersama is not limited to former PKR members but also includes those without prior party affiliations.
Rafizi expressed confidence that Bersama's membership will exceed 30,000 by the end of the week, emphasizing the need to sustain this momentum through ongoing membership drives.
