Dr Akmal, the chief of UMNO Youth, has stated he would not contest the Melaka State Election if Barisan Nasional (BN) and Pakatan Harapan (PH) form a partnership. Dr Akmal prioritizes defending his principles over his political position. He reiterated this sentiment during the KS (Keluar Sekejap) podcast. Dr Akmal believes that if BN-PH were to form a pact in Melaka, he would not participate in the contest.
He expressed his willingness to win Melaka, similar to the victories in Johor and Negeri Sembilan. This was said in response to the potential talks between PH and BN for cooperation ahead of the Melaka PRN. Earlier, PH Secretary-General, Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail hinted that the possibility of discussions is likely as the Melaka PRN approaches.
Dr Akmal also raised questions about PH's stance, which was once criticized for considering UMNO as faceless and stabbing friends, but now they are looking to form a collaboration with UMNO.
