Don’t wait too long to call for Melaka polls, Tok Mat tells Rauf
The Umno No 2 also advises the chief minister to avoid falling out with other parties if negotiations fail to result in an electoral pact.
Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan has urged Melaka chief minister Ab Rauf Yusoh to dissolve the state assembly at an earlier date to pave the way for the upcoming state election. The Umno leader conveyed that his party's youth, women, and young women's wings are already prepared to support Barisan Nasional's election campaign in Melaka.
He emphasized to Rauf, "Don't wait too long ... Rauf, we are ready. We will come to help Melaka." The BN deputy chairman also cautioned Rauf to avoid conflicts with other parties if negotiations fail to produce an electoral agreement for the Melaka election. Rauf, in turn, affirmed that his party is open to talks with any potential strategic partners, with a final decision to be made after the dissolution of the state assembly.
The current Melaka government's mandate expires on December 31, and a state election must be held within 60 days.
