Selangor-based Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah) has set its sights on securing 18 parliamentary seats in the upcoming 16th general election (GE16), but anticipates the possibility of losing all but one seat. Deputy President Datuk Seri Dr Mujahid Yusof Rawa emphasized the importance of early candidate identification, bolstering the party's infrastructure, and refining its narrative to achieve this target.
He warned that, without substantial improvements, Amanah risks retaining only the Kota Raja seat held by party President Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu in GE16. Mujahid stressed that Amanah must focus on strengthening grassroots support, expanding the number of branches and members, and streamlining operations at the Polling District Centre level.
He urged the party to adopt the Islam Rahmatan Lil ’Alamin (Islam as a Mercy to All Creation) narrative as its core message, assuring Muslim and Malay voters that it can protect their interests while respecting the rights of other communities. To retain membership, Mujahid highlighted the need for leadership to attentively address the concerns of grassroots members and their welfare.
