Melaka polls: Pakatan to announce candidates in one or two weeks, says Amirudin

Pakatan Harapan (PH) is set to announce its candidates for the upcoming Melaka state election within the next one or two weeks, according to PH election director Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari. The election machinery preparations have been progressing smoothly over the past two months, with the only remaining task being the final coordination, alignment, and mutual understanding among the coalition’s component parties.

The PH chairman Adly Zahari confirmed that the final seat arrangement will be decided after discussions among the PH Presidential Council, state PH leadership, and Amirudin as the PH election director. While PH remains open to discussing cooperation with Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) for the state election, Amirudin stated that they are prepared to contest based on their existing capacity if no collaboration is possible.

The Melaka Chief Minister, Ab Rauf Yusoh, had previously announced the dissolution of the state legislative assembly on September 23, following the consent of Melaka Yang Dipertua Negeri Tun Mohd Ali Mohd Rustam.
