Agreement reached in principle with BN on Melaka polls, says Hadi
The PAS president says, however, that seat allocations and candidate selection are still being negotiated.
PAS leader Abdul Hadi Awang announced that the party and Barisan Nasional have reached an agreement on cooperating for the upcoming Melaka state election. However, Hadi clarified that the specifics of seat allocation and candidate selection are still under discussion, as reported by Sinar Harian. Hadi stated that the approach to political cooperation must consider the unique needs of each state, including Melaka.
The party is expected to present its candidates to PAS's Syura Council for approval before submitting them for the election. Meanwhile, Perikatan Nasional deputy chairman Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man revealed that the coalition intends to contest more than four of the 28 seats in Melaka. The Election Commission has designated November 14 as the polling day for the 16th Melaka state elections, following the dissolution of the state assembly on September 23. Nomination forms are due by October 31, and early voting will commence on November 10.
