Melaka polls: PKR to field experienced, young and women candidates, says Amirudin

The Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) has announced its candidate selection strategy for the 16th Melaka state election, set to take place on November 14. According to PKR vice-president Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari, the party will field a diverse mix of candidates, including experienced individuals, young people, and women from various ethnic groups.

This approach aims to ensure the candidates have the necessary experience and qualities to effectively serve their communities and secure victory in the contested constituencies. Amirudin also mentioned that in some state constituencies where PKR's support is relatively low, they plan to allow candidates to gain experience as part of the party's and Pakatan Harapan's (PH) long-term strategy.

The party has declared it will contest nine seats in the Melaka state election, with the final list of candidates to be announced by PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim on October 24.
