Pakatan finalises Melaka seat allocation but no deal yet with other parties, says PKR sec-gen

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 18 — The finalisation of seat allocation for the upcoming Melaka state election within Pakatan Harapan (PH) has been achieved, yet no definitive political cooperation agreement has been reached with other parties, according to PKR secretary-general Datuk Fuziah Salleh. Although PH is anticipated to contest more than 20 state seats, with nine seats allocated to PKR, Fuziah clarified that negotiations involving PKR, DAP, and Amanah have been finalized.

The PKR deputy domestic trade and cost of living minister, speaking at a press conference following the conclusion of the Akses Peruncitan 2026 programme, reiterated that PH chairman and PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is set to disclose the coalition’s Melaka candidate list on October 24. The Election Commission has scheduled October 31 for nomination, November 10 for early voting, and November 14 for polling day.

In the 2021 state election, Barisan Nasional (BN) secured 21 out of 28 seats, PH obtained five seats, and Perikatan Nasional (PN) won two.
