‘What you order is what you get’: Zahid says Ab Rauf to return as CM if BN wins Melaka polls

Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh is poised to return as chief minister of Melaka if Barisan Nasional (BN) and its allies secure victory in the upcoming state election, according to Deputy Prime Minister and BN chairman, Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi. The BN leader expressed his confidence in Ab Rauf's leadership abilities and his track record since serving as Umno executive secretary.

"With Datuk Rauf (Ab Rauf), what you 'order' is exactly what Melaka will get," Zahid stated while inaugurating BN's election machinery for the Jasin parliamentary constituency in Dewan Alamada, Melaka. The Election Commission (EC) has designated November 14 as the polling day for the Melaka State Election, with nomination day set for October 31 and early voting scheduled for November 10.
