7 PN candidates to use coalition logo in Melaka polls, says Samsuri
KUALA TERENGGANU: Seven Perikatan Nasional (PN) candidates will contest under the coalition’s logo in the Melaka election on Nov 14.
In Melaka's upcoming election on November 14, seven Perikatan Nasional (PN) candidates will compete under the coalition's logo, according to PN chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar. Samsuri urged Bersatu to provide clarification on their stance regarding the use of the PN logo, directing inquiries to the party itself. The Election Commission has been notified that permission to employ the logo must be signed by the PN chairman.
Samsuri, who is also the Menteri Besar of Terengganu, joined Terengganu's Regent, Tengku Muhammad Ismail Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin, at a biodiversity seminar held at Wisma Darul Iman. The PN chairman revealed that the seven PN candidates from component parties would utilize the coalition's logo in the Melaka polls, and this practice would persist in subsequent elections.
Samsuri emphasized that the principles agreed upon by Barisan Nasional (BN) and PN concerning seat allocations should continue to guide discussions for the Melaka polls and the upcoming general election. The PN candidates' component parties have submitted their nominees, with the finalized slate set to be announced the following day.
