KUALA LUMPUR: Pakatan Harapan (PH) has decided to retain its plan to contest 21 seats in the upcoming Melaka election, with any alterations pending final approval from the coalition's top leadership. Communications director Fahmi Fadzil confirmed the decision, stating that PH will focus on the already announced seats. "We have announced 21 seats.
If there are any changes, we leave it to the leadership to announce," Fadzil told reporters during a Deepavali contribution event in Lembah Pantai parliamentary constituency, IWK Eco Park @ Pantai Dalam. The PH leader emphasized that the party will assess its involvement in the state polls based on its capacity and strategic considerations, taking into account the decisions of other parties.
He noted that several other parties would announce their candidates tomorrow, but PH's assessments are based on its own capabilities. Earlier reports suggested that PH was considering adding three more seats, with PKR securing one additional seat and Amanah two. If approved, PH would contest 24 of the 28 state seats in Melaka.
