In Alor Gajah, former Durian Tunggal assemblyman Datuk Zahari Khalil has declined to contest in the Melaka election but remains focused on serving his community. Despite not being chosen to run, Zahari is actively campaigning alongside his friend and Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate Datuk Dr Mustafa Musa, also known as Cikgu Mus.

He met with residents in Kampung Belimbing Dalam, Durian Tunggal, where Mustafa was receiving appointment letters in Kuala Lumpur.

Mustafa praised Zahari's support, describing him as a long-time friend and fellow party member. He said their cooperation would sustain development efforts in Durian Tunggal.
