Adam Adli: PH, Bersatu may clash in Melaka polls
KUALA LUMPUR: Pakatan Harapan has not ruled out clashes with Bersatu in the Melaka election, despite an understanding between the two sides.
Melaka PKR acting state chairman Adam Adli Abd Halim hinted at potential clashes between Pakatan Harapan and Bersatu in the upcoming Melaka polls. Despite an existing understanding between the two parties, Adli expressed confidence that clashes might arise in seats beyond the seven PH has chosen not to contest. The decision to contest only 21 of the 28 state legislative assembly seats was not made deliberately to create room for Bersatu, as Adli clarified.
The coalition's capacity aligns with this decision, and they do not wish to send a message that they vacated those seven seats for Bersatu. If there are overlapping seats between PH and Bersatu, there is no problem, according to Adli. When asked about the possibility of seat clashes, a Bersatu source also indicated the same, without elaborating further.
