Bersatu confirms use of own logo in Melaka state election

Melaka, Oct 30 — Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) has officially decided to use its own logo in the 16th Melaka State Election scheduled for November 14, according to the party's secretary-general Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali. Azmin, who also serves as the party's election director, confirmed the decision by sending an official letter to the Election Commission (EC) last week.

He informed reporters that the Bersatu logo will be utilized in the election, as approved by Bersatu president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin. Azmin made the announcement after presiding over the Bersatu Candidate Announcement Ceremony for the Melaka State Election at the party's headquarters in Baitul Tariq, Klebang. Among those present were Bersatu vice-president Datuk Dr Mohd Radzi Md Jidin.

Azmin highlighted that all eight seats contested by Bersatu in the Melaka State Election are considered viable for the party's victory. While the party anticipates a confrontation with the Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidates in four contested seats—Kelebang (PKR), Gadek, Ayer Keroh, and Pangkalan Batu (DAP)—Azmin emphasized that such clashes form a part of healthy competition in a democratic system.

He ruled out engaging in "gutter politics" or slander, stating that Bersatu will present its party policies and focus on economic growth, job creation, and the welfare of the people. Earlier at the event, Mohd Radzi revealed that Bersatu will contest in eight State Assembly seats: Lendu, Gadek, Sungai Udang, Pantai Kundor, Kelebang, Pengkalan Batu, Ayer Keroh, and Bemban.
