PH learnt lesson on being loud in campaigns, says Saifuddin

PH secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution Ismail has shared insights on the party's approach to the upcoming Melaka state election campaign. He emphasized the coalition's commitment to fostering respect for diverse perspectives during the election. Saifuddin clarified that winning in an election is not about who is the loudest, but about earning the trust of the electorate.

He described the election as a "festival of democracy" where the coalition aims to promote a peaceful campaign, rejecting hate politics and divisive rhetoric. Saifuddin cautioned against any attempts to favor one community's interests over others. This perspective comes as the PH enters its fourth state election campaign of the year, following elections in Sabah, Johor, and Negeri Sembilan.

The party is contesting 24 seats in the Melaka state election, with PKR fielding 10 candidates, DAP and Amanah each contesting seven. Acting PKR chief Adam Adli defended the coalition's approach, rejecting allegations that PH had disrupted other parties' campaign preparations and defending the party's young candidates against personal attacks.

He urged voters, particularly the younger demographic, to carefully evaluate the candidates' offerings, especially those from Gen Z and millennials.
