Adly is PH’s Melaka CM candidate, says Amirudin

Melaka's Pakatan Harapan leader Adly Zahari is set to run as the state's chief minister candidate if the coalition manages to form the government after the upcoming Nov 14 election, according to PH election director Amirudin Shari. A former chief minister from 2018 to 2020, Adly is the leading contender among a few candidates, with consensus to name him, provided his party secures a majority or mandate.

Amirudin expressed confidence in PH's prospects in the upcoming polls, following completion of the nomination process. Adly will face competition from Perikatan Nasional, Bersama, and an independent candidate for the Bukit Katil assemblyman seat. In the 2021 state election, he won the seat with a narrow 1,057-vote margin against three other BN, PN, and independent candidates, serving as chief minister during that term.
