Melaka polls: BN candidate pledges more jobs, affordable housing in Serkam
JASIN: Creating more job opportunities and providing affordable housing for young people will be among Barisan Nasional candidate Datuk Azman Abdullah's priorities if he wins the Serkam seat in the Melaka election.
Barisan Nasional candidate Datuk Azman Abdullah pledges to boost job creation and provide affordable housing for young residents if elected in Serkam during Melaka's upcoming election. He aims to bolster youth development by expanding the Halal Hub industrial area, which would create employment opportunities tied to Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET).
The second phase of this industrial development is currently under construction. Azman also mentions his concern over the lack of affordable housing, which forces many young families to relocate after marriage. He hopes to address this issue by finding suitable land for more affordable housing projects, particularly targeting the B40 income group.
Azman emphasizes his long-standing connection with Serkam, acknowledging that some younger voters may not be familiar with him and plans to adapt his campaign strategy to connect with them. He highlights the tourism potential of Pantai Siring, currently facing road improvement challenges, and expresses hopes for infrastructure development in Pekan Umbai.
