Melaka polls: Rival's praise motivates Ab Rauf to serve Tanjung Bidara constituents

New Straits Times reports that Melaka Chief Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ab Rauf Yusoh, who is also the BN chairman for the Tanjung Bidara constituency, is using praise from his Pakatan Harapan rival, Mohd Yunazri Mustamiri, as motivation to serve the people better. Rauf stated that while he appreciated Yunazri's remarks, he does not allow them to make him complacent and instead feels even more responsible towards the people of Tanjung Bidara.

The BN candidate emphasized that the remarks show his rival's recognition of the importance of continuously improving the quality of life in the constituency, as he has been serving the people for a long time. The Tanjung Bidara seat will see a straight fight between Rauf and Yunazri in the upcoming Melaka election, with Rauf winning the 2021 state election with 3,559 votes.
