Melaka polls: Pakatan challenges MCA to debates in all four seats they contest

The chairman of the Malaysian opposition party, Pakatan Harapan (PH), Adly Zahari, has cautioned the coalition to prioritize winning state seats during their 14-day campaign, rather than debating who should become chief minister if they win the election. Responding to Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari's suggestion that Adly return to lead the state administration if PH secures victory, Adly emphasized that their main objective is to secure enough seats to form a government.

He stated this at a press conference in Melaka, noting that he believes the process of forming a government hinges on the number of seats won. Adly, who is also PH's candidate for the Bukit Katil state seat, reiterated that the focus should be on securing victories for their candidates in the state assembly elections, with the voters of Melaka being the key to their success.
