Hamzah expects US-style ‘blue wave’ in Melaka
The Wawasan president says the US midterm elections should serve as a reminder for the government to pay attention to the people's needs.
Opposition leader Hamzah Zainudin foresees a political resurgence akin to the US midterm elections, or a "blue wave", in the upcoming Melaka state polls. This expectation stems from the coalition victory of BN and PN in the Negeri Sembilan state election, where they secured 25 of the 36 seats on Aug 1. Hamzah attributes this surge to the people's response to policies that have failed to alleviate the rising cost of living.
He stated, "We started a blue wave in Negeri Sembilan. America is copying us." If the American political shift was akin to a tsunami, he predicts a similar wave in Melaka. At a press conference in the Parliament building, he urged the government to heed the people's needs, particularly concerning cost of living, food security, and energy supply.
