Tread lightly around Malay institutions on campaign trail, analyst tells PH

Azmi Hassan says the coalition’s use of the Tabung Haji fiasco to attack Umno in the Negeri Sembilan polls failed to resonate with Malay voters.

Tread lightly around Malay institutions on campaign trail, analyst tells PH

Pakatan Harapan (PH) should refrain from attacking Malay institutions when campaigning in Melaka, according to political analysts. Azmi Hassan of Akademi Nusantara advised PH to focus on demonstrating how it can lead the state government better than Barisan Nasional (BN). Personal attacks on rival candidates are also counterproductive, as PH's aggressive criticism of Umno over the Tabung Haji (TH) fiasco in Negeri Sembilan did not resonate with voters.

The analyst suggested that PH must show voters how it can govern Melaka better than BN, which won the previous election in 2021.
