Dr Yadzil seeks bigger victory in Bemban

Dr Yadzil Yaakub secured the state seat in the 2021 Melaka elections, outpacing his opponents by 328 votes. Perikatan Nasional (PN) is aiming for an even greater success in the upcoming Bemban constituency election on November 14. Dr Yadzil, the incumbent, opted not to disparage his competitors but instead to emphasize his own qualifications and what he can offer to the voters.

He expressed his preference for a healthy contest, focusing on his strengths and contributions to the people. Yadzil, who will face Rabaie Ab Hamid from Bersatu, Dr Solehin Saleh from Bersama, and independent candidate Abd Halim Said, will be seeking more PN victories in the upcoming election, though the exact number will depend on the campaign's trajectory.

The party aims to connect with voters from diverse ethnic backgrounds, particularly the Chinese community, through personal interactions and understanding their concerns. To gather insights, PN is forming several groups to engage with the community and listen to their aspirations. Acknowledging local challenges, Yadzil stressed the need for more attention towards the development of Malay settlements in urban and suburban areas, citing concerns about residents bearing the financial burden.

Additionally, he highlighted recurring issues such as floods and inadequate sanitation, calling for comprehensive solutions to address these problems.
