‘Mandatory’: Khairy tells Umno and BN voters to back PAS in Bukit Katil
MELAKA, Nov 8 — Fewer than seven months after Umno formally welcomed him back, Khairy Jamaluddin is on the Melaka...
Khairy Jamaluddin, a former Umno Youth chief, has urged Barisan Nasional (BN) supporters to support the Perikatan Nasional (PN) and Pas candidate in Bukit Katil, Malaysia. He emphasized that cross-coalition backing is mandatory under their electoral understanding, particularly in areas where seats have been conceded to partner parties.
During a campaign stop in Duyong, Khairy stressed that Umno and BN voters must give their support to the PN-Pas candidate in Bukit Katil. He also highlighted that in areas like Duyong, where Pas did not contest, BN and Umno voters should deliver their votes for BN's candidate, Datuk Mohd Noor Helmy Abdul Halem.
Khairy appealed to the Malay-Muslim community, urging them to cooperate and support BN's number two candidate, Datuk Helmi, and other candidates from Umno and Barisan Nasional. He noted that ground readings across Melaka revealed genuine joint coordination down to voting district centers and branches, indicating that ground-level machinery is aligned with the seat-sharing strategy.
