PH pergiat usaha raih sokongan pengundi muda

Pakatan Harapan (PH) is ramping up efforts to win the support of young voters, especially first-time voters, through a more targeted approach, according to PKR Youth Leader Kamil Munim. PH Youth Leader Kamil Munim stated that the campaign tactics need to adapt to the changing communication methods, particularly in reaching out to the younger generation who are more exposed to social media.

While social media is important as a campaign medium, face-to-face meetings with voters should not be overlooked. Each nominee must make every effort to meet with all voters in their respective constituencies, he said to reporters at the PH DUN Machap Jaya office in Batu Lesung. He has visited almost all PH-constituencies, with a few more to be visited in the remaining five days of the campaign as part of the effort to win voter support.

The party is also expected to intensify its efforts to reach out to voters in the second week of the campaign to persuade them about PH's offers, in addition to increasing the voter turnout percentage. Kamil hopes this positive momentum of the campaign can continue until polling day and will be more aggressive in the remaining days of campaigning to ensure that more voters are convinced.

Regarding the focus areas, he said that PH is currently giving attention to 15 DUN seats in the effort to get enough seats to form the state government. Each of the 15 targeted constituencies will work hard to ensure that there is a change in Melaka, he said. Returning Officer for the election stated that preliminary voting starts on November 10 and the actual voting day is November 14.
