PH’s Hakimin wants to turn Ayer Molek into education, employment hub

Melaka PKR Youth chief Hakimin Mokhtar, the candidate for the Ayer Molek seat, aims to transform the constituency into an education and employment hub if elected in the upcoming state election on November 14. The 35-year-old Hakimin outlined his proposals, which stemmed from meetings with local residents, whose primary concern was securing employment opportunities in the area.

To achieve this vision, Hakimin envisions attracting higher education institutions like Mara colleges or polytechnics, as well as businesses that could drive the local economy by establishing operations in the region.

In addition, Hakimin proposed converting the state legislative assembly development and coordination committee (Japerun) complex into an open community service center. This center would be accessible to all residents, irrespective of their background or political affiliations, allowing them to voice concerns, seek assistance, and share their opinions.

Hakimin emphasized that an elected representative should remain accessible to the community, not limited to specific times or election periods, but always available when residents require help.

Hakimin also addressed other pressing issues faced by the residents, such as internet connectivity, flooding, and basic infrastructure problems that have remained unresolved by previous administrations. In the upcoming election, Hakimin will face off against Barisan Nasional candidate Mohd Ridhwan Mohd Ali for the Ayer Molek seat.
