Cabar Akmal in Umno stronghold, Ayu eyes surprise in Merlimau
Calon PH believes that the strength of the machinery of the opposing side is not the determining factor in the ballot box.
Rahayu Hamzah, a Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidate, is set to face off against Dr Akmal Saleh of Barisan Nasional (BN) in the Merlimau state constituency in Melaka's state election on Saturday. Dr Akmal won the seat with a 3,248-vote majority in the 2021 election. Rahayu, also known as Ayu Hamzah, aims to at least reduce the incumbent's majority, if not win the seat. He has vowed to serve all constituents regardless of their political affiliations if elected.
