Politics : PM Anwar To Lead PH's Final Campaign Push In Melaka Tomorrow - Adam Adli

MELAKA, Nov 11 (Bernama) -- Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is scheduled to campaign in Melaka tomorrow in a final push to secure voter support ahead of polling day for the 16th Melaka State Election this Saturday.

On November 11, a tragic accident occurred in Melaka during the campaign trail for the upcoming election, claiming the life of J. Samivel, a 62-year-old deputy chief of the Alor Gajah PKR division. The incident occurred when Samivel's car collided with a lorry, which was reportedly transporting fruit. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who is also the chairman of Pakatan Harapan (PH), expressed his condolences for the loss, describing Samivel as a loyal party member who had served the struggle with dedication.

He called upon the nation to draw strength from Samivel's memory as they continue the fight for justice. The crash took place on Jalan Pondok Batang, close to the PH's main operations room for the Asahan seat. Police received the first report of the accident around 12:45 pm, and rescuers discovered Samivel trapped in the driver's seat, who was later pronounced dead by medical personnel.

Samivel's body was taken to Jasin Hospital's forensic unit for a post-mortem examination. The PH Election Department mourned the loss of a valuable contributor to the party, particularly for his tireless efforts during the state election campaign.
