PM urges Melaka voters to reject exploiters of religion, corrupt individuals

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has called upon the voters of Melaka to reject those who exploit religion for political gain and those involved in corruption during the upcoming state election, according to a Facebook post published today. The Prime Minister, who serves as the chairman of Pakatan Harapan, highlighted the misuse of religion by some individuals to legitimise support for corrupt individuals and demonise their opponents.

He urged Melaka's voters to send a strong message through their ballots, stating that the current attitude of tolerating corruption has damaged the country for too long. The 16th Melaka State Election will see 675,166 eligible voters, with a target turnout of 70 percent.
