PH ready to face BN-PN alliance in Penang, says Chow
The state PH chairman says the alliance can make its way into the state through Nibong Tebal, Kepala Batas, Bukit Mertajam and eventually the island.
Penang's Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Chow Kon Yeow has stated that the coalition is ready to face a potential Barisan Nasional-Perikatan Nasional (BN-PN) alliance in the upcoming state election. Following the Melaka state election, where BN and PN secured 24 out of 28 seats, Chow believes the PH must prepare for the challenge.
He emphasized that PH would act swiftly to ensure readiness for the next election. The chairman also criticized the political environment where federal partners in Putrajaya compete against each other at the state level. Chow highlighted the novelty of this political scenario in Malaysia. Additionally, he condemned PAS President Abdul Hadi Awang's remarks regarding non-Muslim leadership as unacceptable, urging Hadi to apologize.
The criticism came after Hadi's remarks at a campaign rally, where he deemed non-Muslim governance as tyrannical and urged Muslims to vote for the Muslim-led government.
