  "account": "Malaysia's Bersatu party may have doubts about Hasrat YB Hulk Norhizam Hassan Baktee's intention to contest again in Pengkalan Batu, as the party has not yet officially confirmed the candidate and the seat for the upcoming election. Norhizam, a former Adun of Pengkalan Batu and current deputy chief of Hang Tuah Jaya, has expressed his desire to return and serve the local community, claiming that the residents need his support. However, his previous statements indicate that the seat might not be included in the Bersatu list for the Melaka state election held five years ago. A Bersatu Melaka spokesperson, Hishamuddin Abdul Karim, stated that the party has not yet determined the candidate and the seat for the upcoming election, emphasizing that survival and party wins are of greater importance than individual ambitions.",
