  "account": "KOTA BARU: Perikatan Nasional (PN) has stated it is prepared to utilize the Pas logo in the upcoming Melaka election if it cannot use its own. The coalition's election director, Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor, indicated the PN would have no issue with competing under either the PN logo or the Pas moon symbol. The coalition is in the process of preparing for the upcoming election and has no objections to contesting under the alternative logo. Speaking at a gathering, Sanusi, who is also the Pas central election director, emphasized that the coalition is ready and poses no problem with using the Pas logo. The High Court recently granted PN a temporary stay against the Registrar of Societies' (RoS) suspension and deregistration of the coalition. The court's decision allows PN to continue functioning as a legitimate coalition while awaiting a judicial review. Despite the uncertainty surrounding its registration status, PN intends to continue operating and cooperating with its component parties, including Pas, for the general election scheduled for November 14.",
