  "account": "DAP has set its sights on retaining four seats won in the previous PRN Melaka election, namely DUN Kesidang, Kota Laksamana, Bandar Hilir and Ayer Keroh. Wong Kah Woh, the DAP National Election Chief, stated that the party will also aim to win three additional seats allotted by Pakatan Harapan (PH), namely DUN Gadek, Duyong and Pengkalan Batu. He said that DAP representatives from across the country will mobilize to support the campaign of seven candidates under the coordination of Khoo Poay Tiong, the Deputy Chairman of DAP in Melaka. \"We will make every effort not only to win the four seats we won in the last PRN but to win more than that,\" he said after inaugurating the DAP Kota Laksamana Election Operation Room. Also present were DAP Central Advisory Council Member Lim Hui Ying, Wong and DAP Kota Laksamana candidate Low Chee Leong. Wong added that for PRN this time, DAP will ensure the campaign is positive by focusing on the candidates' performance and service records, rather than playing identity politics. \"We will also highlight the record of the successful PH administration at the state and federal levels as one of the foundations for winning the trust of voters,\" he said. He said this is because Melaka voters are increasingly aware and willing to evaluate candidates who can represent and bring the interests of their respective areas. SPR has set tomorrow as the day for naming DAP Melaka PRN candidates, with polling on November 14th and early voting on November 10th.",
