GEORGE TOWN – Penang Gerakan is hoping that it will be allowed to use its own logo in the looming 15th general election (GE15), said state party chairman Oh Tong Keong.
He said he has asked the party’s central committee to consider raising the matter with the Perikatan Nasional supreme council as he claimed that many people in Penang think Gerakan is still part of Barisan Nasional (BN).
“This could be a cause for the people to reject Gerakan in GE15,” he said in a statement today after the Penang Gerakan delegates’ conference, which was opened by party president Datuk Dominic Lau.
In the same statement, Lau said Gerakan would not repeat the mistakes it had made in previous by-elections and state polls.
“This is because GE15 is very important for Gerakan and as president I would ensure that the mistakes are rectified.
“But based on our reading, GE15 may not be held this year due to time constraints and also because several states under the administration of PAS and Pakatan Harapan do not support a dissolution (of Parliament now),” he added. – Bernama, September 18, 2022
