JOHOR BAHRU, Sept 1 — PAS and Perikatan Nasional (PN) should prioritise their offers and agenda to bring change in Johor in their Pulai and Simpang Jeram by-election campaigns instead of spreading rhetoric about changes in the federal government.
Umno Youth vice-chief Mohd Hairi Mad Shah said this is because the people, especially the youth, are more interested in hearing about the agenda of improving economic standards than political rhetoric.
“The people are tired of hearing the absurd claims by PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang that the party’s victory will change the federal government.
“It is important for the state and federal governments to be the same,” he told reporters after the Bangsa Johor sports meet here today.
Hairi, who is Larkin assemblyman and Youth, Sports, Entrepreneur Development, Cooperatives and Human Resources Committee chairman, urged voters in Pulai and Simpang Jeram to ensure victory for the Pakatan Harapan candidate.
The by-elections were called following Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub’s death on July 23 due to a brain haemorrhage. He had held both seats.
Salahuddin, who was domestic trade and cost of living minister, was also Amanah deputy president.
The Election Commission has set polling for September 9, with early voting on September 5.
