Dr Zaliha Mustafa, Johor PKR chief, stated that PH was not surprised by BN's decision and is prepared to fight in a three-way contest, while Johor BN state chief Onn Hafiz Ghazi announced the state assembly's dissolution if elections are not held by April next year.
PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan is prepared to enter into three-cornered fights at the coming Johor elections, Dr Zaliha Mustafa said after Barisan Nasional announced today it would contest all 56 state seats.
Zaliha, the Johor PKR chief, said PH was not surprised by Johor BN’s decision to go solo.
“It was something we predicted,” she said. “PH is prepared to fight, and our coalition remains firm and steady for a three-cornered fight,” she told FMT. Johor PKR Youth chief Faezuddin Puad said the party took note of BN’s decision and vowed to go all out.
“Let the people decide,” he said. The Johor BN decision on the elections was announced earlier today by state BN chief Onn Hafiz Ghazi. The Johor state assembly will be automatically dissolved in April next year if an election is not held before then, after which the polls must be held within 60 days. BN formed the state government after winning 40 of the 56 seats in the March 2022 elections.
PH won 12 seats while Perikatan Nasional secured three, and Muda one. FMT has sought comments from Johor Amanah chief Aminolhuda Hassan and Johor DAP chief Teo Nie Ching on BN’s announcement.
