COMMENT | The PSS issue could tip the balance of power in BN’s favour if it is not handled well by Warisan.
On Saturday, the people in Kimanis will once again go to the polls. The more than 29,000 voters will decide whether it is Warisan/Pakatan Harapan or Umno/BN.It is a litmus test for both Warisan and Umno. Warisan’s performance in the by-election is a reflection of its popularity. The by-election will gauge the people’s feelings and support towards the Harapan-Warisan-UPKO-led government.
As the by-election is a do or die mission for both parties, choosing the “right” candidate is crucial. Warisan has chosen to field Karim Bujang, a former Umno stalwart and state assemblyman for Bongawan, while Umno has fielded Mohamad Alamin, the Kimanis Umno divisional head. This is an interesting partnership, one without a structured platform but a common issue as a basis for strategic cooperation.
Thus, without an effective communication strategy and a long-term plan to address the issue of illegals, the PSS will continue to be Warisan’s weak point.
