After logo row, Pakatan cannot agree on choice for top post


JOHOR BARU: Pakatan Harapan, already split over the choice of logo to use in the Johor election, is now facing another divisive question –who will be the “poster boy” for the polls? Two former ministers are facing off for the mentri besar’s post if the Opposition wins.

It is learned that PKR wants former education minister Dr Maszlee Malik while DAP and Parti Amanah Negara are rooting for former Pulai MP Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub, a former agriculture and agro-based industry minister.
