SHAH ALAM: Pakatan Harapan's Kota Damansara candidate Muhammad Izuan Ahmad Kasim from PKR said he would focus only on issues and what he can offer to the people.
The 32-year-old said he would not touch on race and religion during his campaign trail.
“I will focus solely on finding solutions for the issues that are raised by the people of Kota Damansara.
“I understand that people were saying that I am not a local from Kota Damansara and I am not trying to be one.
“Given the mandate, I want the people to know what I can offer and would do my best for them,” he said during a ceramah held at Subang Bestari on Saturday (July 29).
Muhammad Izuan also said that his tagline for the constituency is “Kota Damansara, Kota Kita” (Kota Damansara, Our City) and that he spared no time to go on the ground to meet the people.
“I would like to meet as many people as possible and get to know the issues they brought up.
“For example, this morning I went to Kota Damansara PPR flats and found that faulty lifts are one of the major concerns for the people and I would discuss with the relevant parties to find a solution for that,” he said while addressing the crowd.
Also present were PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Selangor caretaker mentri besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari, Kota Damansara incumbent assemblyman Shatiri Mansor, Paya Jaras incumbent and candidate Mohd Khairuddin Othman as well as other PH and Barisan’s supporters.
Meanwhile, Amirudin said the unity government, consisting of four coalitions and 19 parties, is the new phase of political consensus (permuafakatan politik) in Malaysia.
“With 148 seats forming a two-thirds majority, this is a stable unity government,” he said, addressing the crowd.
