SEGAMAT: Pakatan Harapan is targeting outstation voters, particularly those from rural pockets in Johor’s northern region, to exercise their democratic rights in the state election.
Johor PKR chairperson Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa said the economic imbalance, affecting north Johor, has historically driven local talent away from their hometowns.
“These outstation voters need to choose the right government that could develop their hometowns. We have to bring them back and make them realise that they have to play their roles in choosing the best government for Johor and working together with the federal government,” she here yesterday, Bernama reported.
Zaliha also dismissed any threat from the newly formed Parti Bersama as the party has minimal visible presence.
The Election Commission has set July 11 as polling day for the Johor state election, with nomination day taking place on Saturday.
