Aminuddin takes responsibility for PKR's performance during Negri state polls


AYER KEROH: Former Negri Sembilan Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun has apologised to PKR members for the party's defeat in the recent state election, stating he takes full responsibility for the performance.

Speaking during his winding-up speech at the 2026 PKR National Congress on Sunday (Aug 16), the PKR vice-president said he will accept whatever decision the party leadership makes regarding his future role.

“I don’t want to run from my responsibility and I don’t want to point fingers,” Aminuddin said.

He noted that political leaders must respect the democratic choices of voters and analyze the underlying reasons behind public rejection rather than shifting blame.

“When the people reject us, the question is not why did they not choose us but their reason for doing so. This is the question we must answer with full honesty and not look for a sacrificial lamb or find a way out,” he said.

Aminuddin also addressed calls from six Negri Sembilan PKR division chiefs who urged the party to review his position as state leadership council chairman following the election loss.

“I agree with their demands,” he said, acknowledging the position taken by the Jelebu, Rembau, Seremban, Rasah, Kuala Pilah and Tampin division leaders.
