KUALA LUMPUR, March 26 ― Umno will be contesting at least 80 seats at the upcoming 15th general election (GE15) and is confident of winning 70 to 80 of them, Umno Deputy President Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan said.
In an interview with Malay daily Utusan Malaysia, Mohamad said voters would no longer choose Pakatan Harapan (PH) based on its last performance ruling, but also not Perikatan Nasional (PN) due to Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia’s political “betrayal”.
“Malay voters will not vote for PN because Bersatu betrayed PH. PN will not get the Malay votes, because their supporters are divided between themselves and PH.
“Umno-Barisan Nasional still has its base supporters, our hardcore supporters,” he reportedly said.
