On logo issue, PKR opts to shoot itself in the foot - superadmin - 01-28-2022

From Terence Netto

PKR are opting to contest under their own logo going into the Johor polls.

Their coalition partners, DAP and Amanah, are sticking by the Pakatan Harapan logo.

This is wise and contrasts with the PKR decision which is myopic.

The PKR choice prioritises sentiment above long-term strategy and flies in the face of the call for opposition unity by their supremo Anwar Ibrahim.

PKR announced which logo they will use days after Anwar himself had called on all opposition parties to unite under the “Big Tent” concept to face the Johor polls.

The call for unity was sensible, given the crowded field of opposition parties and the necessity to keep a confident Umno-BN from a decisive victory.
