PH should have highlighted vision for Melaka, says DAP man

PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan, which suffered a major setback in the Melaka elections, should have focused more on bread-and-butter issues in the run up to the polls, says a DAP man.

This was among the points highlighted on what the opposition could have done to avoid the disastrous outing on Saturday when the coalition won only five seats – far short of the 15 it won in 2018.

Bangi MP Ong Kian Ming said more local issues should have been presented in the days leading to the state election.

He said PH had not communicated a compelling vision of what the coalition’s state government would be like if it won the state polls.

He was speaking at a live session titled “Melaka state election 2021: Silver Linings for Pakatan Harapan” with moderator Wong Fook Meng, who is also a lawyer and former councillor for Hang Tuah Jaya.
