KUALA LUMPUR – Pakatan Harapan’s (PH) popularity among Malays in the peninsula was at 10.2% as of October 2, this year, data from a survey showed.

The data as of October 2, by polling firm Merdeka Centre for Opinion Research, also showed that Barisan Nasional (BN) had the largest share of support from the Malay community, at 37%, while Perikatan Nasional (PN) had 14.6%.
However, a large chunk of Malays – at 34.9% – were undecided about which coalition they supported, while the remaining 3.3% went to “other parties”.
