PKR not using PH logo in Johor because of ‘Mahathir stigma’

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: For many PKR members, Pakatan Harapan’s logo is a sore reminder of Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s time in the former ruling coalition, says a party leader explaining why PKR is contesting the Johor elections using its own logo.

PKR strategist Wong Chen said the decision made the party grassroots feel happier overall and the campaign team on the ground is happier and more committed.

“Most of our grassroots think of the PH logo as part of Dr Mahathir’s time in Pakatan, when to be fair (PKR president) Anwar Ibrahim and all of us were not inside,” he said.
