MELAKA, Oct 30 — Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) will use its official party logo in the 16th Melaka State Election on November 14, said its secretary-general Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali.

Mohamed Azmin, who is also the party election director, said he had sent an official letter to the Election Commission (EC) last week regarding the confirmation of the party’s logo usage in the state election.

“We will use the Bersatu logo. I have sent a letter to the Election Commission and the use of the Bersatu logo has been approved by Bersatu president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin,” he said to reporters here yesterday.

He said this after officiating the Bersatu Candidate Announcement Ceremony for the Melaka State Election at the party’s main operations room in Baitul Tariq, Klebang, here last night.

Also present at the event was Bersatu vice-president Datuk Dr Mohd Radzi Md Jidin.

Commenting on the eight seats contested by Bersatu in the Melaka State Election, Mohamed Azmin said all those seats were seen as having the potential to be won by the party.

According to Mohamed Azmin, although Bersatu is expected to clash with the Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidates in the four contested seats, namely in Kelebang (PKR) as well as Gadek, Ayer Keroh and Pangkalan Batu (DAP), however, they leave it to the wisdom of the people of Melaka to make their choice.

“In the context of elections, overlap or clashes mean that the parties involved will compete, but we take the stance that this competition is a healthy competition in a democratic system.

“We will not practice ‘gutter politics’ or slander, we will offer party policies... we are a party that cares for the people, focusing on issues of the economy, growth and job creation,” he also said.

Earlier, at the event, Mohd Radzi announced that Bersatu will contest in eight State Assembly seats namely Lendu, Gadek, Sungai Udang, Pantai Kundor, Kelebang, Pengkalan Batu, Ayer Keroh and Bemban. — Bernama
