JOHOR BAHRU, June 6 (Bernama) -- The People’s Progressive Party (PPP) has expressed its intention to contest two state seats in the Johor state election, says PPP Malaysia president Datuk Dr J. Loga Bala Mohan.
He said the matter had been conveyed to Johor Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi during a meeting yesterday, but stressed that the party would accept any decision made by the coalition leadership.
“We give the Menteri Besar (Onn Hafiz) space to make a decision. We have an understanding with them (BN) and we will resolve this through consensus. We will not make any demand (if seats are not allocated),” he told a press conference after the sixth PPP Supreme Council meeting here today.
Loga Bala Mohan, who will lead the PPP election machinery in Johor, said the party would assist BN throughout the campaign for the state election.
In a related development, he said PPP also intended to contest two state seats in the Negeri Sembilan state election.
However, he said the matter had yet to be discussed with Negeri Sembilan BN leadership and would be negotiated at a later stage.
