Melaka polls: Respect Pakatan’s decision to give Bemban seat to Bersatu, Amirudin tells dissenters

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 28 — Pakatan Harapan (PH) component parties must respect the coalition’s decision to hand the Bemban state seat to a Bersatu candidate in the Melaka state election, says PH election director Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

Amirudin, who is also Selangor menteri besar, said party members must respect the consensus reached by the coalition and their respective leaderships regarding electoral pacts and seat allocations.

He said PH maintains an open approach to discussions, considering every possibility in determining the direction of its political partnerships.

“This is PH’s decision, and all party members should respect the coalition’s collective choice. In PH, we discuss matters openly, weighing all possibilities and probabilities,” he told reporters after opening the Gombak-Hulu Langat Geopark 2026 Re-evaluation Session at the Ampang Jaya Municipal Council (MPAJ) Convention Centre here yesterday.

Last Saturday, former Melaka DAP chairman Damian Yeo was reported to have said he was willing to quit politics rather than support PH’s move to hand over the Bemban seat to a Bersatu candidate in the state polls.

The former Duyong assemblyman reportedly cited past political betrayals that made it difficult to accept any proposed cooperation with Bersatu.

Meanwhile, Amirudin, who is also a PKR vice-president, said any decision to extend electoral pacts with Bersatu to the Sarawak state election or the 16th General Election (GE16) has not been finalised.

“So far, we have not been tested yet, and we will see what the outcome is after the Melaka state election,” he said.

On political ties between PH and Bersatu in Selangor, Amirudin said no decision has been reached, pending further deliberations.

“We will wait because it involves lengthy discussions. God willing, we will make a decision soon, possibly during or after the election,” he said. — Bernama

吉隆坡，10月28日——希盟选举总监拿督斯里阿米鲁丁沙里表示，希盟成员党必须尊重联盟在马六甲州选举中将文班州议席交给土团党候选人的决定。

雪兰莪州务大臣阿米鲁丁表示，党员必须尊重联盟及其各自领导层就选举协议和席位分配达成的共识。

他表示，菲律宾政府在讨论中秉持开放的态度，在确定政治伙伴关系的方向时会考虑每一种可能性。

“这是希望联盟的决定，所有党员都应该尊重联盟的集体选择。在希望联盟内部，我们公开讨论问题，权衡所有可能性和概率，”他昨天在安邦再也市议会（MPAJ）会议中心举行的2026年鹅唛-乌鲁冷岳地质公园重新评估会议开幕式后告诉记者。

据报道，上周六，前马六甲民主行动党主席杨达明表示，他宁愿退出政坛，也不愿支持希望联盟将本班议席交给土著团结党候选人参加州选举。

据报道，这位前杜永州议员援引了过去的政治背叛经历，表示难以接受与土著团结党的任何合作提议。

与此同时，同时也是人民公正党副主席的阿米鲁丁表示，是否将与土著团结党的选举协议延长至砂拉越州选举或第16届全国大选（GE16）的决定尚未最终确定。

“到目前为止，我们还没有受到考验，我们将在马六甲州选举之后看看结果如何，”他说。

关于希望联盟和土著团结党在雪兰莪州的政治关系，阿米鲁丁表示尚未做出任何决定，需进一步商议。

他说：“我们会等待，因为这需要长时间的讨论。如果一切顺利，我们会尽快做出决定，可能在选举期间或选举之后。”——马新社
