Bersatu confirms use of own logo in Melaka state election

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

马六甲10月30日电马来西亚土团党（Bersatu）秘书长拿督斯里阿兹敏阿里表示，该党将在11月14日举行的第16届马六甲州选举中使用其官方党徽。

穆罕默德·阿兹明同时也是该党的选举主任，他表示，上周他已向选举委员会 (EC) 发出正式信函，确认该党在州选举中使用其标志的事宜。

“我们将使用土著团结党的标志。我已经致函选举委员会，土著团结党主席丹斯里慕尤丁·亚辛也已批准使用土著团结党的标志，”他昨天在这里对记者说。

昨晚，他在位于克勒邦拜图塔里克的土著团结党主要行动室主持了土著团结党马六甲州选举候选人宣布仪式后发表了上述讲话。

出席活动的还有土团党副主席拿督莫哈末拉兹博士吉丁。

莫哈末阿兹敏在评论土著团结党在马六甲州选举中竞选的八个席位时表示，所有这些席位都被认为有潜力被该党赢得。

据穆罕默德·阿兹敏称，虽然土著团结党预计会在四个竞争席位上与希望联盟（PH）的候选人发生冲突，即在吉勒邦（人民公正党）以及在加德、爱极乐和邦加兰峇都（民主行动党），但他们将最终的选择权留给了马六甲人民的智慧。

“在选举的背景下，重叠或冲突意味着相关各方将展开竞争，但我们认为这种竞争在民主制度中是一种健康的竞争。

“我们不会搞‘下流政治’或诽谤，我们会提出党的政策……我们是一个关心人民的政党，专注于经济、增长和创造就业机会等问题，”他还说。

莫哈末拉兹早前在活动中宣布，土团党将角逐八个州议席，即伦杜、加德、双溪乌当、班台昆多、吉里邦、彭卡兰峇都、爱极乐和文班。 — 马新社
