Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, the home secretary, urged political events to stop using the 3Rs in their campaigns next Tuesday. & nbsp,
The New Straits Times( NST ) quoted him as saying that” any 3R campaigns by those of religious stature can influence the conservative Muslim communities.” & nbsp,
Muhyiddin Yassin, chairman of the Perikatan Nasional( PN ), emphasized earlier that the coalition will not address 3R issues in an effort to win support for the upcoming state elections. & nbsp,
Local media reported that PN had formerly been charged with using racist language in its campaign to win over the majority of Malay Muslims. & nbsp,
Muhyiddin responded to the accusations last month by denying that this was the case and stating that the coalition would rather concentrate on populist concerns like the cost of living.
” Our goals have been very obvious. We’re not paying much attention to this( rhetoric ). In this scenario, where the majority of voters believe that the current unity government has certainly accomplished far, we are concentrating on what is frequently important to the people. Some people have even admitted failure, according to Muhyiddin.
PN, which is currently the opposition in the federal government, is made up of Parti Islam Se-Malaysia( PAS ), Parts Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia( Bersatus ), and Parte Gerakan Rakyat Malaysia.
According to a recent study, the 15th General Election ( GE15 ) in November of last year saw the most racial rhetoric played up by PAS and its president Abdul Hadi Awang. & nbsp,
The” biggest amplifiers of race ,” according to the report from Malaysia’s Centre for Independent Journalism ( CIJ ), were PAS and Mr. Abdul Hadi.
For instance, the report noted that Mr. Abdul Hadi’s TikTok post, which claimed that the Chinese-based DAP of PH was only using Malay candidates to increase voter turnout, garnered 2.5 million engagement counts — the highest on all social media platforms.
Kedah, Penang, Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Kelantan, and Terengganu are the state slated to keep their votes. According to local media, all six claims have dissolved their state meetings. & nbsp,
The Election Commission of Malaysia announced on Monday that it would hold a special appointment on Wednesday to talk about crucial polling dates, including the election date.
