KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 16 — Pakatan Harapan (PH) is confident of winning the upcoming Melaka state election, while acknowledging that the outcome ultimately rests with voters.

The coalition’s election director, Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari, said PH would announce its candidates for the state election on Oct 24, after he finalises the list with the coalition’s president and top party leaders.

“I am confident we will win, God willing. Politicians will always be asked whether they are confident of winning. But the outcome is determined by the voters,” he told reporters when asked about PH’s prospects in the Melaka polls.

Amirudin, who is also the Selangor menteri besar, said the candidates had been identified about two years ago, adding that the line-up would comprise individuals of different ages and backgrounds, including professionals and those with political experience.
