MELAKA, Oct 18 — Barisan Nasional (BN) will announce the list of candidates who will contest in the Melaka State Election (PRN) on October 28, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh.

“So, Insya-Allah, I will make the candidate announcement on October 28. Whoever the candidate may be, that is the candidate who will carry the waves of Umno and BN’s struggle,” he said in his speech at the launch of the Tangga Batu Parliamentary Election Machinery in Sungai Udang here last night.
