MELAKA, Nov 2 — Pakatan Harapan (PH) has proposed holding open debates with Barisan Nasional (BN) candidates from MCA contesting four seats in the 16th Melaka state election, expanding a challenge initially directed at its candidate for the Banda Hilir seat.
PH Melaka deputy chairman Khoo Poay Tiong said the proposal followed MCA president Datuk Seri Wee Ka Siong’s challenge to the PH candidate for Banda Hilir to hold a debate in the constituency.
“PH therefore proposes that the debate be expanded to involve candidates from both parties in all four constituencies contested by MCA and PH.
“Our four candidates are Low Chee Leong for Kota Laksamana, Leng Chau Yen for Banda Hilir, Farzana Hayani Mohd Nasir for Kelebang and Ginie Lim for Machap Jaya,” he told a daily PH press conference at Bukit Piatu here today.
