Melaka PH deputy chairman Khoo Poay Tiong urges the Election Commission to investigate the alleged misuse of state assets ahead of Saturday’s polls.
MELAKA: Melaka Pakatan Harapan (PH) deputy chairman Khoo Poay Tiong has alleged that more than 500 billboards belonging to government agencies in the state are being used to campaign for Barisan Nasional (BN) candidates in the 16th Melaka state election.
The Kota Melaka Member of Parliament said the billboards, which previously displayed National Day and Malaysia Day celebration materials, had been replaced with photographs of BN candidates and their campaign materials.
Khoo, who is also Melaka DAP chairman, said the move raised questions about the use of government assets for political campaigning and called on the Election Commission (EC) to take stern action if electoral laws had been breached.
